Singer Tank paid homage and share a heartfelt message.

“I want to speak as a 12-year-old kid who was trying to figure out his musical DNA, where he wanted to go and where he wanted to be,” he said. “I put on my father’s headphones from the record player and the album was Guy. I proceeded to be inspired and to understand and to learn what greatness is.”

Filled with humility, the singer thanked his friends, family, colleagues, and supporters.

“I love yall all and thank you for being here and thank you for supporting me and supporting the music and receiving it and we got more to go.”

Congrats Teddy!!! Check out some of the photos below.
