đ The Long version đ
Dear Barbz,
Today is the day. The final installment of the #PinkFriday2 era begins today. Thank you for your continued love & support. Thank you for wishing my team & me, well. Thank you for being the best humans on earth. This is my first time doing 2 headline tours in one calendar year- (as #PapaBearâs mama @ that)⌠So Iâd be lying if I said itâs been âeasyâ. I just keep reminding myself that one thing I learned & promised myself Iâd never ever forget the last time I saw you, is that no matter how I feel when I walk ON stage, I feel a million times better when I walk off. Physically tired of course, but in high spirits. Idk what it is really, but you guys have a way of putting things back into perspective for me w/o knowing or trying to.
The unexpected rush of all these incredible, adorable, precious, magical, majestic, fun, funny, uplifting, emotional, uniquely layered, carefully crafted, multi faceted, powerful, vulnerable, vivid, bright, crystal clear, stunning, reassuring, fleeting memories all start flooding back & I think to myselfâŚ
maybe it was all worth it đ
One day, weâll look back at this moment & probably REALLY grasp the FULL magnitude of what weâve achieved together, the hurdles we LEAPED over together, the bonds we made, the friendships we formed- unwittinglyâŚ
You know how sometimes you think about how a current situation will play out in your head years from now? Like if youâll still feel that same feeling later on? Like would you feel that same rage, fear, passion, sadness, happiness, etc. I just have this strong feeling that we will smile when we think back on the year 2023 & 2024. The album, the tour, the footage, the photos, the inside jokes. The chucky memes, the pussy pot pies, the Nicki trivia, the accurate âfoot on neck seasonâ prediction, etc.
Anyway, today the 2nd leg of the tour BEGINS & we finna do what need to be done BOOKIE!!!!!!!
OK?!??!!!!!!!!!!
OK!!!!!!!
Love you ALWAYS,
HB
