“I know they’ll appreciate it,” said Kodak Black. “Show these women they’re queens, they’re strong, they’re going to get through it. Pray with them, we’re going to get through it together.”

It was a sentiment that was felt by the woman attending the event.

“It means a lot to me,” said Taressa Hall, who is currently fighting breast cancer. “It makes me continue to fight. It encourages me to go through this journey, continue through this journey and it encourages me to be a witness to other people that we all can survive.”
