Rapper and Florida native Plies was brought to tears after discovering that students in his hometown paid tribute to him in a classroom. The emotional moment, which he shared on Instagram, left him overwhelmed with gratitude and appreciation.
In the heartfelt post, Plies described the tribute as unlike anything he had ever experienced—more meaningful than any accolade or material possession. “I type this with tears running outta my eyes & a feeling casted over me like I’ve never felt before!” he wrote.
This reminds us of the emotional video that circulated on social media with Baton Rouge rapper Boosie Badazz, who was seen breaking down in tears after reuniting with one of the most influential people in his life: his favorite teacher.
Though details about the school and teacher behind the tribute remain unknown, the impact on Plies was undeniable. The students’ recognition of his influence resonated deeply, making him feel truly appreciated. “Nothing, I mean nothing, has ever pierced me & made me feel so appreciated!” he continued.
Plies, known for his raw and unfiltered voice in hip-hop, has long been a figure of inspiration in his community. Whether through his music or social media reflections, he often shares wisdom with young people, encouraging them to pursue success and make positive choices. This time, it was the students who uplifted him, reinforcing his sense of purpose.
“Your acknowledgment has given me so much ‘purpose,’” he expressed, urging them to embrace their potential. “Make no doubt about it, your futures can & will be even brighter. Let God lead you & be the change you wanna see!”
The rapper, visibly moved, admitted that he hadn’t cried in years, but this tribute broke that emotional barrier. “I didn’t think in a million years I could even cry anymore,” he confessed. “But this has brought it out of me!”
With a deep connection to his roots, Plies ended his message with a promise to engage further, signing off with a heartfelt salute to Fort Myers: “2-3-9er Ft Myers 4 life! Tears of joy!”
His reaction struck a chord with fans, many of whom flooded the comments with love and support. The moment serves as a powerful reminder of the impact artists can have beyond their music—and the profound ways communities can show appreciation in return.
