Tammy Rivera has plenty to be thankful for.

The reality star recently took to Instagram to disclose how much she’s accomplished in her life. Before her marriage to her now estranged husband, rapper Waka Flocka, and becoming an entrepreneur, Rivera’s humble beginnings started in Baltimore, Maryland, where her mother raised her.

Rivera’s father, Oscar Rivera, is currently in jail for a second-degree murder charge and has been incarcerated for the majority of his daughter’s life. In the post shared on June 20, Rivera explained that when she was going to her store, she parked her truck next to another vehicle she owned. 

While the 35-year-old’s assistant captured an image of that particular moment, Rivera wrote, “”Pulled up to my store the other day with Starbucks for the team… as I stepped out my truck I realized I was parked by my other truck… I just told my asst. Take a pic real quick, As I looked up and Thanked God! Sometimes you don’t realize how hard you’ve worked or how far you’ve come.. #LivInTheMoment #IChoosePeace#GodIsGood”” 

As fans viewed Rivera’s post, many raved over all she achieved, from having a newly launched skin care line to owning a fashion boutique. 

“Humble flex.”

“Good for you, you deserve it!”

“Yesss i love it girl Black Excellence !! Well deserved!!!!”

“Amazing Talented for sure … May god continue to bless you through your journey. Dope.”

“Period Tammy … keep focusing on yourself you gon win … moving on.”

Among the previous remarks, a couple of social media users called out Rivera for using that moment to show off what appeared to be her vehicles. One wrote, “Bye just say you wanted to show both of your cars lol.”

Another said, “So you drove one car to work one day, left it there, forgot it was there and was reminded once you got out of your other car??? Lmfao Chile a pictured of the cars and a ‘blessed’ caption would have sufficed.”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
