All of the icon’s 15 children took the stage, but it was his baby girl, Sonovah Junior, who especially tugged at the hearts of many fans. Sonovah showed off her talent and her love for her father when she dedicated a song to the late artist.
“I’m growing, I’m learning, to hold my head up/My daddy’s still holding my hand, so I gotta stand up,” the young artist said in her song.

She also rapped about the lessons she learned from her father.
“He taught me to be strong, but it’s OK to be afraid/‘Cause sometimes it’ll show you how to be brave,” Sonovah said. “I never give up, I give it all/‘Cause I know I’m big, even though I look small/Lookin’ at my daddy’s picture on the wall… My brothers and sisters, we all stand together/Throw up the X, daddy forever.”
