"'Pon de Replay' is where it all began... 15 years later and I'm here because God led me to you, and you guys have held me up, supported me, tolerated me, loved me, kept it too real with me, and we gon always be connected because of that! (sic)" she said of the song.

The Barbadian singer also thanked 'Navy', her fan group, for standing by her over the years.
