Rihanna let Yung Baby Tate know that she is not alone after online trolls began body-shaming the 25-year-old earlier this week.

The Georgia rapper has been fighting off haters since the beginning of this week when photos surfaced of Tate's performance where some online users deemed her to look "unflattering."

“I really been going off on b------ for 2 days straight,” Tate tweeted out earlier this week. “It’s always people with the least going on with the most to say. MY BODY is MY BODY to work on or NOT!”

The rapper then retweeted a message from MEFeater Magazine that celebrated her body which she responded, "Beautiful at ALL stages!!!! Skinny, bloated, thick, in the gym, being lazy, etc etc etc."

However, things started to come around for the Georgia rapper when she revealed that Rihanna DM'd her looking to potentially collab.

“I’m really crying y’all Rihanna just dmd me,” Tate tweeted and later commented, “Y’all gone be so mad when I link with Savage X Fenty in this bomb a-- body of mine.”

Tate who is a long-time fan of the business mogul is in complete disbelief that Rihanna slid in her DMs, "Rihanna is one of my biggest LIFE inspirations like I did a fkn PowerPoint project on this woman in 8th grade man I can’t believe the words she just shared with me. #RichGutGang 4L"

Tate didn't say exactly what the Fenty Beauty founder told her but we are looking forward to a potential Yung Baby Tate/Rihanna collab sometime in the near future.
