After missing out on presents from Santa, the rapper promises to spread love the best way she knows how. Telling her younger sister in the story: “One day, I’ll give out gifts to whoever you are. I won’t use a list and I’ll fly in my car. I’ll give the gift we all want. The gift sweeter than honey. I’ll find a way to give everyone – money.”
