Jay-Z is not the only popular artist Tony has worked with.  On The Rap Game, Jermaine Dupri revealed that Royster has also worked with Rihanna.  Dupri is doing a great job showing kids that there are numerous music related careers available.  Everyone wants to be Beyonce but Tony Royster Jr. is proof that you can have a successful career as a musician without being as famous as Beyonce.
