On Monday (Sept. 25), Tory Lanez shared a message to fans in his first phone call from behind bars. “Ayo, Umbrellas, man. What’s good?” Lanez began in the audio recording, which was shared to all of his social media accounts. “I’m talking to you live from prison right now. I’m just happy to get out that bulls**t county jail. They was hating on a young fly n**ga, you heard? Had me on 24-hour lockdown, half-sized cell by myself. No windows. No mirrors. N**ga ain’t even seen himself in a whole year.”
He continued, “With all them disadvantages against me, my head has always been held high, man. I want y’all to know I’m in great spirits. My drive and my ambition is growing stronger and stronger every day. And I’m so proud of how y’all been moving in my support, man. I know this feels like a scary time, but don’t be afraid. This s**t don’t spark no fear in my heart at all. In fact, I’m more prepared than ever.”
Lanez closed the call by revealing new tunes that followers can soon expect from him. “The music, the videos, and all the projects you wanted, they all ready to drop. So let’s just start with the one that we want most… Alone At Prom (Deluxe),” the Canadian artist announced. The project will serve as an updated version of 2021’s Alone At Prom, a conceptual, ’80s-inspired offering that saw him as the alter ego Ashton Rain, an amalgamation of Hall & Oates, Toto, Michael Jackson, Rick James, and more.
As previously reported by REVOLT, Lanez is currently serving a 10-year sentence after being found guilty in the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion back in 2020. He was denied bail during an appeal earlier this month.
