Tory Lanez says his fans are about to be flooded with music and that he will be dropping music every week from behind bars.
Lanez, real name Daystar Peterson, was sentenced in August to 10 years in prison after being convicted of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, having a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.
He is currently serving his time at North Kern State Prison in Delano, California, where multiple inmates have been murdered over the past year.
“After about 20-something to 30-something f-ck-ups and mistakes, me and my engineer have finally figured out how to record music over the jail phone and still keep the quality as professional as I had it on the street,” he said in a recorded call posted to his Instagram. “It’s over. I done cracked the f-cking code, man. This means that not even these prison walls can stop me from dropping new music. It’s crazy.”
He added, “That being said, I’m about to start dropping hot heaps of coal on y’all head top. I’m dropping the all new ‘Free Tory’ playlist – it’s gon’ be updated every week with new music that I’m recording from prison in real time. This is the first of its kind, and although God has already shown me that this moment is only temporary, it speaks testimony to the fact that no matter where they put me, they can’t lock down my spirit, my ambition, my soul, my passion, nor my destiny.”
