Tory Lanez Shares ‘Free Tory’ Playlist And Updates ‘Live From Prison’ Amid 10-Year Jail Sentence: ‘First Of Its Kind’
Tory Lanez has announced his plan to release a 'Free Tory' playlist from behind bars while serving his prison sentence.
On Wednesday, the 31-year-old released a recording of himself confirming that he and his team have figured out how to record and engineer new music while he's in prison, claiming they've managed to keep the quality "professional."
"After about 20 something to 30 something ... 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. It's over — I done cracked the code," Lanez exclaimed in his recorded message to fans. "This means not even these prison walls can stop me from dropping new music. It's crazy!"
The Canadian born rap star revealed the "all new" 'Free Tory' playlist which will be updated weekly that he will record "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," he said.

Lanez, real name Daystar Peterson, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting and injuring fellow rap star Megan Thee Stallion following a pool party hosted by 'The Kardashians' star Kylie Jenner.
Los Angeles Superior Court judge David Herriford handed the musician three felonies — including assault with a semi-automatic firearm, having a loaded unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence, per 'TIME.'
The 31-year-old went viral casually freestyling lyrics during Adin Ross' livestream in 2021, which has since garnered over 10 million views. In August 2021, the lyricist went platinum in two minutes after the debut of his first NFT album 'When It's Dark' — which he claims sold 1 million copies in 57 seconds, per 'Rap-Up.'
The collection of music he calls "The Prison Tapes" is set to be released on July 26 at midnight.
