Canadian rapper Tory Lanez, who is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020, is set to give his first prison interview.

The interview will be conducted by popular streamer Adin Ross and is expected to be broadcast live for the world to see.

Tory Lanez’s trial garnered significant public attention. However, the outcome was not as some had anticipated. Despite claims from certain quarters that there was insufficient evidence to convict Lanez on all three charges and suggestions that a third party was responsible, Lanez was ultimately sentenced to prison.

Since his incarceration, Lanez has maintained a relatively low profile. Apart from occasional musical releases, he has refrained from giving any interviews. This silence has only heightened the anticipation among his fans, eager to hear his side of the story.

According to Ross, that wait is about to end. Lanez knows his fans’ eagerness and is ready to break his silence. The upcoming interview promises to shed light on Lanez’s experiences in prison and his legal team’s ongoing efforts to secure his release.

The interview is expected to be a significant event, not just for Lanez’s fans but also for those interested in the broader narrative surrounding his case. As such, it will likely attract a large audience eager to hear what Lanez has to say.

Tory Lanez to appeal 10-year conviction

Meanwhile, Tory Lanez continues to fight for his freedom after being convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020.

The rapper, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, has filed an appeal to overturn his verdict and sentence, which could land him in prison for up to 10 years.

According to journalist Meghann Cuniff, who has covered the case from the beginning, the appeal process is not yet reflected in the court records, but she promised to share any updates as they happen. Cuniff also reported that Lanez was denied bail on Thursday as he awaits the outcome of his appeal.
