Drake is getting blasted on X, formerly Twitter, for showing online support for the currently incarcerated Tory Lanez. In an Instagram Story post, Drake calls for the freedom of Tory Lanez which has sparked a barrage of online criticism.
Drake, 37, shared an image of Tory Lanez to his Story feed with the words under the photo reading “3 You,” which many assume to be suggesting freedom for Lanez. Lanez, 31, was found guilty in 2022 of felony assault for shooting and injuring Megan Thee Stallion. In August of 2023, Lanez was officially sentenced to 10 years behind bars in connection to the matter.
Several Hip-Hop figures and fans on social media seemed to side with Lanez during his legal ordeal with Megan Thee Stallion, with many believing that the shooting incident never took place among other unproven yet heavily discussed theories.
There have also been shots taken via songs towards Megan Thee Stallion, including a perceived shot from Drake on the song “Circo Loco” from his joint album with 21 Savage, Her Loss. However, 21 Savage claims that the Canadian superstar was not pointing his verse in that direction.
Despite that clarification from the Atlanta rapper, some believe that Drizzy holds some manner of animosity towards women rappers and that his support of Tory Lanez qualifies those assumptions. We’ve got reactions from X below.
The way drake and Tory was beefing with each other and didn’t get cool until after he shot meg. Dick riding ass niggas

It’s bigger than Megan. It’s bigger than Rihanna. It’s bigger than that list of exes. It’s scorned lover boy to red medicine 💊 community virtue signaling

I’m convinced that Drake went from a regular loser to a dangerous redp*ll loser starting in 2020.
A whole lot of celebs got completely steamrolled by the algorithms (and their comment sections) when they were stuck at home on their phones with the rest of us. https://t.co/RXsdUiosaC

Drake’s actions are so corny. He is NOT someone I’m willing to separate from the music. All of it can go

I told y’all years ago when Drake linked back up with CB because Rih rejected him how terrible he was. Man did all that performing and fake hating bruh when he thought it was gonna be him. Soon as he realized it wasn’t, he did that to “punish” her

Why y’all shocked by Drake’s behavior? Besides that Circo Loco mess, he was quick to like Tory’s post about not having nothing to apologize for. I just hope Drizzy downloaded JPay and sets up those cojugal visits so Tory can see his scars up close and personal😂
