Tory Lanez Drops Highly Anticipated Album "The New Toronto 3"
By: Omar Cook
Tory Lanez dropped his highly anticipated 5th studio album The New Toronto 3. This album marks the last album that Tory is contractually obligated to release through Interscope Records after creative differences with the label.
This album puts Tory center stage as he only has 2 features on the entire 16 track album with Lil Tjay and Mansa as opposed to his last project Chixtape 5 which had a host of star studded features. Tory admitted that a lot of the music he put over the past 4 years were songs to get fans by and fill his quota, as he neared the end of his deal. On his track “Letter To The City 2”, he details his frustrations about his experience during the past few years dealing with his label.
Tory built a major recent buzz lately capitalizing on most of the world being stuck in the house due to the pandemic by creating a live instagam series which he calls “Quarantine Radio”, which has gathered hundreds of thousands off viewers at a time. Perfect timing to drop his album, which definitely did not disappoint.
The album features a vibe for just about anyone from turn up tracks like “Stupid Again” to more mellow tracks like “Penthouse Red”. Tory is one of the few artists that has the versatility to switch between raw rap lyrics to singing R&B. The project is fire to say the least and if this is foretelling of whats to come from Tory, expect some dope creative releases real soon as an independent artist. Check out the project below.
