Tory Lanez on Son's Birth & Getting Arrested Same Day (HNHH Interview 2017)

Tory Lanez reflects on "I Told You" versus what to expect from his sophomore album in our full 40-minute interview. The Toronto-bred native also reveals details about his son, Kai, his Miami arrest (those two things popped off the same day), his mainstay producers (Play Picasso and Benny Blanco specifically), "industry plants," whether or not he thinks he's an industry outsider, and a lot more.
Watch the full interview above, which we've very lightly edited for clean-up, but for all intents and purposes, you're getting the unabridged full interview.

im so proud of Tory. he was homeless, his mom passed, his grandma kicked him out, and he had to go and get it. I feel like this man has favor. Keep God first Tory and keep being immensely amazing!

[@christopherwood2749]

I aint gon lie tory lanez is killin the baldy look

[@carlanthony332]

Y'all hate when the man has a wack line up, now y'all mad 😡 cuz he bald 😹😹😹

[@PPCCO.]

I can tell he spent a lot of time with play picasso because his dialect and accent changes when thinking about the past times. it's dope to see people come up together and remain loyal.

[@STREETPRODZBMX]

Interview tips: Say "Like' less Think of the question you want to get across before you start speaking Let the person getting interviewed finish what they're saying

[@SwagBari]

When he said conflicts of my soul.....really took me back to how far he came from Always had faith in him since 2012...he kept his promise made in Remembrance Day

[@r.e.z.nbdstudio]

JahIttsBari You're a real one for peeping the message on that Mixtape Cover 💯

[@lowkey2299]

[@cameronjackson5409]

Lowkey22 I think that's gone mess up the flow or ruin the integrity or originality of his sound

[@lajuanlong6623]

Cameron Jackson nah I don't think so, it might have a cool ass effect if they like switch out every bar for one of the songs, like back to back bars from both

[@andrewusuck]

He wrote for Travis before

[@louieloveslondon11]

Lowkey22 no

[@anthonylynch423]

Lowkey22 that would be a goat status tape legendary shit

Patients supported by methods that certainly maintain enough blood circulation and oxygenation for sustaining life during stopped heartbeat and breathing, such as cardiopulmonary bypass, are not customarily considered clinically dead. All parts of the body except the heart and lungs continue to function normally. Clinical death occur

[@HotNewHipHop]

Drake🤔🤔🤔

[@cheezedadada]

I'm assuming there's going to be a Migos feature based on a snippet of them in the studio. I know a lot of people are also hoping for a Drake feature too. That would definitely be a hit...
