Tory Lanez remains seemingly unbothered about his fate after being sentenced to 10 years for shooting Megan Thee Stallion. Just days after the “Say It” singer was sentenced, he took to Instagram to promote his new “Free Tory” merch line. The black and white merch line includes t-shirts and hoodies with Tory’s face surrounded by the words “FREE TORY.”
The announcement received mixed responses from his followers, with most of them blasting the timing and the clothing’s message. One user wrote, “Marketing from prison is crazy,” and another added, “I’m roasting anyone I catch with this corny sh*t on.” When the merch was reposted on Twitter, people were quick to express their disappointment. One person wrote, “WE WILL NOT BE BUYING,” and another added, “Nobody ever got freed from saying ‘Free.’”
The merch came shortly after the rapper/singer broke his silence on the case and remained adamant about being “wrongfully convicted.” He wrote in part, “I have never let a hard time intimidate me. I will never let no jail time eliminate me. Regardless of how they try to spin my words, I have always maintained my innocence and I always will.” In court, Lanez took full responsibility for the shooting, telling the judge, “If I could change it, I would, but I can’t.” However, in his Instagram post he said he was only taking “responsibility for all verbal and intimate moments that I shared with the parties involved… That’s it. In no way shape or form was I apologizing for the charges I’m being wrongfully convicted of. I remain on the stance that I refuse to apologize for something that I did not do.”
