Tory Lanez is asking fans to focus on his music rather than his personal controversies. Following the release of his latest album, Peterson, the embattled artist took to Instagram to share his thoughts. “Separate art from the artist and just enjoy your life… it’s really not that deep g lol,” he wrote over a black screen.
Despite Lanez’s plea, Peterson debuted at a modest No. 25 on the Billboard 200, a noticeable drop from his previous projects. The album’s performance suggests that the legal troubles surrounding his 2020 shooting case involving Megan Thee Stallion may still be impacting his career.
While some fans continue to support him, others argue that separating the artist from their actions isn’t always so simple. As the discourse continues, Lanez remains behind bars, serving a 10-year sentence for the incident.
