In the details of the petition, the “Say It” singer wrote a lengthy message in which he denounces cancel culture and also questions the lack of support for black men.

“We are watching the industry and fake cancel culture remove all of our legendary black men , black celebrities and black moguls …..from festivals , from our culture and from our lives, and it starts with us …. we must make a change .. so we can keep our black men thriving.”

He continued,

“We stood for equal rights of black men 2 years ago with GEORGE FLOYD .. what changed from “then to now” in regards of the protection of BLACK MEN … “a man is not his craft … and the craft should never be judged by the man“ don’t let them use our personal life situations to make fake stories that have been misconstrued to hinder and taint our legacies.”

He ends with,

“STAND FOR US … WE ARE THE BACK BONE OF CULTURE . If we lose this fight we lose the HEAD of the same culture that we have known and loved and OWNED for the last 2000 years … the BLACK MAN NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED . The first step is PROTECTING OUR CULTURE !! HELP US” 

Tory Lanez’s petition, which currently has 794 signatures, comes in the wake of a petition to remove Kanye West from the Coachella music festival lineup due to his recent social media attacks on Kim Kardashian, Pete Davidson, D.L. Hughley, and Trevor Noah. That petition has garnered over 35,000 signatures since being launched last week.

Tory Lanez is no stranger to controversy himself! As previously reported, Megan Thee Stallion accused Tory of shooting her in the foot July 2020 while she was walking away from a vehicle they were both in. Initially, Megan didn’t name who was responsible for shooting her. However, she eventually came forward and alleged that Tory shot her. The federal assault case went to trial in February and is set to resume in April.
