Trina shares her side of the story, clarifying their friendship.
Tory Lanez is getting nostalgic as he gears up for the streaming release of his mixtape ‘Lost Cause.’ The rapper recently took to Instagram to thank Trina for her support during his early struggles to make a name for himself.
Reflecting on the past, Lanez shared how ten years ago, he was broke and trying to create his unique sound. He wasn’t even able to afford a home, sleeping in his girlfriend’s car and on his manager’s couch. Yet, amidst these struggles, Trina offered him a lifeline.
Lanez recounted a memory of sharing his song ‘Godfather’ with Trina. She foresaw its potential and predicted it would land him a record deal. Indeed, her instincts proved accurate as Lanez soon signed with Interscope, in partnership with Mad Love Records.
Trina’s support went beyond lending her confidence; she also invested financially. Lanez recalled how she put up money for a video, which caught the attention of Interscope. This support played a significant part in leading to his eventual signing.
Despite rumors, Trina clarified that their relationship was purely platonic. She mentioned meeting Lanez through mutual friends after a studio session, emphasizing their bond was over music. While they worked together on tracks like ‘Fuck Love,’ romantic speculation was unfounded.
The decision to release ‘Lost Cause’ is a celebration of Lanez’s journey and transformation over the years. Despite being independent now, he appreciates Trina’s role in shaping his career.
In the world of hip-hop, friendships like Tory Lanez and Trina’s highlight the importance of support and collaboration.
