Tory Lanez doesn’t want to hear anything from PARTYNEXTDOOR — especially his apology. In case you missed it, speculation had been brewing about a potential tiff between PARTYNEXTDOOR and Tory Lanez, especially after a snippet from PND hinted at some tension.
What seemed to be a step toward peace and synergy has taken a drastic step back as Lanez delivered a message from jail to his fans: “Do I let him get away with hat ‘fake ass apology’?”
Lanez dropped an Instagram post featuring a diss track in which he threatens to slap PND while also using Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” bar: “PARTY at the party playing with his nose now.”
You can hear it below.
In a recent story on the Gram, PARTYNEXTDOOR addressed the issue directly, writing: “@torylanez I was told about what you said without hearing your video for myself,” the Mississauga artist shared. “You didn’t say anything that I wouldn’t say myself, now that I seen it I was wrong. City is stronger together.”
Get this: the post came just hours after PND had previewed a song that appeared to aim Tory Lanez. In the snippet, he rapped, “Fk what Tory Lanez say… you know the B, I’m running that/ I did everything he did, oh he’s just a running man.” He continued, “You said I sound like Young Thug, you know you sound like me […] One day, you’ll be me.” Additionally, in an Instagram live, PND made it clear that he wasn’t interested in friendly interactions, saying, “I’m not ‘y’all nias’ friend’ and stop saying my name.”
It remains unclear exactly what comments PARTYNEXTDOOR heard that triggered his response, especially given that Tory Lanez had recently spoken positively about PND’s work. In a leaked prison phone call, Lanez praised PARTYNEXTDOOR’s collaborative album with Drake, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, saying, “PARTYNEXTDOOR showed his best work of 2025, Drake showed his best work of 2025, The Weeknd showed his best work of 2025. Now it’s time for me to come out.”
What’s more, the tension also seemed surprising given the longstanding support between Tory Lanez and Drake. Over the years, the two have consistently backed each other, with Drake even calling for Lanez’s release from prison multiple times. In fact, Drake seemed to take a veiled jab at Megan Thee Stallion in his 2022 track “Circo Loco,” insinuating that she had lied about the shooting incident involving Lanez.
