Tory Lanez has reportedly been stabbed in prison.
According to TMZ, the rapper was in the yard of California Correctional Institution at Tehachapi on Monday morning (May 12) when he was wounded by another inmate. The motive behind the attack is unclear, but he was rushed to a Bakersfield hospital.
The outlet reported that the injury isn’t life-threatening.
Lanez is currently a 10-year prison stint after being convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion back in 2020.
While being incarcerated, he revealed he was releasing a new album titled Peterson — his surname. It’s intended to be the sequel to 2020’s Daystar, which is his first name.
“Dear 2025 … This COMEBACK is PERSONAL, ALBUM NAME – PETERSON, SEQUEL OF – DAYSTAR,” Lanez confirmed in March. The album will fall into the “SLUTTY BASS” genre. The LP followed a series of mixtapes that was shut down in September 2024 after an alleged prison raid.
The announcement came after PND seemingly dissed him on Some Sexy Songs 4 U, when singing, “F**k what Tory Lanez say, you know the B, I’m running that/ I did everything he did, oh he’s just a running man […] You said I sound like Young Thug, you know you sound like me […] One day, you’ll be me.”
It was in response to Lanez stating, “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.”
PND later apologized, but the rapper felt the expression of regret wasn’t genuine.
