Toronto-born rapper Tory Lanez has brought all of his influences together on his new release I Told You.

He’s on the road with a major tour that reaches Birmingham’s O2 Academy on Wednesday, with support from VeeCee, having been moved from the smaller O2 Institute.

Toronto has played a big part in Lanez’s music, providing diverse influences.

“It’s one of the most cultural places out, and because of that it’s given me different ethnicities and originalities with my sound.”
