Tory Lanez and Chris Brown’s support for one another is still going strong as Lanez revealed in a new song that Breezy helped him out financially, while incarcerated.

The Toronto star dropped his new album PETERSON today (March 7) — recorded entirely from prison — where he shouted out his frequent collaborator on the track “T.D.F x LA County Jail (feat. DSTNY).” On the song, Lanez expressed gratitude to Brown for stepping up when none of his other industry friends offered financial assistance.

“Where was you ni**as when I was in Cali fed up with no covers to bundle up? / Only real ni**a that helped me was Chris Brown, that really my brother, bruh,” he raps.

He expanded on this sentiment even further in the album’s closing track “Free Tory,” where he said, “I had no real, like, access to my funds. I was fed up and my lawyer wanted over, like, a quarter million to represent me for the appeal. So, you know, I start hollering at all my rap friends, my celebrity friends, and nobody was there.”

He added, “Ni**as treating me like I was dead and this ni**a Chris Brown — I’ll never forget it — this ni**a Chris Brown came out of nowhere. He just gave me the money. He said, ‘Look, bro, when you get outside, holla at me. Hope you come home.’ That a real ni**a, bro.”

Elsewhere on the 20-track album, the 32-year-old recalls the day he received his verdict in his shooting case with Megan Thee Stallion — to which he was found guilty on all felony counts. Lanez broke down his perspective of how his former lawyer, Shawn Holley, didn’t do him justice and was “in bed with the opposition.”

“Shawn Holley, that’s a name I would call special/ Only a special person could rep you and wanna dead you/ Go to your DNA expert and say don’t test you/ You fully excluded, but inconclusive is what she tells you,” he raps on “Verdict Day x Layer Fees Interlude.” He continues, “The DA’s first offer was nine years/ The second, it was six at eighty-five, about five years/ My lawyer keep on pressin’ me to take it, I’m like, ‘Nah’/ I ain’t do the crime, so I’ma sit it down right here.”

Lanez also admitted that he trusted her because she was a Black woman, but alleged that she was, “Workin’ for my accuser and workin’ for me/ All the information I give her is at ROC.” Lanez claimed that Holley was working with Roc Nation, Meg’s management, and “As soon as I realized, you saw it comin’/ You started to look back on your tracks and got ’em covered/ You knew that I found out what you did right before the trial/ You quit before I fired you and did it with a smile.”

He concluded the track with a voicemail from Holley explaining her lawyer fees to him where she gives the ultimatum of him paying $900,000 or staying in prison. “Mr. Peterson, I’m gonna be as frank with you as possible with you here, okay?” she can be heard saying. “My fee is not negotiable. At the end of the day, it’s either $900K or you can stay where you’re at. The ball’s in your court.”
