MTV Reportedly Offered Tory Lanez a Show Following Success of ‘Quarantine Radio’
Tory Lanez has been dubbed an essential worker after hosting one of the most lit daily Instagram live sessions.
It consisted of outlandish twerk contests and star-studded guest appearances from the likes of Drake, Justin Bieber, Young Thug. His five-minute interview with Drizzy broke a record for garnering more than 300,000 viewers.
Quarantine Radio is addicting and it led many to think if Tory has a bright future on radio. “MTV offered me something like a little 30-minute segment, but I don’t know what I want to do,” he reveals to Billboard. “But I want it to be something that the fans decide. If I end up coming up with an idea for it, hopefully, it’ll be on MTV.”
The Toronto emcee is fresh off the release of New Toronto 3 and he’s officially a free agent. He’s pretty optimistic about it because this latest project is his most commercially successful rap effort. “It’s a mixtape. I don’t even know how!” he said of the success of the EP. “I didn’t promote it. I put out the cover to it like a week before it came out. I thought it was gonna sell like 10,000.”
Tory Lanez also revealed that he received life-changing offers from record labels but he isn’t in a rush because he already owns his masters and publishing. “To be 100 percent, there’s so many labels offering me so much money — like millions of dollars,” says Lanez. “I’ve gotten offers that are life-changing offers, but I don’t care. I already own my masters and publishing and everything. So I don’t see any reason to give that to somebody else.”
