As the Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez shooting case drags on, it appears Daystar Peterson is growing tired of staying silent on the matter. According to TMZ, the Canadian rapper — who has a restraining order preventing him from contacting the Roc Nation artist — wants permission from Los Angeles County Court to speak on the case.
In new court documents, he reportedly claims it’s unfair Megan is allowed to tweet on the matter whenever she wants, while he must remain quiet. Lanez says there’s “evidence of gunshot residue implicating others” but because of the protective order, he’s prohibited from disclosing any of it. He’s also worried his silence will make it look like he agrees with her.
The paperwork follows Megan’s Twitter tirade last week in which she suggested Lanez’s team was behind an erroneous report stating the case had been dropped.
“AT THIS POINT IM GETTING ANNOYED! STOP BELIEVING EVERYTHING YOU READ ON THE MF INTERNET,” she tweeted shortly after the rumors started making the rounds. “Imagine how I feel waking every day seeing people LIE and turn my trauma into a joke? That whole team figures out ways to create doubt with my story every week and the media eats it up.”
She added, “I can’t wait until the MF FACTS come out! Bitch you shot me AND MY STORY NOT CHANGING AND BITCH YOU GOING TO JAIL.”
But has Lanez forgotten about DAYSTAR, the surprise album he released in September 2020? The 17-track project arrived via SoundCloud and was solely dedicated to telling his side of the story. From the moment the first note drops, Lanez is intent on clearing his name.
As he raps on album opener “Money Over Fallouts,” “Can’t cry now, I’m gonna laugh later/Girl you had the nerve to write that statement on that affidavit, knowing I don’t do it/But I’m coming at my truest, tryin’ to keep this shit 200 with ya, shorty/I can’t prove it but them people in yo’ ear/They the true ones that I feel that really got you thinking Tory Lanez would do you in for real.
“Don’t forget you was my bitch, I held it down and kept it real/I would never paint no fake picture of you just for some mills/And I thought that you were solid too, but look at how you doing me/Look at you doing me, people tryin’ to ruin me.”
He also questioned Megan’s injuries and suggested she was making it all up with, “How the fuck you get shot in your foot, don’t hit no bones or tendons?”
The remaining 16 tracks include titles such as “Things I Should Have Said,” “A Woman” and “Friends Become Strangers,” which are all related to the case in some form or fashion. Despite Lanez’s best efforts, the release didn’t seem to do him any favors.
DAYSTAR serves as the lowest opening week of his career, landing at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 chart with roughly 36,000 total album-equivalent units.
The man has been proclaiming his innocence this entire time and is now filing a motion to be able to speak, but instead of remaining an objective hiphop site that reports unbiased facts, you have culture vulture after culture vulture STILL trying to slander him instead of just giving him a chance to present his side of the story because the politics of today are black man bad, black woman good smh. Y’all gotta relax with this anti-black misandry, not a good look.
THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE ARTICLE. He already told his side on the album. Get off Tory’s dick.
So then why would the writer say “But apparently, Lanez has forgotten about DAYSTAR” when he obviously didn’t forget his own work? He’s clearly trying to speak on the details he didn’t go into before with the motion so why act like he did it already? The writer said that that as a shot you idiot, so shut the hell up.
Both sides have always been presented, including when Tory denied it on DAYSTAR! What is hard to understand!? He has already told his god damn side of the story. So why is he needing a court to drop a restraining order? And why the fuck would Megan lie? I guess believing black women – or WOMEN PERIOD – is a fantasy. Now go back to playing with your fucking G.I. Joes.
“G.I Joes”? Come on that was now you can do better than that can’t you? If you think both sides have been presented and you still think meg is telling the truth then the problem is with how you think. You do not believe women because they are women, you believe PROOF ONLY. Tory talked around the issue as much as he could without going into detail, which is what he’s trying to do with the motion. Yet even with him not being able to speak in detail, he still presented meg with questions she has yet to answer. How did you get shot twice in your foot and break no bones? Why would you get back in a car with a person who allegedly just shot you maliciously? Meg has no legal obligation to not answer these questions, and the fact that she hasn’t till this day is because she knows they will expose her lies. Clowns like you are so focused on identity politics you can’t even properly analyze a case. FOH
Bye Tory. You already said your piece. Entertainment or not. Don’t act like you’ve been fucking “silenced.” BS.
calm down Megan “daRat” Stallion, you said your piece, Weak A$$ P*ssy.
Megan is black too so your “point” makes no sense.
I said “black man bad, black woman good”, and this site has always praised her while slandering him. What do you not understand?
People want their cake and to eat it…. yes tory lane, released an album talking about it… but that is music, art, whatever type of entity you want to call it… regardless that is the realm of entertainment. He is talking about his legal right of freedom of speech so hes not only limited to the entertainment medium. Whether you think he did it or not, the entertainment world is not as important to his personal safety as his legal right to defend himself is… if you are on the side of truth, it should not matter that he gets to say his piece on a different medium. This article is basically condemning tory lanez for being tory lanez, there is nothing irregular about this action isolated or in relation to his daystar album.
I hope your a women because I’m in love wit your brain ?
Your dissertation sucks.
“Stop believing everything on the internet,” Megan Thee Stallion said on the internet…
He’s best effort in terms of albums yet you guys keep throwing shade… Numbers lie, Energy doesn’t
Lol, what?
