Tory Lanez Announces Surprise Double Album While Still Behind Bars

Tory Lanez is set to release a 23-song double album this week, dividing the project into separate rap and R&B discs with no guest features.

Tory Lanez is keeping his music pipeline moving despite his incarceration and the embattled artist has announced a new double album with a special proposition.

The looming opus, titled MADE YOU THINK I WAS GONE…BUT, blends the two genres that define his career.

On Tuesday (July 14), Lanez revealed that the project is scheduled to arrive Friday (July 17). The release will be divided into two separate discs, with the first dedicated entirely to rap and the second focused on R&B.

“MADE YOU THINK I WAS GONE…BUT 7.17 DISC 1: RAP DISC 2: R&B PRE-SAVE NOW. LINK IN BIO,” Lanez wrote on social media while sharing the announcement.

The album will include 23 tracks in total. Disc One contains 11 songs while Disc Two features 12. According to the tracklist, the project will not include any guest appearances, making it a completely solo effort.

The artwork and tracklist also include a cryptic statement that appears to reflect Lanez’s current mindset.

“When the world turns your back on you, you turn your back on the world,” the message reads.

The announcement marks another chapter in Lanez’s unusually prolific prison output. Despite serving his sentence, he has continued releasing music recorded while incarcerated.

Earlier, Lanez launched his Prison Tapes series, giving listeners music created from behind bars. That run eventually came to a halt after correctional officers confiscated recording equipment from his cell.

He later followed with Peterson in 2025, another album assembled during his incarceration. The project demonstrated that Lanez remained determined to release new material despite the restrictions surrounding his imprisonment.
