Two weeks after a highly-publicized Twitter tussle with Megan Thee Stallion and her boyfriend Pardison Fontaine (as we reported here), rapper Tory Lanez has taken to the studio to air out his grievances with the Hip Hop lovebirds.

As he awaits a court hearing stemming from reports he literally shot Megan in her feet, Lanez is now figuratively taking shots at her boyfriend via the new song ‘Cap.’

“He a bird he probably in the X4 / Plus the only party that we know is next door,” Tory raps in the new track in reference to how Pardi’s is similar to rapper-singer PARTYNEXTDOOR. “You know these ni**as talkin’ / Know these pu**y boys a joke. You got a Goyard on your birthday ’cause that ni**a broke,” he continues.

Ahead of the song’s arrival, Tory was sure to forewarn Cardi B and husband/Migos star Offset that none of the lines should be misconstrued as disses to them.
