Tory Lanez is a Proud Student of 2000s R&B, And 'Chixtape 5' Proves His Credentials

ChixtapeI think it's just the evolution of where I'm at as far as R&B [is concerned], and Tory breaking down the barrier of something new, but also something classic. I think it's the evolution of where thein one, you know? You finally get every piece of production. You get every piece of extra vocals. You get everything. It's damn near overwhelming at a certain point because it's like, "Wow. Y'all did that.

I feel like if I was in their era of when they were singing and I have the voice that I have now, I think I'd be able to stand with them. I think it's moreso of a my-world-meets-your-world kind of situation. I've always wanted to say something along the lines of "I did this" or have something like, "I worked with this person that I've always wanted to work with." I always wanted to have those accolades and accomplishments.

Let's say you were just an artist from that time and I needed you on the project, I came in there like, "Yo. This project is this, that and a third. I got T-Pain on 'I'm Sprung' and Ashanti on 'Foolish,' and the list goes on."but I had those two names that showed if these guys did it, it's big enough for me to come back and do it. At this point I said let me try to make the list bigger. As I kept going, the list got bigger.

Nobody felt like that. I think that was the most pleasing part for me as an artist -- that my work and my craft was known enough and was respected by these people that I call "the greats," but respected enough for them to be like, "If it's him, I'll let it happen." There's a variety of artists that I know that would have tried to do this and it would have not gotten cleared.

I went back and forth doing the song four, five times, and I didn't know if I wanted to do the record. This was before I even thought Wayne or Lloyd would hop on it. Then, Play came with this beat and we added the ["You"] sample to the beat. It just sounded even crazier. So we said, let's try to make this work. Play went crazy on that beat, but even for me, production-wise, I didn't expect us to take it from here to here. That's what we did.Oh, man.
