Ah, the nostalgia of the FARGO FRIDAYS era—do you remember where you were when Tory Lanez was dropping heat on the regular? If you were anything like me, you were probably blasting those tracks in your car, feeling like a million bucks, even if your bank account suggested otherwise! Back in the day, this Canadian sensation teamed up with our crew to unleash a treasure trove of music, wrapping things up with “I Sip” in 2017. Fast forward a few years, and here we are, revisiting gems like “Real Addresses.” You’d think it was just another forgotten tune until T.O. decided to sprinkle some fresh magic on it through his Lost Tapes series. And just when you thought he’d left us hanging, he rolls out a double shot — “For Real,” too! I mean, what drummer does that? Anyway, brace yourselves because we’re diving deep into this wave of excitement, ignoring the occasional drought of releases. Is it just me, or is it a great time to geek out over old favorites being revived? Let’s chat about it!
The FARGO FRIDAYS era for Tory Lanez was a special time. If you have been following the website closely, you may remember that it was a collaboration between us and the Canadian rapper and singer. It lasted for a few years, ultimately wrapping up in 2017 with “I Sip.” Overall, there are 36 songs in total and a lot of them are some of his fans’ favorites. One of them for sure is 2016’s “Real Addresses,” which made a massive splash on YouTube. It’s been floating around the internet since that time and on DSPs under a different user on Spotify.
But recently, Tory Lanez, through his weekly “Lost Tapes” series, has brought out “Real Addresses” officially. However, if you have been paying attention to this stretch of his career, you would know he gives his fans a twofer. The equally aggressive and hype “For Real” from 2016 is also a part of this drop. It’s a great time for his supporters, as they have been rejoicing online over this move to finally bring them out on DSPs. However, this weekend, he hasn’t dropped. Hopefully, this trend won’t continue, but we’d understand given Lanez’s circumstances. For now, revisit “Real Addresses” and “For Real” below.
