LeBron James just gave a huge spotlight to somebody controversial in the rap world — and that’d be one Tory Lanez … who’s embroiled in a legal fight with Megan Thee Stallion.
LBJ took to IG Saturday to do what he often does when he stumbles across some new tunes … blasting it in the car and vibing out. In this case, he was playing TL’s new album, ‘Alone at the Prom,’ and gave it a big endorsement … showering Tory with compliments.
He captioned one of his Tory videos with, “MAN THIS BOY COLD AS HELL MAN!!! ALONE AT THE PROM IS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥” Later in the clip, LeBron films himself, seemingly singing along to Tory’s lyrics.

Normally, this would be NBD — like we said, LeBron does this all the time. The difference here … Tory is very polarizing right now, but that doesn’t seem to bother the King.
It’s interesting … LeBron is outspoken over just about everything these days, but he’s been mum on the drama between Tory and Meg — and now, he appears to have shown he’s cool with Tory (or at the very least, his music) despite the allegation against him … namely, that he shot MTS in the foot.

The L.A. District Attorney has charged Tory with one count of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and one count of carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm … also claiming he caused great bodily injury as it relates to Meg. He’s pled not guilty and maintained his innocence.
We’ve seen some people support Tory throughout all this — and the guy continues to roll out music and even perform live … regardless of the fact that this thing is going to trial.
