Hot Jam of the Day: Tory Lanez, “LA Confidential”

Tory Lanez
“LA Confidential”
Digital Single
I know I just wrote about Tory last week, and *ughhhhhhhhhh you only write about the same ten people*, but if he keeps putting out great songs, I’m going to write about them. “LA Confidential” is a new look for the Toronto native with hi-gloss production from heavyweights Cashmere Cat, Benny Blanco, and Pop Wansel (of Pop & Oak) and a songwriting assist from Mr. Wildheart himself, Miguel. The latter’s fingerprints are all over this one. From the taut guitars to the soaring chorus (“I get lohhhhhh-nley”), “LA Confidential” is so reminiscent of his mega-smash, “Coffee.” While no new ground is broken here musically or lyrically (spoiler: he’s got a side-chick in LA), it certainly has the potential to be a big radio single and could be the follow-up to “Say It” that the 23 year-old has been desperately searching for.
