Rapper Drake has shared a petition asking California's governor to pardon fellow Canadian rapper Tory Lanez, who was attacked last week in prison.

"Come home soon," Drake wrote on his Instagram story with a link to the petition.

Lanez was stabbed 14 times by a fellow inmate in a California prison last week, an attack that caused both of his lungs to collapse. He was rushed to a hospital and is expected to recover.

Lanez, whose legal name is Daystar Peterson, is serving a 10-year prison sentence for shooting another musician, Megan Thee Stallion, in 2020.
