"Say It" is the debut single by Canadian rapper Tory Lanez. The song was released on July 15, 2015, by Mad Love Records and Interscope Records. It is from his debut studio album, I Told You (2016). A snippet of the song was released on July 24, 2015.[1] The song is another release under the Fargo Fridays series, and details Lanez’ wish for his lover to prove he loves him for more than his money and fame. It samples the song "If You Love Me" by Brownstone.[2]
The song's accompanying music video premiered on August 10, 2015, on Tory's Vevo account on YouTube & features former Vine star Wolf Tyla. Since its release, the video has received over 300 million views.[3]
"Say It" received positive reviews from music critics. Rick Florino of Artistdirect said, "...the new track sees him confidently embrace this inimitable and infectious style. It's airy drip transfixes just before building into an undeniable refrain. Somewhere between The Weeknd's nocturnal decadence and Future's space ruckus, Tory Lanez rules supreme. It's ultimately enigmatic and engaging at every turn. However, you really just need to listen to it for yourself."[4]
Sevyn Streeter released a remix of the song, with lyric changes.[5] Ed Sheeran released a cover on SoundCloud.[6] Tory revealed Kanye West's team reached out for the instrumental to record a remix of the song, but the remix has yet to be released.[7] Fifth Harmony's Normani Kordei also released a cover of the song.[8]
