Rapper Tory Lanez has insisted he was wrongfully convicted for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the feet during a row.
Lanez was jailed for 10 years this week after being found guilty of the attack in the Hollywood Hills.
He had denied ordering the Savage singer, real name Megan Pete, to “dance” before firing a handgun at her feet during a row.
In an Instagram post, he said he was innocent, adding, “I refuse to apologise for something I did not do.”
It follows a statement made by his lawyer, Jose Baez, outside the Los Angeles courthouse where Lanez was sentenced on Tuesday.
Mr. Baez told reporters his client was “incredibly remorseful, ashamed, and embarrassed”.
“As far as his actions are concerned, he has been nothing but apologetic.”
In his own statement to the court, Lanez, real name Daystar Peterson, said he accepted responsibility for what he “did wrong that night”, without saying exactly what he was referring to.
But the post on the Canadian-born rapper’s Instagram account said he only meant to take responsibility for “all the verbal and intimate moments I shared”.
“In no way, shape, or form was I apologising for the charges I’m being wrongly convicted of,” he wrote.
