Australia's boy wonder, The Kid LAROI, was dealing with a lot personally leading up to the release of his debut album. A couple of months ago, he shared what has been troubling him in a heartfelt message to his fans. "I’m sorry I’ve been a bit silent. Been going through a lot recently. I’m good but I’ve just needed space to focus on processing my feelings & work."

LAROI continued, "Here to let you know that a lot of videos have been shot these past couple weeks, I shot the album cover & I’m working with the label to get you a date. I also added more songs to the record. It’s done though. I love you. Thanks for staying with me. 🤍" For a teenager dealing with this massive wave of fame, a lot can come with that, especially negatively. Relationships, mental health, and plenty of other important things are put on the back burner because of your new responsibilities.

These are some of the topics that the now 20-year-old breaks down on his first official album. "SORRY" is the ultimate tone-setter and the lyrics certainly hit heavy. LAROI also mentioned that he was evolving as an artist. That rings true with the cuts like "WHAT'S THE MOVE?" with Future and BabyDrill.
