The Kid Laroi said that he was not proud of his debut mixtape
In a 2023 interview with Billboard, The Kid Laroi revealed that he was not proud of his debut mixtape titled F*ck Love. He said, “I kind of don’t like that project, man. To be honest, I don’t really agree with a lot of the stuff on there anymore. I mean, I don’t agree with the message of the album in general. ‘F–k Love,’ I think it was an immature statement to make. I think it was like a heat of the moment statement.”
The Kid Laroi was born on August 17, 2003, to Nick Howard and Sloane Howard in Waterloo, New South Wales, Australia.
