The Kid LAROI has been spotted hanging out with DJ Sophie Grey after releasing his heartbroken banger BLEED.
Laroi, 20, whose real name is Charlton Howard, has just released his first full-length album appropriately titled The First Time.
The overarching theme is heartbreak, which tracks since he broke up with his long-time girlfriend, Katarina Deme, in August.
While his album consists of him trying to sift through the heartbreak and frequently mentions his struggle to move forward, it seems he may have been able to find someone new.
He has been seen heading into a gym with Grey before the pair pranced off to have lunch together in Studio City, Los Angeles.
Laroi and Grey looked like you’re typical Gen Zers, both wearing skin-tight clothing and adding a baggy item to the outfit to make themselves look a bit grunge.
The singer’s lead single, BLEED – which is spelt in all caps because if there’s one thing the Aussie star is a fan of, it is using capital letters – digs into the aftermath of a break-up where the he croons about being unable to move on from his ex.
“How did your heart mend so easy? Mine still bleeds. Hard to believe you don’t need me,” are just some of the lyrics.
While Laroi has kept the break-up private, he did admit on The Zach Sang Show that the split inspired the album.
He said the break-up inspired a “few” of the songs because when “something like that happens, you just have a whole bunch of inspiration.”
Laroi also claimed that to deal with the ending of the relationship, he threw himself into finishing off the album.
“All I wanted to do after my break-up was just work. It’s like, I was in the studio two days after my break-up. I kind of, didn’t have time to be sad,” he explained.
Despite Laroi sharing he didn’t have time to dwell on the relationship ending, things were very serious with his ex.
He even brought her out to Australia and the two were spotted hanging out in Laroi’s home suburb of Waterloo in Sydney, and it was a move that he didn’t take lightly.
“It was really cool to take my girl there because I always tell her stories about this whole life I had before her,” he told the Sydney Morning Herald.
“I’ve been dying to show her this part of me because this city is me, so now she understands more about who I am and where I’ve come from, which is really cool.”
