The Kid LAROI Sets Jan. 9 Release for ‘Before I Forget,’ Drops Single ‘A Perfect World’

Laroi rebuilt the project from scratch over the past few months, calling it his most personal work.

Overview

  • The album will be released via Columbia Records, with the R&B‑tinged lead single “A Perfect World” available now.
  • He discarded a previously finished album, kept only one song, and remade the rest in roughly three to four months.
  • Laroi characterizes the new record as sadder, more emotional and nostalgic than the scrapped version.
  • A full track list has not been shared, though the set is expected to include the earlier single “A Cold Play.”
  • Credits feature his brother Auz as a key co-producer and co-writer alongside Omer Fedi, Vegyn and FNZ, with cover art shot by Thibaut Grevet in the South of France.
