The Kid LAROI takes Billboard behind the scenes of his LA tour stop. The Australian star shares how he preps before taking the stage, his appreciation for his fans, a moment with Akon and more!
The Kid LAROI:
I’m so f—ing tired, I’m sorry, I feel like I’m giving you guys absolutely nothing. Hey baby! We’re at The Torch Coliseum, pretty crazy how you talk to people. Came a long way. This is just, I don’t know who this is for. I’m in that one, right? Yeah, it takes me a second to like warm up with meeting new people. I feel like me and [photographer] Adam [Kargenian] have been working on it for years. Well, we just got to a point like a year ago. Adam like is fully in the studio and like I can’t even notice him.
Adam Kargenian:
Him trusting me and, you know, vice versa, reading him and being able to get good shots, knowing when I can poke him to be a little outside of his comfort zone in certain situations. But yeah, it’s really, it’s relationship first.
The Kid LAROI:
This is the choir, I’ve never met them before.
Adam Kargenian:
An honor to get to know him. He’s truly like one of the most gracious kind people I know. And I know that’s not something fans get to see every day on a day-to-day level. But it’s really true with him. He just wants the best for everyone he loves and I feel like he’s loyal to the people he loves even to a fault.
The Kid LAROI:
Awesome, sounds incredible. What’s up, how are you guys doing?
Keep watching for more!
