Mini bio
How it started.
Born Charlton Howard in Sydney, LAROI began recording on his mother’s phone. He grew up hearing her play Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Erykah Badu and the Fugees. His artist name reflects his Kamilaroi heritage.
Learning beside Juice WRLD.
After opening for Juice WRLD in Australia, he moved to Los Angeles and lived with the rapper and his team for three months. Watching Juice record became an apprenticeship. Their collaboration “GO” appeared on his 2020 mixtape F*CK LOVE.
Songs that travelled.
“WITHOUT YOU” found a huge audience on TikTok and gained a Miley Cyrus remix. In 2021, “STAY” with Justin Bieber reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. LAROI later released THE FIRST TIME in 2023, including “TOO MUCH” with Jung Kook and Central Cee.
Where he is now.
BEFORE I FORGET arrived in January 2026, followed by a deluxe edition and the A PERFECT WORLD TOUR announcement. Later singles “SLEEP” and “GET EVEN” brought songs from a previously shelved project to fans.
