January 10, 2026

GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum chart-topping global superstar The Kid LAROI releases his first full-length album in two years, BEFORE I FORGET, out now via Columbia Records.

 

Introduced by three singles, “A COLD PLAY,” “A PERFECT WORLD,” and “BACK WHEN YOU WERE MINE,” BEFORE I FORGET signals a powerful turning point for the 22-year-old artist, defined by vulnerability and emotional clarity. Steeped in introspection and showcasing LAROI’s distinctive songwriting and genre-bending prowess at new heights, each track gives an intimate insight into his world.

 

“BEFORE I FORGET is about the music. Nothing else. That’s what I want people to hear.”

 

The new album follows LAROI’s 2023 album THE FIRST TIME, whose deluxe edition arrived the following year with five additional tracks including “NIGHTS LIKE THIS PART 2,” the sequel to “NIGHTS LIKE THIS,” and fan-favorite “GIRLS.” LAROI continues to push creative boundaries with every new project, cementing him as one of the most compelling voices shaping music today.
