The Kid LAROI, The First Time Tour, June 16
Most 20-year-olds walking down Lansdowne Street couldn’t get into some of the bars and clubs along the strip, but The Kid LAROI doesn’t need to worry about any of that. The Australian rapper and singer won’t need ID as he holds court at Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway on June 16. The artist born Charlton Howard, who popped off after collabs with Juice WRLD and Justin Bieber, announced his The First Time Tour this week, a 31-date run of North America that enlists special guests glaive and Chase Shakur for the Boston show. The tour is named after his 2023 album The First Time, which features appearances from Jungkook, Central Cee, Future, BabyDrill, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Robert Glasper, and Vanyaland fave D4vd. “I am so beyond excited to see you guys & give you this new show,” he writes on Insta. “It’s been way too long.” Especially in teenage years. Tickets go on sale Friday (March 29) at 10 a.m. local time.
