The Kid LAROI's Surprise Maccas Gig: 'My Label Is Telling Me To Get On TikTok More'

"My record label has been telling me I need to get on TikTok more and I don't know what the f**k to do, so if it's not too much to ask, can we all sing a song together?"

More The Kid LAROI The Kid LAROI

The Kid Laroi is currently performing his first, massive headline tour across Australia, heading to arenas right across the country.

Before a huge pair of performances in his hometown of Sydney at Qudos Bank Arena, Laroi headed to a local McDonalds for an impromptu, accapella and completely acoustic performance of his latest single Thousand Miles with fans.

He encouraged fans to sing along, stating before the performance that, "My record label has been telling me I need to get on TikTok more and I don't know what the f**k to do, so if it's not too much to ask, can we all sing a song together?"

The performance comes just a week after the global rap titan launched the new Kid Laroi Meal, which is inspired by his go to Maccas order.

It includes a cheeseburger (controversially with no pickles),  medium chips, a frozen Coke and a six-piece chicken McNuggets with BBQ sauce.

It's not the first time that he's been outspoken against the music industry figures around him, recently throwing shade at his controversial ex-manager, Scooter Braun in a teaser for his single Thousand Miles. 

Sharing a teaser of new single Thousand Miles via TikTok, The Kid LAROI captioned the post with “show me ur last mistake. use this sound.” before images of Braun pop up.

Last September it was revealed that The Kid LAROI was switching management only three months after signing with Braun, moving to Rebel under the stewardship of owner Adam Leber, who also represents Lil Nas X, Labrinth and more.
