The Kid Laroi re-signs with former manager Scooter Braun, fans dub the move as ‘desperate’
The Kid Laroi, who parted ways with Scooter Braun, has reportedly come back to him a month after splitting with Adam Leber’s Rebel Management. The Australian crooner was first signed to Braun in June 2021 but left three months later apparently due to “significant problems” with the firm as Braun and his team felt Laroi was “making decisions without consulting him" and reportedly “there was not enough participation from him.”
The ‘Stay’ hitmaker has re-signed a new deal with Scooter Braun who already boasts an impressive roster with the likes of Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, J Balvin, Dan + Shay, and Tori Kelly among others. According to sources, the new deal comes after Laroi and his mother Sloane Howard recently re-approached Braun.
