Kid Laroi is causing a stir with a new TikTok post that appears to be pointing an accusing finger at his former manager Scooter Braun by calling it a “mistake.”
The 18-year-old pop star uploaded a 10-second TikTok today with an excerpt from her upcoming single “Thousand Miles” (released April 22) that includes the lyrics: “Here’s another mistake I know I’m going to make.” On Laroi’s TikTok, the video’s caption reads, “Show me your latest mistake. Use that voice,” before moving on to a montage of a photo of Scooter Braun. It has garnered over 50,000 likes in the two hours since it was posted.

Laroi parted ways with Braun’s SB Ventures last year after just three months on the roster. The Australian singer then signed with Adam Lieber of Rebel Management, who continues to represent Laroi alongside clients like Lil Nas X and Labrinth.
In the cover story, Billboard mentioned The breakup was amicable, with Brown adding: “Larroy is a brilliant artist, and I wish him and his family all the best. I am proud of the historical success we have had together in our short time: I have always supported him, and he knows it.
In fact, after contacting sources on both sides, it appears that Brown was on the loose and blessed Laroy. The “mistake” also appears to be open to interpretation, as part of a spurious feud that may continue through additional videos from both sides.
What did Brown and Laroy break up in the first place? Billboard quoted a source close to the situation as saying, “After Brown made ‘a promise’ that he would be directly involved with Laroy…there wasn’t enough involvement from him, and Laroy had ‘big issues’ with other SB members.” . Project Team, who felt that he was “making decisions without consulting him.”
Laroi is clearly responsible for her actions now, as this TikTok hack proves. Bullying on social media has also been a part of his recent past; for example, the song «Stay» debuted thanks to Instagram publication with Bang Si-Hyuk of HYBE.
Amid the changing dynamics of the music business, Brown himself has become a polarizing figure. In an interview with different Last June, Brown responded to the criticism he received during his public feud with Taylor Swift, saying, “I think when you’re successful, you’re misunderstood. Success is chess, and sometimes on this chessboard, people don’t see what you’re doing until you’ve moved four or five times. There will always be misconceptions because people want to see things the way they want to see them. But it would be really nice if we could give each other a little grace. «
