The Kid LAROI: A full-length 'Kids Are Growing Up' documentary is coming

Do you want to learn even more about hitmaker The Kid LAROI? Turns out Prime Video is going all-out with the popular crooner with an upcoming Kids Are Growing Up documentary.

Centered on his come-up, the new production is slated to invade the Prime Video platform later this month and come packed with reveals. Tap in.

Amazon MGM Studios announced the feature-length documentary Kids Are Growing Up, about global superstar and Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter, The Kid LAROI, produced by OBB Pictures, the film and television division of OBB Media. Directed and produced by fellow Grammy Award nominee and OBB Media founder and CEO, Michael D. Ratner, the film chronicles LAROI’S life and musical journey from his upbringing to his global rise to fame. 

The film includes interviews with LAROI, as well as some of his esteemed mentors and peers in the music industry including Justin Bieber, Post Malone, and more, and will be available to stream on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide on February 29. The official trailer, including a sneak peek of LAROI’s new song featured in Kids Are Growing Up, is out NOW, February 21st. 

Kids Are Growing Up tells the intimate story of Charlton "The Kid LAROI" Howard who went from an unknown musician living in Australia to a teenage global superstar selling out his hometown arena on back-to-back nights in just three years. The film captures a unique moment in time, as LAROI enters adulthood, navigating the pressures of rapid fame, struggles with his mental health, first love, and the tragic death of his mentor—the late great Juice WRLD. Cameras began rolling before the massive success of “Stay” and continue as LAROI gears up for his first world tour and studio album. As LAROI is forced to deal with problems greater than his age, he searches for what happiness truly means, and how to handle outsized expectations from the public, those closest to him, and himself.

“Thank you to the incredible teams at OBB Pictures and Amazon MGM Studios for their support in sharing my story,” said Charlton "The Kid LAROI" Howard. “I can’t wait for audiences to see this behind-the-scenes portrayal of my journey, which perfectly encapsulates some of the most rewarding and challenging years of my life and career so far.” 

Kids Are Growing Up is produced by OBB Pictures’ Michael D. Ratner, Scott Ratner, Kfir Goldberg, and Arlen Konopaki.
