SYDNEY, AUS (CelebrityAccess) - The 2023 Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA) Music Awards were held at ICC Sydney, Gadigal land, on Thursday
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander performers have taken out a raft of gongs at this year’s APRA Music Awards, led by Kamilaroi rapper The Kid Laroi winning Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year.
The award continues a wave of both local and international success for The Kid Laroi – real name Charlton Howard – since the release of his debut mixtape, F ck Love.
The Kid Laroi grew up in Waterloo, Sydney and became the youngest ever Australian solo artist to take the ARIA’s number one spot at 17 years old, as well the second ever Aboriginal solo to reach the top of the chart, after the late, great Yolŋu performer Gurrumul.
