The cover art for Starlito’s 2025 album REGRETFULLY features a lion casually lying on its side, directing a middle finger (claw? do lions have fingers?) at something off-camera. The title is signed as if it’s a letter from Starlito, though throughout the project he confirms that there’s nothing remorseful in his approach. He’s proud of who he is, and he owns his strengths, flaws, and everything in between. Clearly, the Nashville-born rapper doesn’t take shit from anyone. On “I Cry, Sometimes,” he treats the revelation less as a fearful admission than a badge of honor, recalling how revealing his drug addiction was a cry for help. He’s proud of the steps he’s taken: “I no longer care how I’m viewed, so I overshare in my music.”
