Ruel - FAM

Since making his debut in 2017 at the age of 14, Australian pop prodigy Ruel has amassed over 3 billion global streams, headlined several sold-out world tours, collected multiple platinum and gold singles, and earned a string of “the youngest artist to ever…” achievements.

With platinum records and awards from the RIAA, ARIA and MTV, as well as taking home First Prize at the 2025 Vanda & Young Global Songwriting Competition, his resume is nothing short of astonishing.

Now 23, Ruel’s global career, audience, and list of industry accolades continue to grow at an unprecedented rate, propelling him into the position of one of the most influential artists of his generation.

I know I’m born to be a writer and musician – that’s what I love and am supposed to do.

Following the major success of four EPs, a mammoth 2023 debut album 4TH WALL, the October 2025 release of Part 1 of his double album Kicking My Feet and now the release of album Part 2 Kicking My Feet & Screaming, Ruel continues to turn the music industry on its head.

Both Kicking My Feet (P.1) and Kicking My Feet & Screaming (P.2) of the double sophomore album feature all-star casts of collaborators, including Julian Bunetta (Sabrina Carpenter, Teddy Swims), John Ryan (Harry Styles, Shawn Mendes), Kenny Beats (Dominic Fike, Vince Staples), M-Phazes (Eminem, Noah Cyrus), Dan Wilson (Taylor Swift, Adele), and Leroy Clampit (Justin Bieber, Finneas). These heavyweight creatives add to his already stand-out selection of past releases alongside contemporaries like Omar Apollo, Grent Perez, Denzel Curry, Lime Cordiale, and SG Lewis.

The dual album release marks a new era for Ruel, both personal and professional. chapter for Ruel’s creative maturity, with a daring self-awareness that feels deeply individual and universal all at once; it’s Ruel at his most zealous.

Part 1 is full of the celebration of Love; the hyper-charged feelings, the butterflies, when you’re walking on air. Then in contrast, part 2 bares a much starker reality of Love; how it can make you fall flat on your face, break your heart, leave you in pieces. Basically, a less openly discussed narration of what love can do to you.

Both on and off the stage, Ruel exudes a sense of intrigue and sophistication, and the international press tends to agree. Whether sitting front row at Paris Fashion Week or gracing the pages of Vogue, GQ, Nylon, The Face, NME, and Elle, he is a superstar with substance. Radiating humility while harboring a striking respect for haute couture, Ruel has been featured in editorial shoots for legacy houses including Louis Vuitton, Prada, Fendi, Gucci, Acne Studios, Burberry, Hugo Boss, and Coach.

Ultimately, Ruel’s meteoric rise to global superstardom is the result of continued evolution, encompassing a trifecta of sonic, visual, and conceptual creativity.

There is no better example of this creative harmony than when Ruel steps onto the stage. Armed with a mesmerizing presence akin to the likes of Mick Jagger and Bruno Mars, millions of adoring fans, and a new chapter of creative maturity underway, Ruel’s cult status is officially certified.

Its astonishing that someone so young, can write something this good… I give up
