Beautiful Loser is the debut album under the moniker KYLE (formerly known as K.i.D.), which was released on August 5, 2013. He explained the inspiration of the album’s name on HOT 97’s morning show, Ebro In The Morning. I put out my first project in 2013, it was called Beautiful Loser. Not inspired by the shoes. Inspired by Bob Seger. In this quote, KYLE is referring to Bob Seger’s title track (and most likely the album itself), Beautiful Loser.
