The final boss has arrived. This will (hopefully) be my last video on MGK for awhile ✌️ Drop a like & let me know if you agree with these 10 (holy shit biggest episode yet) reasons why.
I understand how annoying he is, specially now. But he’s been a hustler, and deserves at least a clap on his shoulder. He used to kill stages with the same outfit for a whole tour.. black or white tank top, ripped Black jeans and chucks. I promise you if you look up a concert of his No Class Tour with the limpin bizkit you would appreciate what he does. Also his Black Flap/ Fuck It tapes from 2013. That’s almost 10 years from his most punk era (trust me that was it for him)😅
Aerials on Howard Stern was so painful, I don't consider myself a great singer but I still go for those higher notes while mgk can't be bothered to even try lmao
There's a reason why you don't see a lot of covers of Ariel's. To do the song justice, even in your own voice, you have to be able to hit certain vocal range that he just can't reach. I could see the Cranberries doing an awesome cover of Ariel's that sounded like them but also did Justice to the song. Singer like Machine Gun Kelly can't do justice to any song unless he's covering Blink-182 or something like that
@@Tully_23_32 I'm well aware of the fact that she passed away and it was a sad day for me because I've been a die-hard cranberries fan. My comment was more about the fact that she had the kind of voice that could do justice to a song like Ariel's while still keeping it her own style. Mgk doesn't. But thank God there's people out there like you who correct people's comments. Next time I'll reference an artist who's living😉
I actually think MGK would be onto something if he could just actually lean into the “poser / sellout” aesthetic. Because nothing is more actually punk than doing something that always gets criticized by the scene and not giving a fuck. But MGK on his songs always complains about it, so he doesn’t really live the “not giving a fuck” attitude that would actually work decently
I think he’s trying. That’s why he renamed his album “Mainstream Sellout”. That’s what that song on the album was for. That’s why he ended that song with a “FUCK THAT, DUDE!” I don’t think he knows how though. I think if he really wants to drive that point home, he should fill up an entire album with “emo girls” and then sit back and admire the backlash.
He’s just complaining about the fact that people don’t vibe with his incendiary remarks. There’s no accountability and it’s a terrible message to represent rock.
@@adreamabouthome he’s transitioning from a genre where disrespec and diss was the norm. If y’all og punk rockers don’t wanna claim that energy then that’s that.Just think of rock today as a different one from the one in your times. In that way, he won’t be representing what you stand for at all.
@@_predebut_6733 this is why MGK is problematic; because he’s a rock musician with rap music ideologies. He’s stuck in this halfway point in between the rap scene and rock scene, so he gets haters on both sides. On the other hand, that also makes him an incredibly interesting person. So interesting in fact, that people who don’t like him will take the time to make a 13-minute video about him.
Ironically the name "Machine Gun Kelly" really fits him because if you read about the real Machine Gun Kelly when that dude was imprisoned it was immediately shown that he was super soft to the point where people called him "Pop-Gun Kelly". So the name fits him very well. I just never really liked him because as much as I am not an Eminem fan you just don't creep on somebody's daughter, especially so publically like that. That's just gross.
Something she doesn’t see in you , stop hating on a man for pulling women , you wouldn’t want others looking at yours the same and asking those questions
The battle with Eminem made MGK more famous it seems like. I have a theory he may be doing this feuding and stirring up controversy because he knows it will keep him relevant.
She was 16. "Young teenage girl" is 13, 14. He was 22. 16 year olds have been supermodels in the past, and people are supposed to say that the supermodels aren't hot? When I was growing up, we had some truly whack as shit like Brooke Shields naked in Pretty Baby at TWELVE. Also, for funsies, the age of consent in Michigan is 16, based on a quick google search. Society didn't become as unaccepting of relationships like that until the last 15, 20 years. And the laws are still sitting out there, the same as they've been for years. MGK could have slept with Eminem's daughter and not even gotten in trouble legally.
@@eboethrasher 16 is young. A teenager is a child. An older child sure but a child nonetheless. Just because it's legal doesn't mean it's ok. By that logic I can say it's okay to sleep with a 14 year old girl since it's legal in some countries. Young girls have had and still have a history of being sexualized due to a societal fixation on youth. 13 or 16 it's still fucked up
@@eboethrasher usually i'm pretty lenient with this compared to other people. i'm a guy who's dated a 22 year old at 18 (almost 19), but i will say 22 and 16 is way too far. there's a lot of development that goes on from both 16-18 and 19-22. it's weird as hell that he'd go out of his way to hit up a 16 year old
@@scubasteve6175 I think the person is referring to Eminem's daughter who I'm pretty sure was 15. Also this person's argument that 16 is the consent age in Michigan is a bad argument. Legality doesn't equal morality (which is something I'm pretty sure most people know)
Just being real for a second, I hope the person behind MGK (Colson Baker) actually can get the help he desperately needs. We don't need another headline that another artist is dead. It seems in his albums and interviews you can hear and see the pain but he may feel he's too far gone to want to change so he acts the way he does anyway? I also agree he doesn't know how to handle situations either. I also feel he doesn't really know who he is but I feel like that plays into a bigger conversation about mental health. Also if I could give the man a hug and say it'll be alright and he can do this for his loved ones, I absolutely would. I have had friends commit suicide and went into self loathing and it's not fun at all. I understand the character MGK Is polarizing and people will clown him all they want but I just want the man to be alright and hopefully somewhere down the road he'll admit to his mistakes and shortcomings and will be the better person for it.
His biggest drive for living is really is his daughter but i know he goes to therapy tries to be healthier in general but there’s a lot to uncover and a lot to work on.
First of all sorry for your loss. As for MGK, I agree that this guy is on a steady path that leads nowhere good. Can't stand him, but he's a father and I wish no daughter to grow up with a disfunctional father or no father at all
Idk man I've been suicidal for years because of personality/mood disorders stemming from past trauma and no amount of hugging or someone telling me it'll be okay has ever helped even the slightest bit. It really sucks to have a friend kill themselves and I've experienced that too, but sometimes there is nothing you can do and you can't blame yourself for it. But the world definitely needs more people like you who TRY to help when they see others in pain. It may not make a difference for people like me, but for others it might.
@The Fitness Channel Idk, I think it's pretty normal to hate some people without actually knowing them. Knowing what they do and what they have done is sometimes enough reason to hate someone
you’re not alone. i listened to Tickets to My Downfall when it dropped, Rap Devil and his new singles and they range from “okay” to downright awful.. aside from that i just can’t stand his mentality, the fact that he butchers classic songs and the biggest one… his pedophile and racist comments.. i just can’t stand this clown. so much better artists deserve the attention he keeps getting
I haven't watched yet, but the main reason I hate MGK is his creepiness towards young girls. I know it's happened with tons of artists in this genre (and it doesn't excuse it in the slightest!) some I still listen to, but that combined with his boring writing and generic songs just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Not to mention him criticizing others for "not being punk enough" without understanding what punk truly is. Spoiler alert, It's not about being an asshole.
I actually listened to him back in the day because I thought he was promising. However, I couldn’t just stand the persona he’s trying to affect in public. I can forgive that because I know he’s in the show business. What I can’t forgive is the poor lyricism in his songs. I like how you pointed out that he refused to grow. Regardless of which genre he pursues, I think his music is in a plateau. These insights are great as usual. Keep it going bro - not with the hate (lol) but with the great content! 😁
Does anyone feel like some of the pop punkers are praising MGK (despite all his negative qualities as a person and his sub-par music) only because he’s put the genre in the mainstream after a decade of it being underground?
@@issahumps I think it’s pop punk fans that have been so desperate for that kind of music to hit the charts again that they’ll settle for and praise anybody who does it.
@@theseth455 Yep. Our standards have gone so low that anything with a guitar in it means that it’s good and that “rOcK mUsIc Is BaCk In ThE mAiNsTrEaM!! “tHeSe ArE eXcItInG tImEs!!” 🙄 Seriously, this makes me want to distance myself from the genre, sometimes…
@@quentinbringthenumetalchil5125 oh same here. When bands like Nirvana and Green Day broke into the mainstream that signaled the end of the super-cheesy 80s hard rock stuff, and it seemed like rock had an overall great mainstream run from then all the way through the late 2000s.
I actually like a couple of his tracks. Others are completely miss for me. I had the chance to participate in a zoom listening session for his new album and he seemed pretty chill and nice. I feel like he is that type of person who only certain people get along with, but that outright/ legit hate man.. I don't get it.
Funny little update, in one of Frank Iero's recent interviews he mentions how he doesn't support 'tourists' masquerading as 'im a rock guy now' and it was like subtle shade at MGK. Few months later, MGK references this in his AMA award speech lol...he tries to come off as not caring about it, but you could sorta tell he's seething months later from a vague comment. Perhaps he just meant generally, but the timing makes me think otherwise. but whatever the case i just find it a bit funny 😭
I remember first hearing about MGK back when he was a white rapper who was fairly well-regarded. A lot of my friends around 2017-18 would tell me about how they listened to Machine Gun Kelly. Fast forward to today and he's now one of the most hated musicians. For me personally, it's not really his persona and behavior that annoys me (I mean, how many rockstars have we seen that act just like him), it's more the fact that he hasn't got much to show for it. He's a terrible singer and his musical abilities are limited at best, and he makes up for it by having more experienced artists like Travis Barker and a bunch of others as frequent appearances on his tracks. I'm glad the pop punk genre is back, but did MGK really have to be the one to revive it? Another thing is that he has his own personal problems that need to be sorted out. Recently, it seems like his personal life often gets more attention than his music. He kind of reminds me of Kanye West in that respect. I think he needs to take a good look at himself and learn how to be more mature. Right now, he seems to still be a teenager stuck in his "emo" phase, singing about bad relationships and the like. If he grows up, so will my respect for him.
@Elite Sports Talk I always thought he sounded much better as a rapper than as a pop punk singer. Maybe I'm old school, but pop punk is a genre that I've always associated with higher pitched vocals, and with his voice being so deep, the way he sings just sounds wrong to me.
To be fair Cory Taylor has admitted to being a curmudgeon. I don't think MGK just randomly started verbally assaulting people until he was attacked first. Slipknot and their fans have a history of being extremely obnoxious
As a fan of Kelly's music, the only thing that's irritating about him is his behavior and not holding himself accountable. He actually has some decent music if you check out some of his previous work in his discography with projects such as Black Flag and General Admission which in my opinion are his best pieces of music back when he was rapping. Now look at him, he's trying too hard to fit into this persona which is horrendous. This is not the Chuck Taylor wearing, laid back, fast rapping Machine Gun Kelly I discovered years ago. He's got alot of growing up to do
I think it’s interesting that this new-look pop punk MGK blows up just a couple of years after the untimely death of Lil Peep, an artist who had a similar aesthetic but was much more promising and authentic imo
I would have to agree with all of the reasons people hate him in this video especially the god complex gone wrong. That was the reason that I stopped being a machine gun Kelly fan. That and him acting like a child whenever someone says anything about him that isn’t how awesome he is. He needs to realize that not everyone is going to like him and be okay with that.
-He openly tweets about thinking 12-14 year olds are hot -Said on camera he would sleep with an under aged Kylie Jenner when he was 23 and she was 17(he also told someone "respect the Youth" defending himself when he was like 30) -Made a Diss track to Em for attention (Em knew he was trying to write his coattails he said so in an interview) -Trash talked Ems daughter when he didn't get any attention from his first disk track on him -Later Kelly's numbers are down so he keeps rehashing in the media about his "feud" with Em anytime he needed attention -Trash talked Slipknot then when he got backlash for it claimed he "fired" Corey Taylor although Corey kept and posted the OG emails where Kelly was a sellout and wanted Corey to sing a song that was already written to completion and just wanted Corey on the track for the numbers, so Corey said NO -Later went onto do what he did to Em to Slipknot and brings it up when it was over just to stay more in the light -He also has been booed off stage but acts like he is here to "save" music All that too...
I admittedly like some of his songs a lot (especially Lonely) but absolutely hate others (especially Emo Girl). I think saying I hate him as a person would be too extreme- but I do find a lot of qualities he has pretty cringey. And his history of saying gross things about underage girls is obviously beyond cringey and is downright disturbing.
MGK has never released a song as bad as ‘Ice Ice Baby’! Yes, ‘Bad Things’ and ‘emo girl’ are both AWFUL songs, but…come on 😑 we’re talking about freaking Vanilla Ice here.
Yeah I got to say you hit ten Nails on Machine Gun Kelly's head. As a 44 year-old man who had his musical renaissance during the 90s with bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam and Soundgarden and Alice in Chains and whatnot it is so hard for me to get on board with Machine Gun Kelly. I haven't even hardly heard any of his songs but I honestly feel like I don't need to. One of the best experiences of my life was a Slipknot concert and Eminem is by far one of my favorite artists. Just the fact that this guy who I haven't heard a song by can talk so much smack about two other artists that I've heard every song by is amazing. I have so many Eminem and Slipknot songs memorized. The only song by Machine Gun Kelly I really know is Rap Devil and that's only because he's singing about Eminem LOL
His music isn’t that bad does it need work yes but it’s a subjective opinion do I believe he’s right calling out slip knot no or talking about Eminem’s daughter hell no but I’m not gonna dismiss the talent he has he will be remembered as a good musician when my generation gets older people juts need to target someone to hate and mgk is an easy target because of his Crazy ego listen to what’s popping remix for rap and listen to lonely for a good pop punk song
Haven't listened to MGK but the snippet of "Papercuts" that you played in your 2021 worst songs video was one of the funniest things I heard in a while. That's all I need to hear from him 😅
@@johnringolll4517 just because he has #1 albums doesn't mean he's good. if you're referencing the billboard 200, that #1 doesn't mean quality, it means enough people listened to or bought the album to beat out 199 other albums. and yeah no his stuff is pretty bad
Shitting on MGK. My favorite past time. Everything about him and his music is vomit inducing. He’s almost borderline turning into something similar to Ronnie Radke where his ego is off the charts making him unlikeable no matter what
The difference between him and Ronnie, though, is that Ronnie is actually very talented. That still doesn't excuse what both have done over the years, though...
While personally I’m not a fan of him, I will say that I respect his work ethic to an extent. Maybe he’s not the most talented, but I do honestly think he’s trying his hardest. And at times when he’s not losing himself in his self righteous rock savior persona, or being absolutely cringe at times, he can be occasionally charming. I think the main reason he got big is because he is a hot white dude who started in the rap scene, where there’s still a lot of white people who will only listen to other white people. He’s got a couple of bangers like Forget Me Too, but for the most part his music just isn’t for me. At this point his relationship with his hot fiancé is more notable than his music, which says a lot. The relationship can be more cringe than his songs at times, but it’s still infinitely more funny; Megan Fox’s Instagram captions get me lmao.
He said some really disrespectful things about girls of a specific ethnicity, and applies to his daughter’s mother.I can’t wait until he has to explain it all to his daughter.
I like how MGK got the most reasons out of all the artists in this series lol. I feel like you were trying to narrow them down to less but just couldn't 😂
9:49 he's trying to have the immaturity that blink-182 had, but they did it in a cool and relatable way that felt very much like a "screw authority" mentality, while mgk just is lame
All these reasons are valid but him quite literally admitting to sexualizing children as young as 13 should be the final nail in his coffin. This man displays signs of a predator yet no one seems to find that as disturbing as they should. Sexualizaiton of young girls is way too normalised.
weezer: makes a masterpiece of an album and is so ashamed of it it takes about a decade for them to like it mgk: creates a dogshit record and is so proud of it you force yourself onto a group of people that don’t like you
lmao i listened him bc he's yungblud's friend and had co-op songs with him. but i don't like his style and behavior.... goddess Megan broke up with him i hope she's happy and mentally healthy
I actually really really like his latest two albums. This is my style of pop-punk. Golden albums in my book. So I don't really care what others think about him.
for me, im a massive fan of the guy. but I ain't saying he's perfect. what he said about teenage girls is disturbing and he is quite immature. but as an artist I think he's great. Hotel Diablo i think is incredible, I love Tickets to my Downfall and I really enjoy Mainstream Sellout. admittedly some of the covers and emo girl aren't the best. but with the comments that he made, it was over a decade ago. for me, thats enough time to forgive. and apart from a few covers and emo girl, the guy makes great art. but everyone is entitled to their own opinion
I mean MGK is the equivalent of when your sister/brother needs new clothes, but then they give you their hand me down oversized Oakland Raiders sweatshirt.... and also he reminds me of those kids you went to school that try to get your goat....
I used to think MGK was just a laughingstock because of Rap Devil in 2018, which only ages worse with time. Now he's a more genuine artist with an aesthetic that feels more like his own, and... it's very hit or miss for me. Most of it isn't actually my thing and songs like Emo Girl make me feel nauseous for some reason.
I'm not one who has an issue of musicians changing genres depending on how they actually do it. My issue with MGK is how plastic he became especially since his current pop punk phase. It's like he's trying his damnest to mimic Kurt Cobain's presence with a dab of Lil Peep's aesthetic. Not only that, but his pop punk music itself is just Blink-182 but with Tom Delonge inhaling argon instead. He's a walking stereotype (including being a creep towards underage girls). Him supposedly bringing pop punk (or punk in general) back on the map is all for the wrong reasons. That, and his beefs with both Eminem and Corey Taylor are downright pitiful, especially the case with the latter. Sure, Corey's vague comment reeked boomer energy, but dude, you had that comment he made live in your head rent free for about seven months, and then tried to lie about a collaboration that ended up not happening anyway. "Don't fuck with the youth"... dude, you're over 30. Shut up. lol
Ngl, it's hard for me to respect a man who cosplays as anthropomorphized Pepto-Bismol and still somehow manages to play guitar like a jagged bowel movement. 🤷♀
I hate the term "pop punk". Punk isn't meant to be mainstream or pop. Punk should be an understanding that focuses on making a change against the mainstream for social betterment. It wasn't made to be cool. It was made to be heard.
That’s pretty much why punk rock purists dislike pop punk and (I’m pretty sure) despise this pop punk revival stuff on a different level. As a fan of the more classic pop punk as well as original punk from the 70s and 80s, I still respect their opinions.
@@johnriggio1405 it’s a genre of music that combines punk rock with elements of pop music, although since the late 2000s there’s been a handful of “pop punk” that leans way more on the pop side, especially the new commercialized pop punk.
I'm still a fan, saying that lightly, because and I know everyone is gonna try to gotcha me, have fun asshats, but he did bring rock back into focus or at least alternative music. Anyone who denies that is just angry which is understandable, but you have to give him some credit
But why isn’t that level of credit given to Travis barker who arguably is the reason mgk got into genre that he did. Mgk did not write that music, it was all produced by Travis barker and he’s actually done that for dozens of artists who are imo a lot better picks for the position mgk finds himself in.
@@adreamabouthome Travis is not a singer or a put on a show person. You need someone to create personas and make headlines to stay relevant in the mainstream. The ofher artists are also riding on what MGK’s started and hopefully they’ll prove their porte tial too but but travis producing for then or beinging them into the scene isn’t a platform solid enough. The genre as awhile needs to regain stability for the others to stand on it and that’s what MGK’s doing.
He didn't bring anything back lmao he has no talent. Can't write songs, can't write lyrics, can't sing, can't play guitar... he's trash. Edit: Actually, I really enjoyed his performance in The Dirt, so he has talent: acting. He's good at acting and pretending to be a musician. Not at actually being one.
@@_predebut_6733 I think you can argue that in terms of headline making, channelling the same kind of Rap Devil vibe into another genre is MGK’s doing but the look, the music (both lyrical and instrumental,) and all the rest probably is influenced and advised by Travis Barker and other people around MGK. It would be pretty short sighted to think that he’s come to this whole style/genre change all on his own. I would lay a lot more credit at Travis Barker’s door than I ever would MGK. It would be a beautiful romance if these things sprung up organically but to mainstream this genre again and have MGK be the face of it is coming more from the suits upstairs in record companies and your Travis Barkers of the world than it is MGK waking up one day and deciding to be gods gift to pop punk.
He’s equivalent to that horrible Gayle song: he follows us everywhere we go. We could get far off somewhere else, and he’ll be right there. He’s hyped to no end, and I just can’t get into the appeal.
I don’t understand the mass appeal of his music myself. I’ve given both albums a chance and taken the time to get to know him as an artist, but he’s not it. The pop punk community is divided as hell on this guy and people there are only praising him for “giving the genre mainstream attention” while acknowledging his bad behavior as a person (and they’ve cancelled bands like Brand New, Moose Blood, and even All Time Low at the same time which is super hypocritical).
@@theseth455 He has money. He has a huge fan following. When you’re a big musical celebrity, you’re pretty much immune to anything that has to do with anything that came from your past. Also, for me, personally, I don’t care about his behavior. Today’s celebrities are unlikeable d****, anyways.
I don’t, necessarily, care for his presence, honestly. It’s just that he’s overhyped to no end. Like I said, we can go off somewhere on the Internet, and there his name will lie.
Never got the hype! The only good thing he did was played Tommy Lee in the dirt. He sucked as a rapper. And he sucks now! He seems like a tool to!! Then again, maybe he isn't . Still don't like him.
I personally am still a fan of Machine Gun Kelly, however, I do see exactly what you mean in this video. Over the past recent years (especially since Megan Fox) his public persona has gotten cringe which is why I watch less of his interviews compared to the past. I wish he was humble like in the beginning of his career
Also I find it ironic that MGK thinks Minors are hot And Also Mention some Racial comments About someone's black head or something? Not a good Take on his end for being a Racist and also since when over cooked dudes like him have the Authority on the way rock musicans "should look?" Like what? Lmao
I agree with all the criticisms when it comes to mgk's past and he may be someone who is outwardly trying too hard to fit in to the "pop punk" genre. Although as a long time pop punk enjoyer, I do think that tickets to my downfall and like a couple of songs off of mainstream sellout are enjoyable! I always see a ton of hate on this dude and while I do think that is it valid I think that the reaction to his pop punk stuff is more subjective as I do know a lot of people do vibe to his stuff. I'm also a long time subscriber of Jon and I respect all his reviews on music even if I do not agree. Thank you for the hard work u put into your vids broo!
For the longest time, I was really not a fan of MGK because of his persona (which is still the case), but there was one thing that really sealed it for me; I had a friend who worked at an MGK meet and greet in 2019 in Philly, and my friend basically told me that MGK acted like a total tool, called them a "bitch," and his team had to basically apologize for him because he obviously wasn't going to. That sealed it for me because I'm a "when you hurt the people I care about, you hurt me" type, so it fully sealed in my mind that MGK was a douche. Nothing he's done has changed my mind since.
Here's my take on this dude: he was better at doing Midwestern whiteboy rap than he is now at pop-punk. He cannot sing to save his freakin' life. End of take! *mic drop*😤
It’s so weird to me that I still agree with all the points you made, but I still like his rock-leaning music. Personally I already like his stuff but, I think he could actually be a punk rock artist that everyone would like if he stops going down the pop route.
Honestly, if he stops going down the pop and trap leaning route and matures his style some more, he would be well suited for punk. He has the voice and the demeanor.
Got too focused on the comments didn't hear a thing about this video and don't want to anymore I'm a huge mgk fan Love his songs Don't really care about all the controversy Just not supporting all this hate And hope those who don't like him will stop ruining all his comments sections Take care y'all 🖤
He’s a tool. I still don’t get why that guy even has a record contract. Back in the day before the internet and social media and of course auto tune, record companies would have laughed him out of there offices. The guy is mediocre at best and that’s being kind.
I don't understand all the hate...The fact that he actually plays his guitar on stage is awesome, all you keyboard warriors that are "pro guitarists" criticizing him would never have the balls to play on stage in front of a bunch of people. MGK continuing to do what he wants despite people thinking he lame or a poser or whatever, is in itself punk rock.
El punk rock ni siquiera debería tener la palabra punk Todos esos artistillas de papel solo hablan de mierda poser y jamás han sufrido realmente como para ser punk ni tienen el talento real para destacar Machine gun Kelly es un pendejo. No destacó en el rap y se le ocurrió pelear contra un grande (eminem) No destacó en el rock (muchísimo menos destacará en el metal) y se le ocurrió pelear contra otro grande (Corey Taylor)
I try to never say I hate an artist, as I generally believe most popular artists have at least a couple songs that are good or where they showed their potential. However, MGK has absolutely NOTHING I enjoy. I saw someone reacting to his album on youtube and in the title he said it was album of the year and I wanted to throw up🤮
Like I'm not against People who love MGK's music I feel is if his song Forget me too with Halsey was Solid so ill give him that that and his new album felt disjointed Him as a person overall is Just a Dog water mess
I am 100% convinced that mgk is gonna be one of those artist that where hated on in their time but then over the years starts growing an incredibly large cult fan base then in hindsight the whole narrative switches and people actually start to love him in general.
Honestly his music is really good my favorite song is her song but he's also kindof a dick its like Kanye nobody really likes who he is now byt his music is good
He’s trying to bring back that pop punk crap from 20 years ago that sucked ass then and still does now. And for the record, System of a Down should sue him for butchering their classic. smh….
Eminem lost that battle the only people who say em won is Eminem fans. real hip hop heads said mgk won. people keep saying he switch genre when two of his last album had that sound on it and you must have not seen his live show 2013 he covered rage against the machine swing life away.
I'm constantly on the fence about MGK. When it comes to his push into Punk rock, while his take isn't my thing, it doesn't really offend me. His "feud" with Corey Taylor was stupid. Corey's "feud" with MGK was stupid (I say that as a Slipknot and Stone Sour fan). MGK's overall style and presence can be a bit obnoxious, enough to drag me into the hate train... But then I remember there are much worse musicians out there, both in terms of craft and personality. I'll reserve my hate for peeps like Manson (I used to be a fan of his), Kid Rock, Travis Scott, and Chris Brown.
@@The_Horse-leafs_Cabbage yeah he says the most stupid things and thats why I like him because he has guts to do stuff like this and make these type of jokes the same way em made those type of jokes back then
@@UnSlayedGAMER My wording is harsh, but I don't consistently or actively hate MGK. You can probably tell from my flip-flopping tone. Most of the time, I'm usually neutral or disinterested in his music, as I usually gravitate towards other genres (Tho I'm semi curious about his BMTH collab).
I find it ironic that there is so much drama and distaste surrounding MGK that you can make a 13-minute video about all the reasons everyone hates him. I hope people realize that all this does is prove what an interesting person MGK actually is. He may not be best musician ever or the nicest guy ever, but you gotta admit that he’s really entertaining to talk about! I doubt all of this hate is gonna end his career. It’s just making him stronger at this point.
I think we need to seperate the art from the artist.. his materials are solid. But his persona have serious problems like anyone else, its not fun he need clearly support to deal with things, but most of the people will see only the worse of him. Im proud of having one more star making rock music on mainstream screw all headbangers arguments.
