@@Emmett_Q_2012 yeah, his music is very basic now a days and I miss how he used to be. I do understand artist growth though and he seems a lot happier now where hes at, but his songs used to be so much deeper and meaningful in my opinion before he got signed to a label that plays his music on the radio
He's just changing with the times... If he made every album or mixtape in this style then people would complain that it all sounds the same sadly🤷♂️🤷♂️ He never abandoned this style but he's just become an artist that's been really versatile and wants to try new things even though I myself miss this sound.
@@WinterReflections Best Midwest Artist at the 2010 Underground Music Awards and his "Alice in Wonderland" clip won Best Music Video at the 2010 Ohio Hip-Hop Awards. He won that time
9 years later 3.1 million views! Yessss mgk you are so talented, I knew when I first listened to this song 9 years ago, you would blow up! Est4life ✖✖❤💯
2011 was my first mgk concert. Attended every concert from Illinois to Wisconsin. Met him in Milwaukee! Just seen him oct5th 2021! I know every song...features to even if its small or old. On God I loved this man so long and hard. Put so many people onto him....I thought he sold out with the tickets to my downfall but then when I seen him on stage, he's still the same and he's only gotten better! I wasn't even legal my first concert, I've never seen or wanted a man so bad. Lol I'm 26 now and its still the same but he's truly a gift from God! I can't relate to new fans, but I'm happy he's gotten as big as he ever wanted! I knew he would way back when he was a joke to people. I found mgk from a guy I was seeing and fell in love with his looks, but stayed for his talents! Cleveland was the first track I heard & everytime I hear or see mgk in something I'm there! Some people will never know how much this man truly put out!he might think old tracks like this are bad or garbage now but they will always be what made most us fall inlove.
@@kclorrainedawson9206 you missed out on so much. Listen to his old music first, so that you can spread the word to all of your friends and put them on some good songs... this one wasn't anything special.. The majority of people saying how em changed him are lame. But there's a lot of us who have been fans since the 2000's. He grew up in the hood. To see him in crop tops, fishnets and pink dresses, even has a nail polish line now. I've always been a fan of pop punk. MGK can make whatever music he is enjoying. And especially what sells. If anything, he has the talent for both-- so that would be his best bet. An artist can play a genre without becoming a completely different person. Unfortunately, hotel Diablo was the last good album he put out. Those that are just getting on to him, of course are gonna defend his music but anyone who has followed him and supported for 15+ years... are mindblown at his changes. For some reason I can't make another comment so this one became super long, sorry! I am a recovering addict so his song "lead you on" has always meant SO much to me. On January 19th, so.. 2 days ago.. was my 4 year sobriety date 🤗
@@jess_jeff7549 Ill listen to his music but I don't get fan crazy or think their something special... I mean yea he's talented an yes his looks in style an many other things have changed but its not him or magen doing it it's the music in industry and style and what's trending and what people will like and what will grab attention and stuff and what will be booked and all that but it's just I'm pretty sure that if MGK didn't like it he would say he's not going to do or he's not with it so it's not really him changing its him being more open-minded and more opportunity more influence and not being plan or original he's being himself he's doing anything for him to be himself to try to show people that who he is through his music and his style I mean you can go from gang-related and streets and s*** to dressing and acting however you want you're still affiliated with them you're still the same you no matter what he's still Cole I think that's what his name is I usually just refer him to MGK
@@jess_jeff7549 but I'll check his music out cuz I may not love his voice and I love his personality did I can relate to him honestly like maybe not fully relate cuz I don't know his situation and what he's going through but his music and the way he acts and the way he feels and the way he has his anger and his mind I relate to I act like everything's all right and I'm fine and I'm perfect and that I'm not better than anyone but really enhance I'm just screaming in my head and like pissed the f*** off like what is wrong with me like why did I you know it's just lots of thoughts n thoughts you know
tbf fame changes any and everyone a little and mostly MORE than a little but mgk hasn't changed that much. He tries his best to stay close to his fans like he did back in the day but its so hard now because any and everywhere he goes he has tmz on his ass and when hes around on socials he gets flooded with negative comments which 110% a tole on his mental health. Just last week someone made a thread of how he's abusing megan fox and he went afk for a bit on twitter but the first thing he likes coming back is "y’all preach mental health matters until it’s @machinegunkelly lmfao" which to me shows that he literally saw that thread. Which honestly breaks my heart..
@@TrTriTrippin thats very true. mans went from what 20 when this was made to 32? hes said it himself hes an entirely different person with some similarities.
The ones that hate mgk are the ones who know little to nothing about him. He honestly he has some of the biggest stars as friends, if he was so bad no one would fuck with him. Mgk is chill as shit. I've been a fan since 2011. I've got to meet him and share a laugh and made him smile. He was so sweet and fun and makes you feel like your chillen with friends. He's not like anyone else you will ever meet. I have attended so many concerts of his I don't even know what number I'm on. He gives you a fucking show. I knew back then he was gonna be here. I told him he would be. I have watched him accomplish so much. Know every song, feature. Every movie he's done. I have been following his life for over 10 years. He deserves everything he's getting because he fucking busted his ass to get here.People think I'm crazy because I've been in love with mgk for over 11 years. Lol I've attended so many of his concerts I've lost track and even got to meet him. I knew he was gonna be big and everyone laughed. Lol I spoil myself with anything mgk. Lol he tweeted about me back when because I was so young saying I'd tap that in his inbox lmao but now I'm 27 and still would haha. I think Megan is the luckiest girl in the world and she doesn't even know it.. Literally going to his concerts until he stops Goin est for life❤️ Oh and I'm in that book made for him by est fans🤍
You obviously know nothing about famous people but I do first hand. You're arrogant and I've been intertwined with these people for nearly 30 years while my brother is one of the biggest names in entertainment as a casting director and other roles of production. *No one on TV is who you believe they are and the majority are utterly despicable people. You just lectured us about a stranger who is loved by other strangers to you. They aren't strangers to me and I already said what I know of them through countless first hand experiences with them.* You're another idiot.
2019 and still one of my favorite songs of his! He came a long way so weird watching this again though with his very little tats but still just as amazing
This was the song that caught me back in the day. Been riding since! EstXX ❤️ I’m sure if I was from Cleveland I would’ve been there for the before too. Proud of you kells!!!! Your dad and aunt must be so proud to have watched you bloom. Follow your dreams and not stop till you reached it. You did it man 🤍
Mgk-Northern Rapper Yelawolf- Southern Rapper Eminem- Northern Rapper All of which are great artists. However, They got different styles. I wouldn't waste my time comparing them. They all inspire us, get us through the tough times, and get us hyped as fuck. Smoke one, listen to the damn song, and above all.... LaceTheFuckUp!
Finally somebody I can listen to, CD all the way through. I feel like he quenching my thirst from the Bone Thugs vibe I been missing. Truth, loyalty and laid back harmony. I'm loving this boy!
MGK still hasnt dropped anything better than his first two tapes. Still one of his best songs. I remember bumping these tapes during my sophomore year in 2011. Time flies...
Real MGK fans know this shit before it hit a mill. I was jamming dude when this had 500 views I knew this kid was gonna be great. I watched his journey. Fuck the beef shit. Love you MGK thank you
This kid is a awsome rapper. I can see him going very far in live. Keep it up MGK you music is fing awsome. Love the beats the sound of your music. All i can say is awsome job. Hope you can rap sometime with eminem make a song. keep it up BRO.
found my way here with all the talk about him and Em so I went to MGK's Wikipedia page and started reading... fascinating stuff and I can see that I am able to judge the progress of his career by how many tattoos I see... lol
I'm watching this in August 2022. Sae him live in March here in Argentina. Once of the best shows I've seen and my favourite artist right now. I'm so happy I'm able to be part of what he dreamed of: people liking his music and respecting him as an artist overall. This proves hard work and believing in yourself despite awful people and hardship can actually make the difference. You made it, kid. See you when I get there myself.
[Verse 1] Yo I was, raised on a seperate side of the track in the land where the wild things roam Open up my closet see a tall leaf growin, pick a leaf off of the stem take it all to the dome Callin it, the Alice in Wonderland, spiralin down the medium better known as time I'm stumblin Come back to my senses from the sounds of thunderin, trees talkin to me wonderin if ill ever come again Every single day until I'm seein the sun again Starin at the ripples skippin rocks in the pond again Stimulatin every single cell while I'm ponderin And the green leaves are fallin and shrivelin like the Summer end What shall I do, where do I go I want the fumes in put the towel under the door I'm feelin the dro, puff it in and releasin the smoke Its not enough for me, I want it if u got it fa sho There are, things talkin to me mommy I swear I'm seein figures in the dark get up and nobodys there Intangible shadows are fucking with me reaching for nuthin So I take a hit of this Alice now I'm hopin for somethin Fuck all the puffin, elmer it up get to the huffin Treat it like Christmas turkeys open up and get to the stuffin See if I'm bluffin, I'm ready to go to the moon Ill do whatever whenever promise it'll get me there soon [Hook] I'm lost in my own mind, where do I go I swear This wonderland's not what I used to know (voices in my head telling me to go to) Wonderland (blisseded up feel the smoke run my hands) Wonderland (twisted up, sip it chop it if you in) Wonderland (Sit back let me how show u how it begin) Wonderland (where my mind I think I lost in the end) [Verse 2] Take me to the twilight zone, no lights on At the altitude where u be seein all the kites flown,(YEAH) Family concerned and convinced that my mind gone And they right, last night first class flights gone,HEY Mommy why the fuck the flowypier gotta mouth now Conversatin why I'm layin on the ground now About face told me to get out now See the revolution of tomorrow in the clouds now So far gone, but I'm not Drizzy Cleveland's own but I'm not Bizzy Nope no bone well then who is he? I don't even know anymore I swear I done went crazy (BAHH) All this talk about the life and the ice in the right hands could get u the dream and a nice tan But they don't say is the price is ya life plus a slice of ya soul as man and ya right hand 21 as long the cards set right Drop on my saliva gave my card deck life Queen of hearts tryna take away my best type The Ace of Spade make a muthafucka bet right Creepy crawlers tryna sneak up gimme bed bites Hide under the cover keep intruders out my bed life Hug the pillow keep it tucked under my head tight So the toothfairy cannot get up in my head, night [Hook]
