Mad Respect for this dude. He does what he feels, and that’s how you get good music. Do I miss battle rapper MGK, yes. Do I still appreciate his music, absolutely. Regardless, one of the best modern musicians.
Dude actually someone who’s saying it. Everyone is saying get Back to the Rapper MGK and hating him. But no one cares about what Colson want. He’s just fucking Legend.
Yes man, preach. My dad hates MGK because hes not a rapping and is just punk. He says that MGK isnt loyal to his original stuff, when in reality he just expanding
Really...one of the best modern musicians...?i like his material but he doesn't come close to the top 20 best musicians of this, his or any generation!
I dont understand why we are arguing on this its just an art...if u dont like it doesnt mean it bad...atleast respect the art.People work really hard on their arts and its not easy to reach this level with bad music. He is a true musician and if you dont respect this art atleast respect the amount of efforts it took to make it.
Well when you use one genre just to dis on someone for notoriety, then butcher another in Doc Marten knockoffs, I guess all you've got left are covers when you lose people's respect as an artist.
Idk why everyone's getting mad. He's not trying to be frank, he's not trying to be better than him. Let the man dedicate a song to a legend and just appreciate the good music. If it's not your shit then it's not your shit but as far as I'm concerned both versions are fire in different ways
Haters. They're pathetic. If I don't like an artist, I simply don't listen to them. These people waste so much time and energy shitting on everything this man does because they are filled with hatred. It's sad and pathetic.
My fiancé committed suicide almost 2 years ago. I still haven’t recovered from it. He and I would always go snorkeling in Maui together. I can’t tell you how many times I have just wanted to fly back out there and just swim into the ocean and just let it swallow me up. This song just really speaks to me. Love it, and love MGK. Keep giving up amazing songs that really touch our souls.
@@VideoGameCassettes love this! Love the ocean to sit by, walk along, but. I'll take a pool to swim in. Lol! Although have snorkeled close to the sand in St. lucia.
This is the side of MGK I love the most. His new pop punk stuff is amazing and I can’t stop listening to MS and TTMD but I miss when he used to spit as he has such a talent for it. The chill rap with subtle rock undertones like this, his lockdown sessions and parts of hotel Diablo are where he fucking shines man 🔥
Right? As much as I love the new stuff, Hotel Diablo is forever my fav for sure. And the covers like this where he adds something new to it. I like his deeper darker music the most I think.
Mgk a legend I don’t care what anyone says people love you hate this man no matter how talented he is his music has saved me thru dark times in my life he’s truly one of the best in our era tbst don’t get credit when its due
I get that it doesn't really sound like the original but I think it's still good. He just used a new tune and kept the lyrics. Why are y'all so negative?
@@AllTimeAwsome they all meat riding each other too. Like its franks music, not theirs, they can keep their useless input to themselves and stick to doing nothing in their life 🤣
Because Odd Future/Frank Ocean fans don't understand the concept of a cover song. Shit some people didn't even know I Will Always Love you was a Dolly Parton song and not Whitney Houston
He personalized the cover as he should! Otherwise if you make exactly the same song what's the purpose..?! I listen to the original. He made his own version and added some amazing verses!
I think some of the criticism is pretty fair. Especially the criticism around his voice being monotone...if you cut the production back as far as he did here, atleast have the voice to carry the song.
Honestly. There's actually way more people who like MGK than the people who hate him now, it's just unfortunate that all the hate comments just so happen to be the one with the most likes. Most comments on here are loving this cover. People don't know how to critique things anymore, they're so blinded by their hatred that no matter how good one of his songs is, they'll always find SOMETHING to talk shit about. I guarantee that if it was literally any other artist that did this cover, and sounded exactly the same, everyone would eat it up.
This man can rap, sing and act all while being an amazing dad/friend/family/fiance, his versatility just never ends. "We don't switch, we just add" -Machinegunkelly EST4life🤘
Sadly his singing is terrible without autotune... his father skills are known to be terrible, he's an emotional wreck and speaks of killing himself while his daughter sleeps. I think you're blinded by the "image" of him being a celebrity, which in most cases is the complete opposite.
So sorry for your loss :( may peace be with you. I lost my nana last year and this song along with many other mgk songs helped me through. Stay positive friend 🫶
On god! It really is hard to hit the notes he’s hitting with ease! I also make Hip-Hop music with a blend of old school lyrics, and modern day trap beats!! I was hoping to get some thoughts on this new song to help improve and get better 🙏❤️
Especially Disturbed, their covers are also amazing!! I also make Hip-Hop music with a blend of old school lyrics, and modern day trap beats!! I was hoping to get some thoughts on this new song to help improve and get better 🙏❤️
@@501jaylee I agree! Love Disturbed. Also, I'm not really into beats, but I listened to your latest song and I think you're doing well. Just gotta put the work in and you could definitely go somewhere. Don't take my advice too harshly though cause I'm obviously not a professional
@@TIGERonXbox That's not true at all. Creativity is shown through taking something and making it your own, while still giving credit of course. MGK shows his creativity in choice and style. Also it doesn't matter if Frank likes Colson💀that has nothing to do with him covering the song
kinda hated on this song a little cause my girlfriend used to play it nonstop and it would drive me nuts... now shes my ex and i can't stop playing it.. what i wouldn't give to hear her sing it again..
you all should stop hating on him saying that the song isn't good when it's actually good and that Frank Ocean's version better , if u really think Frank Ocean's version is better just think that this cover is Mgk's version
Intro] Hey [Verse 1] That's a pretty big trunk on my Lincoln town car, ain't it? (Town car ain't it, ain't it) Big enough to take these broken hearts and put 'em in it, yeah Now I'm ridin' 'round on the boulevard, trunk bleedin' (Trunk bleedin', bleedin') And everytime the cops pull me over, they don't ever see them They never see them And I've got this black suit on (Suit on, suit on) Ridin' around like I'm ready for a funeral Five more miles 'till the road runs out [Chorus] I'm about to drive in the ocean I'ma try to swim from somethin' bigger than me Kick off my shoes And swim good, and swim good Take off this suit And swim good, and swim good [Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly & Megan Fox] (Drowning in your holy water is a sick line) I'm drowning in your holy water hold me under longer Hold this rib that I gave you just don't pierce my under-armour Under covers with her laying and she said her devil colored Gun through the teeth at your brain if you're thinkin' bout another, bang Same vintage leather jacket with secret pockets (Yeah) Skeletons in my closet next to the sneaker options (Yeah) Fashion killer look inside you could see the coffins The 'caine ables me to function nice when my bodies stoppin' Bridge] I'm scarfaced, smokin' in this bath water My guitar case really just a cash holder, Gun attached for the task force ready for a car chase Nothing's too fast for it yeah, yeah [Chorus] I'm about to drive in the ocean (Drive in the ocean) I'ma try to swim from somethin' bigger than me Kick off my shoes And swim good (And swim good), and swim good (And swim good) Take off this suit And swim good, and swim good [Outro] (Swim good)
All the people hating on Kells for doing covers but he's doing it his way as a tribute to frank I think it's beautiful I listen to the original and this cover both are good
Just in case anyone needs the lyrics: Hey, That's a pretty big trunk on my Lincoln town car, ain't it? (Town car ain't it, ain't it) Big enough to take these broken hearts and put 'em in it, yeah Now I'm ridin' 'round on the boulevard, trunk bleedin' (Trunk bleedin', bleedin') And everytime the cops pull me over, they don't ever see them They never see them And I've got this black suit on (Suit on, suit on) Ridin' around like I'm ready for a funeral Five more miles till the road runs out I'm about to drive in the ocean I'ma try to swim from somethin' bigger than me Kick off my shoes And swim good, and swim good Take off this suit And swim good, and swim good (Drowning in your holy water is a sick line) I'm drowning in your holy water hold me under longer Hold this rib that I gave you just don't pierce my under-armour Under covers with her laying and she said her devil colored Gun through the teeth at your brain If you're thinkin' bout another, bang Same vintage leather jacket with secret pockets (Yeah) Skeletons in my closet next to the sneaker options (Yeah) Fashion killer look inside you could see the coffins The 'caine ables me to function nice when my bodies stoppin' I'm scarfaced, smokin' in this bath water My guitar case really just a cash holder (Hmm) Got attached for the task force ready for a car chase Nothing's too fast for it yeah, yeah I'm about to drive in the ocean (Drive in the ocean) I'ma try to swim from somethin' bigger than me Kick off my shoes And swim good (And swim good), and swim good (And swim good) Take off this suit And swim good, and swim good (Swim good)
Well done just one minor mistake and I'm sorry for pointing it out I didn't wanna be that guy but the word sets a cadence and I have to lol " Gun* attached for the task force , ready for a car chase, nothings to fast for it yeah,yeah "
" The caine ables me to function nights when my body stoppin " such depth in that one , the story of Kane and Abel Kane kills his brother Abel so it's like he saying cocaine kills the pain but the cocaine is a relative to that pain and the cycle of it all, idk dude always drops some gems 💎 if you listen lol
Should’ve seen 2013 black flag vibes - mans had a whole website, countdown, and operations leading to the release of black flag.. Not to mention his clever title release with est fest years back…. He has continually been working hard and never stops grinding the gears in his mind. LOVE
Talented guy thats nice not only doing very good rap and bad ass and doing popular cultre song like punk rock even if own swag and classic song done bout this song own comment respect kelly u done u have old soul from ancint time existing
This, and his Smoke and Drive song was amazing, he should definitely do more like this!! I also make Hip-Hop music with a blend of old school lyrics, and modern day trap beats!! I was hoping to get some thoughts on this new song to help improve and get better 🙏❤️
This cover is really good...that Second verse is insane with them biblical references " Hold this rib I Gave u just don't pierce my underarmor" "This (Nova) Caine/Cain ables/Abel's me to function" and a couple others, I like both versions they each have their own vibe 🤘
Hebrews 12:14 Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. Acts 3:19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, John 3:16 'For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 3:19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
Frustrating to see how many people just cannot grasp that music taste differs and that a cover doesn't have to sound like the original. I think that what makes covers interesting that someone can interpret a song and add his own feelings to it. I love this cover and tbh most/all of his covers and I weren't even a mgk fan beforehand. For real guys get your shit together how frustrating to see how hateful you are. Mgk does a great job to express himself how and with what he wants. He doesn't stick to one thing cause that is what depresses people to make music only for their audience he simply makes music for himself and whoever doesn't accept this is simply not mature enough in life
YASSS! You just said EVERYTHING we're ALL thinking.. IMO, this song is so AMAZING because he put his own Artistry,POV, and spin on it; actually a REALLY HARD task, that not many artists could pull off TBH. I'm blown away. It's GREAT. It's beautiful. IT'S Something so refreshing & different; Something that is so NEEDED RN. Much Love, SUPPORT, and Positive Vibes. Can't wait for the new album to drop!! & to see what it has in store, because he can do sooo many different things with it. He's grown AND evolved so MUCH over the years. It's insane. This song may be different than what ppl are used to, or expected, HOWEVER, I'm livinggg for it. 2022 MGK is SUCH a talented artist..❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥❌❌🤘🏼🤘🏼✨✨
Seems like MGK has calmed down a lot. A lot of people out there don't realize that a lot of artists do that over time. Not saying it's good or bad just making an observation is all.
I think that it's kinda sad to see people here critizing mgk for this song when he did it for his fans covering a song from an artist that he loves, not prettending to be better, and u all are blaming him instead of appreciating his music taste... this damn haters.
Love this cover!❤ WOW the haters in the comments have nothing better to do than try to put someone down that hasn’t done anything to you. He’s HUMAN and he’s not hurting you, so move along. It’s ridiculous how you act and say such hurtful things. His true fans will be here till the end. Love you MGK.❤
@@Corbindcollins it’s not horrible. I’m a big frank ocean fan, and obviously the original is way better, but I have to say this isn’t terrible. Way way better than his original music too.
I hope you’re doing okay Colson, and that you’re taking care of yourself (keeping yourself always busy by working constantly isn’t the solution you know :( ). And I deeply hope that you know how much you’re loved. Your voice always speak right to my soul and I already love this cover so so much. Thank you for everything Colson.💘 And in case you don’t know, you’re enough. 🙏🏻
When I was young, my grandfather smokes. One day my mother told him he better quit or else he'll never see his grandchildren graduate. Tears welled up in his eyes and he quit that instant. Sadly he died 3 years later. My mother told me "you better not smoke or else you'll end up like your grandfather." My whole life I've never smoked or even touched a cigarette. Didn't matter bc this shit gave me cancer anyway.
how can people be so mad at themselves, that they have to put other people down so much. he‘s so talented, his live performances are insane, his voice live, just everything!
