Book Machine Gun Kelly
MGK, who first recorded as Machine Gun Kelly, has moved from rap headliner to pop-punk chart-topper across nine studio albums and earned a Grammy nomination. He self-released four mixtapes between 2007 and 2010 before signing with Bad Boy Records, part of Interscope. His debut album, Lace Up (2012), reached number four on the Billboard 200 behind "Wild Boy" with Waka Flocka Flame, his first Hot 100 entry. General Admission (2015) and Bloom (2017) kept him in the upper reaches of the chart, and "Bad Things" with Camila Cabello climbed to number four on the Hot 100. Hotel Diablo (2019) pushed toward rap rock, and Tickets to My Downfall (2020), produced entirely by Travis Barker, opened at number one on the Billboard 200 as the only rock album to debut there that year. Mainstream Sellout, Lost Americana and Blog Era Boyz extend the catalog into 2026. He has also acted, including a role in the Netflix thriller Bird Box, and he founded the EST19XX label and collective.
