Machine Gun Kelly Is Working On A Pop-Punk Album
Machine Gun Kelly Is Working On A Pop-Punk Album The realm of emo rap has borrowed heavily from pop-punk influences.
As emo rap became incredibly popular with acts like Lil Peep and Juice WRLD at the helm, these influences started to stretch into more corners of rap. Sing-songy hooks continue to feature in tracks with elements of hip hop and that hybrid could be attributed to the artists who grew up during the pop-punk era of the early 2000’s. This pattern could be seen at times in Machine Gun Kelly’s music, but he’s going to take it a step further but making a full-fledged pop-punk album.
MGK shared this news as a side-note in an Instagram post thanking Travis Barker for a gift. The Blink-182 drummer bought him the BE@RBRICK collaboration between mastermind and MEDICOM Toy. The black bear figurine retails for about $360 USD. MGK decided to adorably name his own “MURDER”.
The mentioning of the forthcoming pop-punk record in this post may allude to the fact that Travis Barker will contribute to it. MGK, Travis Barker and YUNGBLUD actually already collaborated on a song titled “I Think I’m OKAY”, which could be considered to fall under the pop-punk umbrella.
In other Machine Gunk Kelly news, he was spotted leaving a Golden Globes after-party with actress Kate Beckinsale. This piece of gossip was thought to be quite scandalous since Beckinsale is the ex of MGK’s best friend, Pete Davidson.
DJ Kay Slay Allegedly Died Of AIDS
A former friend of DJ Kay Slay is spreading a very disturbing rumor about him – saying that he knows what truly killed the legendary NYC DJ. This former friend is telling people on Clubhouse that Kay Slay “died of AIDS.”
Snow Billy, is a former friend of Kay Slay and NYC rapper who once managed Tekashi 6ix9ine. He went on Clubhouse yesterday and told his listeners, “DJ/rapper Kay Slay had full blown AIDS.”
Officially, Kay Slay’s family released a statement at the time of his death – saying that the legendary DJ passed away after a long bout of Covid-19. The family did not reveal any other comorbidity that may have contributed to his death.
We are not able to confirm the veracity of Snow Billy’s statements – and it doesn’t appear that he has any evidence to back up his claims either.
But even without any evidence, Snow Billy’s ‘AIDS’ rumor is spreading like wildfire all over social media.
Listen to the hundreds of people on Clubhouse discussing the rumor that Snow Billy started. We’re not posting the audio here, because it contains a lot of bad language, and many questionable assertions.

When officers arrived, they found a person with a gunshot wound that was not life-threatening to their “lower extremities,” Troutman Police Chief Josh Watson told The Charlotte Observer.

“OK. And why did you do that?” the dispatcher asked.
“He’s trespassing on my property,” the man told the dispatcher. “(Inaudible) about my name. I don’t know what he’s here for. What he’s here to take. What he’s here to do. He’s neutralized until you guys get here.”
