Along with the tour, the Cleveland rapper confirmed that his album name is Hotel Diablo, which he teased in a short video.


The announcements came after the rapper teased he had big news Tuesday morning. He said he was excited, but said he knew it was bad timing as many people were mourning the death of rapper Nipsey Hussle.

More on Machine Gun Kelly

We’ve heard recently that MGK is gearing up for his next album, which he claims is “just as honest” as General Admission. This was after MGK shared that he had scrapped an entire album. Not wanting to leave fans completely empty-handed, the rapper promised the new material would be coming soon and later teased some new beats in January.

Then, in February, he was in the studio with blink-182‘s Travis Barkerwhich only made us more excited for the album.

Last week, Pete Davidson was filmed jamming out to some unreleased MGK music that shouts-out the comedian. The duo’s friendship is well documented. Davidson appeared in MGK’s “LOCO” video this past summer, road tripped to EST Fest and got a tattoo in inspired by the rapper. We don’t know if it’ll be on the album, but we sure hope it is.

While we’re waiting for something off MGK’s upcoming album, Yelawolf dropped a collab with the rapper, “Rowdy” for his own Trunk Muzik 3 Friday.

Outside of music, MGK has been busy starring as Mötley Crüe’s Tommy Lee in a Netflix biopic about the band, The Dirt. He recently revealed the intense transformation process that was required for him to transform into the role and revealed he spent over four months learning the musician’s signature drum stick move.

Last month, MGK and Mötley Crüe dropped their collab track, “The Dirt (Est. 1981)” on Sex Pistols’ guitarist Steve Jones show “Jonesy’s Jukebox”.

We can’t wait for this huge tour and to hear new music from Machine Gun Kelly. Tickets go on sale Friday here and you can check out the full list of dates below.
