Machine Gun Kelly ditches material for fourth album, starting from scratch

Machine Gun Kelly has decided to do away with all of the material meant for his upcoming album. Instead, the Cleveland rapper has decided to turn a new page and start from scratch.

MGK did drop his Binge EP (which included Eminem diss track “Rap Devil”) in 2018. However, with his new-found ambition, it looks like we’ll be waiting a bit for the next full-length.

The rapper took to Instagram today to share that he reached almost 500 million streams on Spotify in 2018. MGK’s Spotify Wrapped also revealed that he reached 33 million fans and had over 25 million hours of listening-time.

However, the rapper also used the post as an opportunity to tell fans that he hasn’t stopped thinking about his fourth album.

“Half a billion streams this year,” the rapper says in the Instagram post. “Very grateful but I didn’t give you the 4th album and I can’t stop thinking about that. I finally figured out what I’m gonna call it last night and I’m starting it all over from scratch. This one’s from the soul.”

While there are no further details concerning the album, we are excited for what MGK has in store for us.
