Machine Gun Kelly Blasts Dishonest Musicians Using Sadness As A Marketing Tool
Machine Gun Kelly Slams Dishonest Musicians Using Sadness To Rack Up Sympathy Vote
It’s no brainier that some musicians systematically gain sympathy by singing about depression and sadness. This topic caused rift between between Rod Wave and PnB Rock last month after PnB called out rappers whose songs are majorly about depression and too emotional.
It’s safe to say some of our favorites have played the game in order to gain sympathy from fans to increase their popularity or sell records, and Machine Gun Kelly is calling them out.
MGK recently had a discussion with Kerrang where he talked about being an authentic artist amongst others who use emotional triggers to collect sympathy. “Some musicians are honest… they’re honestly annoying,” Machine Gun Kelly told the media outlet.

“They f*cking cry about everything as a marketing tool and leave no space for people like me who’re like, ‘Yo, I actually never f*cking cry about shit that I wanna cry about, but here I am today ready to cry about some sh*t.’”
He continued, “But I won’t do it because you f*cked the whole landscape up because you’re f*ckin’ crying and went you to your label with a marketing campaign like, ‘Hey, here’s my strategy, I’m gonna f*ckin’ tweet every day about how much I f*cking hate myself and how sad I am and rack up the sympathy vote.’”
Kelly added that he strives to be an artist that doesn’t rely on deceiving his fans. “If I’m such an inspiration to somebody, as sad as I am, aren’t I supposed to show that there’s resilience in that sadness? Aren’t I supposed to show that you’re supposed to smile through it?” he queried.
“I know the internet’s great, but it doesn’t need to necessarily be the form of how I’m going to let my diary out.”
