Ranking mgk Tickets To My Downfall Collaborations

When Tickets To My Downfall dropped in 2020, it marked a major crossover moment for MGK (formerly Machine Gun Kelly).

Produced alongside blink-182’s Travis Barker (with whom MGK had already worked on “I Think I’m OKAY” featuring YUNGBLUD), Tickets To My Downfall became a defining moment in the pop-punk revival. It topped charts, divided critics, and reignited interest in Warped Tour-era guitar music—all while proving MGK could thrive outside the rap world. Since… Read more »

Some eras were short-lived (justice for blue streak Andy), others defined entire Hot Topic walls—but every version proved the same thing: Andy fully commits to every aesthetic he touches.
