UPDATE (February 9, 2022): Machine Gun Kelly has released an official music video for “Emo Girl” featuring WILLOW.
“Emo Girl” is the first track to be introduced from the artist’s upcoming album, Mainstream Sellout, due out March 25. The video opens with the song’s producer Travis Barker dressed as a teacher, guiding a student field trip. The students are led through an exhibition of the “Emo Girl” world, with cuts to MGK and WILLOW performing in punk-fueled sets.
Watch above to see what happens to the students at the end of the video.
ORIGINAL STORY (February 4, 2022): Machine Gun Kelly couldn’t help but incorporate his fiancé Megan Fox into his and WILLOW’s new single, “Emo Girl.” The beginning of the track samples a scene from one of the actor’s most iconic movies: Jennifer’s Body.
“I am a God,” Jennifer, AKA Fox, is heard saying right before the music begins to play. Overall, the song will take you on a nostalgic trip as it references other key points from the early aughts, including the fashion with mentions of eyeliner and a Blink-182 tee — a tribute to Travis Barker.
“Emo Girl” is the first single from Kelly’s upcoming album, Mainstream Sellout. It’s his sixth studio album and his second in collaboration with Barker, whom he worked closely with on Tickets to My Downfall.
Originally, the forthcoming LP was supposed to be called Born With Horns, which both MGK and Barker tattooed on their arms. However, Kelly decided to change it last minute. The singer also revealed he’s planning to drop another album later this year.
Mainstream Sellout releases on March 25.
