Machine Gun Kelly has a new look — and, soon, some new music, too.
Colson Baker (the musician behind the MGK moniker) debuted his new blackout tattoo on Tuesday — and it's intense. The permanent design blocks out most of the musician's arm sleeve and chest tattoos, leaving a cross design on his chest and abdomen.
Is it a religious thing? Um, maybe. In an Instagram post debuting the new look, Baker wrote "for spiritual purposes only" in the caption.
The ink was done by Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Roxx, who's known for their unique blackout tattoo designs.
Following that announcement, MGK is set to premiere a new single and music video, "dont let me go," on Wednesday. It's the musician's first music release of 2024, and it follows a 2023 lofi release with lonelyboy, and MGK's 2022 album Mainstream Sellout — you know, the album which led to MGK's stadium show in Downtown Cleveland, and the resulting MGK Day designation in the city.
