That added verse is so fire. Love it
Facts
💯
yup! me too
Fkn oath 🔥
I wish it was on the studio version! So dope
I love how mod sun was jumping up and down for your songs, real homie right there
Ikr It was the most wholesome thing I've seen
I didn't see mod sun can you post a link to where he's at

@@jordanbachmann1900 Omg I thought you meant in this video lol I watched it three times looking for a green head bopping. Thank you! Mod sun was so proud! That was really sweet ♥️
@@kimkong7442 You can see him in this video too, for example at 1:07 and 1:53 to the left
Kells really needs to drop a remix of Papercuts with that rap verse, its so fire yet filled with so much emotion and pain, amazing. Also hearing kelly rap again is refreshing
Kelly lmao
im not a fan of his rock shite, but this wasn't bad. he should do the limp biskit thing, would kill.
@@icecoldchilipreppers6496 sorry if I sound like a show off or something but limp bizkit is not good and the thing they made kinda died out quickly.
No
You sound pretty dumb calling him Kelly, actually.
Just saw him in concert in July. I’ve been to hundreds of concerts in my life and it was one of the best I’ve seen. So much fun. He kicks ass.
I spend a lot of nights thinking I might go to sleep and never wake up I spend a lot of money on these therapy sessions Even though I'm not showing up I spend a lot of money healing my mind and my heart But I still put these drugs in my gut Me and my girl were just screaming at each other Right before we both got out of the truck I've got some demons inside I'm tryna free them inside Came up from Cleveland, East Side Where the boy who was just starving with you Now might try to eat you alive, damn Y'all said that I switched genres I saw the limit and took it farther I'm a genius, could've made Donda But this song is for my dead father, uh
He definitely should add it to the song
did he mess up a lil while singing it ? sounds like a lil
@@thumpdbump no, he had to censor it for the VMAs
Thanks bro
thanks for that
the rap was sick !! It make the sound even better :) XX
Yup
Dope af🔥
I hate new mgk fans 😒 they have no idea how good mgk can sound when he raps he legit saved lives with his rap not even joking
@@dohwonkim2495 dats true bro but he's just telling the truth n giving his opinion.....even ik how MGK can be so fcking dope n fire🔥....... we all know dat shit when he fully raps like in the song like Alpha omega, blue skies, world series, etc. But let's just b honest here.....the new MGK is also not even bad its actually dope af......n before his performance in the VMA, there was no rap verse in papercuts but now he added a verse which is freaking fire n dope🔥.....so just chill bro he's just giving his opinion n what he feels like no hate, peace❤😊
@@urgreatestnightmare3412 yeah it's not bad I actually love it since I love blink182 but the new fanbase aren't EST they don't deserve to call theyselves "mgk fans"
i love how ModSun is just having the time of his life on the side of the stage!
After I saw the isolated Mod vma s video-I said I need friends like that. So awesome
Agreed
Did he jump off the stage and died yet? He probably should try that for his next big hits
That rap verse hit me in a part of my heart I didn’t know I had. Didn’t know a song could hit so close to home.
Hey brother everything will be alright Est forever!!
@@erikhernandez4236 yessir 🤝💯
It really does. I'm gonna make a video with the rap verse
MGK - FFS (Audio)🔥 kzhead.info/sun/l9Kje818iomvqHk/bejne.html
You phrased it perfectly - makes me tear up. Powerful!
When he started rapping I swear I got chills cuz I wasn’t even expecting him to do that especially something that had a lot of meaning to him too
Saaaame lol I made an MGK inspired song “dont look like that.” 💚🤍It’s on my page if youre interested. If not, no worries
Killshot
What rap?
kzhead.info/sun/pL57f7ingqiLn2g/bejne.html
@@childbeater6973 did u even watch the whole performance???
“This song is for my dead father” hit me thru the heart bro. 🖤
Same bro my father died 3 months ago
Hard bro bought me to tears
At least he doesn't have to listen to this shit and see him be a douche bag and cling to his 15 min of fame on a red carpet
Why couldn't he just say father instead of dead father?
@@eerievibes6854 "I'm a genius could've made Donda, but this song is for my dead father"... its just a bar referencing Donda being titled after Kanye's deceased mother, but it's MGK's father who is deceased (not his mother) so he'll dedicate this song to him instead.. word play
Fuck he's great live too! I can't believe I'm just discovering MGK's music!
Welcome 🤗🖤
Welcome to the following ✌️🧡
10 months later and I’m still watching this regularly. Legend. Est for life
Let's stop for a minute and apreciate Travis Baker.
Travis Barker
And Eminem
Barker "
travis baker.... lmao
Factss
The added verse was insane! Should be on the real song, or the album ! EST for life !
when he plays it live, he sings the extra verse. Just saw him in Portland do this and it was sick
@@EncodeGGsadly, this is the closest I’ll ever get to one of his concerts🙂
You've got ur wish bro, its on the album
Well…
People hate to admit that he’s such an amazing artist. It’s popular to hate him but you guys wrong af
He is not amazing. This is just a mediocre voice with lame lyrics, that’s it. It sella for sure just as Cardi B sells a lot of her crap
@@anys2793 lmao you’re one of those
Nah he’s awful, especially and awful person
How do ppl like him
@@jc-ke6kw one of those right people. His voice is genuinely fucking atrocious. His band is super tight tho, they covered aerials and everybody but him was amazing!
It’s great to see that he didn’t leave rap behind is still continuing in both genres amazingly
Yelawolf is the teacher
Um pretty Shure he left rap behind some idiot publicist probably told him its what's best after the Eminem bs but he's loosing fans cause he doesn't rap any more
@@3807shawn he didn’t, he just released day Walker a few months ago
@@3807shawn lol his song lyrics are directed towards people like you. People swear they know the guy or his thoughts when they don't know shit (you) 😵
@@sebastianhurtado3762 brodie he has a rap album otw
man we're so happy for u, u deserve everything that is happening to u and there is no one who can say otherwise, we love u, EST is so proud of you!
Agreed
Did y’all know he’s a dick in real life and won’t even take pictures or sign autographs with his fans? Research THAT! I like him too, but he don’t give a shit about his fans. He gets annoyed every time he’s asked an he even says no.
@@The_Cherokee_Gypsy wouldn’t put it past a 30 year old rapper who makes a mockery out of pop punk for clout.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's shit dude. Admit it hahaha
"Everybody so nice lately, everybody not nice." Love it
Riveting....
@@coreyalan3675 right? what is happening lmao
This is an amazing song, and i don't know why some people are saying they don't like it. Personally, i like his music now better than when he did mostly rap.
Living his best life!
it's a song about him being miserable lol
Wtf?
Fugg yea🤘
lol no
@@mgoldenboyz7942 he's talking about the fact he's been performing all over the place the latest being VMAs didn't know I needed to break that down but uhhhhh lmao
Please let this version with the rap verse be on the album as well as the original
or maybe that is part of a whole rap song that he was teasing us with? but I'm getting my hopes up as I did with "breaking News 2". I was hoping for a longer version of that too.
maybe itll be on the deluxe? i doubt hed put two versions of the same song on the actual first release
@@maariahussain4414 he did on tickets to my downfall it’s possible
@Storm November you forgot to put the sight word "the" before Shit. Changes the whole meaning of the sentence. You're welcome.
@Storm November no need to state your opinion if its hateful
His words shake me even more listening to him live.. thankful he has Megan now
Been a fan since the beginning he killed it doesn't matter what genre he puts his voice and art in he's is awesome.
The song was so sick!! Can't even tell you how much I felt it when he said this "song is for my dead father" 💔
Conor McGregor was the first to click this. I've heard he's an Mgk fan.
yeah they hugged at the vmas
@@kneesox3298 they even kissed.
Lol he just doesn't being like told No He slapped an old man turning down a shot of proper twelve 🤦♂️
@@jhimpoekwakwa2133 They even have kids.
he maybe jealous on Stipe because that Till i die entrance was always lit.
This is absolute artistry - what an incredible poet and musician.
I fucking need that new album now
I CANT WAIT FOR HIS NEW ALBUM TO COME OUT!
Same!!
when is it coming out?
Same this new vibe is more serious than the last album which I love too but this new one a heavier hotel Diablo feel love it
@@azharimran1969 no confirmed date, probably before the year ends though
Ummmmmmm???????????????
Lets appreciate how Travis is vibin n doing his dopeshit at back
The little rap just before the end really hit home for me, that was a very touching tribute, Love MGK, he's the real deal!
that added verse was fucking incredible
i need a version of papercuts with the added rap verse. im literally in love with it.
OMG LITERALLY??????????????????
This will crash Spotify we don't want this 🗑️
Seriously new mgk fans are annoying. He’s amazing rapper and rockstar
@@luxbeauty4952 he is bottom 5 rappers of all time
@@arpanbhattacharjee9871 he’s better then 80 percent of the rappers out here that started when he did hands down.
Hearing him rap is so refreshing. I love the new style so much but his rap always scratches that itch
Absolutely love this song! I wish that rap verse he added in was in the actual song, amazing.
Machine gun kelly is favorite music artist his music cheers me up when I get bullied
I have autism schizophrenia and bipolar type 1 with maniac depression. His music makes me feel at piece, I truly am alone in a room filled with people, lonely is a understatement, people have alot of things on their bucket list I have one, to meet machine gun Kelly
Crazy how he can switch genre and make a hit
@@Onepieceistheworstfuckinganime ofcourse we thank Em. He is one of the people who inspired mgk and now mgk is a talented dude.
@@Onepieceistheworstfuckinganime he don't need to thank em now 🤷♂️ dude and what's with that one piece is the worst amine of all time 😂😂you're embarrassing yourself
He never switched. This his home too mate. This is where he STARTED. If anything, making rap is the genre switch.
@@Onepieceistheworstfuckinganime dude the hate train is over you're just being corny now. If you did 5 seconds of research youd see MGK has always been interested in punk and rock
@@malazan6004 They're too slow to think critically lol they say he made him switch genres when he literally released a rap album the year later lmao
Absolutely OBSESSED with this version and this performance. Kells, studio version pleaseee 🖤
he is bringing rock back and I love it
Thank God
Love having a band/guitars/drums close the vmas. Bring the rockstar back. Mgk more than ready to carry Rock. I’m in
i love this man with literally everything i have
I was never a MGK fan before but have really grown to love his music the last couple years.
Kells only been around for 10 years so being a fan in the last couple years still makes you an OG fan
Same. I listened to him when he first came out but I think this genre is where he's meant to be. He's versatile.
He makes me remember Kurt Cobain in this video ❤ I really love him, his music, his art...is just a master piece!
He’s always reminded me a little of Kurt here and there. And I grew up with Kurt, huge fan.
Exactly. Finally fuckn guitars and drums at the vmas. Thank fuckn god. People give him shit but finally theres a real rockstar
one of my favorite songs by you. really hits a chord
I cried after seeing that Machine Gun Kelly won the award for best alternative. One day the happiness that this guy brings me will kill me.👍👍👍👍🥺🥺🥺🥰🥰🥰💕❤️
🥰💔
Oops I meant ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He's not even alternative lol
This song gives me the chills every time! ⚘
If u like this then u need to listen to Where is my mind by Pixies.
@@DaNeOMiTe313 Definitely one of my inspirations man!
I Like how he acknowledges Ye as a genius
Don’t be scared to like MGK out loud!! the fact of the matter is….. HOMIES GIFTED !!!
The broken guitar hurts so fucking bad dude, I'm yet still playing my old 2007 stratocaster
Meh. Kobain wannabe. Green plaid, the angel in the background, drugs etc. Nothing new here. Be happy you have a nice guitar, this stuff is all fake
@@osteoshare8060 its a performance...its supposed to be performative lol.
This performance was everything love to see how far he has come 🥰
I love your music god bless you with your talent keep up the good work buddy
that rap verse gave me goosebumps
Every time I hear that added verse I get goosebumps all over my body
Same lol i make MGK inspired music. Nowhere as good, but they’re on my page if you’re interested💚. If not, no worries
Sammmeeeee
that last verse means so much to his old fans. shit deadass brought me to tears.
I want a studio version of this sooooo bad. I love it.
Wow!! Like this was amazing, Travis drumming skills and Colson just there being him was perfect by far my favourite!! Love them both so much
the RAP part gave me chills all over my body... such a great song
God damn MGK, this is so good. That added verse is so fire 🔥🔥 This version needs to be on spotify, send it
Love this song so much
MGK is one of the best things that happened in 2021. He released so many fn bangers.
The progression reminds me “Where is my mind” by Pixies.
That is one of my favorite songs
I knew it reminded of a song I couldn’t remember what though
Because it’s a total rip off
@@quarantony588 it's called a sample lol
@@The-Endo-SymArmor what kind of sampling is that ? playing the music of someone else's song with different lyrics WTF !!
He sound so much better live like his voice vibe and energy. Omg keep living life kelz
Total Rockstar!!
This is why I'll always be est for life. Mgk speaks from the heart and soul and not only that he can rap rock and play the guitar and make it always sound good. Rock on mgk
So happy he got to live out his dream, he's worked so hard to get there 🖤
I love this man!! Love his style lyrics everything!
i make MGK inspired music. Nowhere as good, but they’re on my page if you’re interested💚. If not, no worries
@@shilohtheghostgod320 💥💥keep it up bro
Agree He creates some great music no matter what genre it is like a real genius
kzhead.info/sun/pL57f7ingqiLn2g/bejne.html
@@shilohtheghostgod320 lol so from dog shit to septictank quality 😂😂
Colson is killing it! Rocked out and spit bars!
I just saw this guy live at Red Rocks (such a beautiful venue), and I cant believe he's so slept on. "I'm a genius, could have made donda, but this song is for my dead father". Str8 Fireeeee
That rap was outstanding 💗
GOD DAMN MGK GOT SOME FIRE BARS🔥 AND I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT WHY THE HECK PEOPLE HATING HIM LIKE A HELL
Finally saw someone speaking faxxx
What are you doing here 😹
Bhai I'm suke YOU LEGIT HERE 😳😳
Finally saw someone from skd fanbase here
Because he's the best alive, simply
I just love him ❤
this video is amazing you are a rockstar in my opinion seriously you deserve all of this
Just wanted to say I’m super proud of you! I remember your chip off the block days ❤️ to this day you’re the most humble artist I’ve ever met.
Humble? 🙈 Are you joking? 😂🤮 He's constantly arrogantly boasting and attempting to demote others. He's always looking to promote his rank (even got himself the status seeking celebrity girlfriend). He's obsessed with being better than others. He even made up stories about rejecting Corey Taylor in a temper tantrum because Corey declined his offer. He mocks Corey and Eminem (two legends who are indisputably more successful than him) them for being older. That's pure vanity right there. He's always going on about how successful he is and how much money he makes... He's an overbearing, proud and shallow airhead. There's nothing humble about that, hun. He's literally the opposite of humble. I suggest you read a dictionary...
@@WayneStakem might be a paragraph but you are totally miss informed on every point you made
I remember when MGK first started learning guitar he posted a Weezer “say it ain’t so” guitar cover. I now realise that the riff in this song is so similar to the one in say it ain’t so by weezer. Just an observation
Most of his stuff is towing the line of plagiarism...... just an observation.
@@heathermiller76 he gets inspired, you can hear both things, one has nothing to do with the other, but if you want to talk shit, you can talk
kzhead.info/sun/pL57f7ingqiLn2g/bejne.html
I am a fan of MGK ! Still tho its beginners level guitar playing but still challenging to sing and play without much experience. Takes mad concentration to sing and rip on the axe.
@@ZenGuitarShred I am a guitarist and although I agree their material is simple, I don’t necessarily think that makes it “beginners level” music. It’s subjective of course
Hey bro I jus wanna say every rapper from back when I was growing up are gone and I’m glad your still hear kells it helps to listen to your songs
Me and my gf saw this amazing man Wednesday in Charlotte and he was the greatest freakin artist ever best time ever when he sang this song it was favorite part of the show
I literally screamed soo loud at his show in Spokane, when he started the new added verse. I was so excited he kept it
I appreciate this track so much
Best artist of this generation!!!!
this is my current favourite song it’s fucking dope
i cant stop listening to it myself and watching the performance.
Every Artist Finds That Glitch. That Works. Great job M.G.K
He needs to rap with the punk music in every song. It's a great combo
Thunder lightening storm matches the song rn ❤❤❤😂🎉🎉🎉🎉 loving it!!
Dude is amazing thanks MGK
This was so good
Ok spammer
Nah
The fact that this genre of music represents both the nostalgic past and the future… THANK YOU AMAZING ARTISTS ♥️♥️
Nope
It really wasn't. His vocals were awful
The best performance of the year ! Can’t stop watching this I love MGK he’s come a very long way !
If you think this was the best then you need to stop listening to just this dude, there's plenty of concerts that looked better
@@silverghost3250I can think what I wanna think you don’t have to agree with me but in my eyes MGK’s performance was the best I’ve ever seen in a long time
Yes that is what happens when you mess with Marshall😂😂😂😂
@@silverghost3250 Whether you like MGK or not, you can't force him to stop liking his music.
Really hope the rumors of this version of "papercuts" being added to "Mainstream Sellout" is true, because it's a crime that I can only listen to this version on KZhead. I wanna bump a studio version of this shit in my car lol.
Feels like a 90's Nivarna show on MTV. Love it!
Bro don't say bullshxt
Yeah that's mad disrespectful. How dare you.
@@keyonak8657 cry
@@AyoAYO-cm6hb Not even close to Nirvana, the quality alone separates the two. The most basic power chords and monotone singing. At least Kurt could sing well and play well at the same time.
@@devinholloway6575 calm down bro it’s just an observation don’t be so offended
Guitar? Smashed. Drums? Tossed. All this was missing was a stage dive or climbing on some part of the venue (which I know Kells fucking loves doing) and it would have been the ultimate punk set. I’m proud to still keep it Laced Up
the ultimate punk set lmao are u joking
Fairly sure needing a check list of clichés is the furthest thing from punk.
And talent
EST 🤘
Haters gonna do wjat they do best and hate 💯
i’m so happy about how far you’ve came,love u mgk
It's amazing where you are from hip Hop to punk rock..... punk rock.. You make it look cool...
MGK is hell of an artist.
Even after 50 60 years u'll still be cool AF ....no matter what kinda artist u become ull always be my fav..
"yall said that i switched genres but song is for my dead father" damn kells really keeps it real
Such a bad ass performance
Absolutely amazing. I look up to you as an artist Mgk keep going.
he's the embodiment of saying f you to anyone who thinks he's not talented
that verse he added is fucking amazing
BRUHHHHHHH....... THIS Screams POWER🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 HOLY. FUC....! If I see MGK Perform Like THIS, Live? I. WILL. PASS. AWAY.!!!! 😳😳😳🔥🔥 WHAT A Performance! 🔥😭
This performance is so fire 🔥
