Review: Machine Gun Kelly looks to find himself on "Lost Americana"
Machine Gun Kelly's new album "Lost Americana," arrived on Friday after a significant buildup, including a trailer narrated by Bob Dylan and a viral TikTok dance.
The tracks range from pop-rock ("Cliché,""Sweet Coraline") and southern-rock ("Miss Sunshine") to hip-hop ("Indigo,""Tell Me What's Up").
Zoom in: Lyrically, "Lost Americana" is one big confessional that culminates with the heart-rending "Treading Water."
The song touches on MGK's newborn daughter with actress Megan Fox and the highly publicized breakup between the two.
Our take: Not everything works. The hard rocker "Don't Wait Run Fast" feels a bit generic.
