Yungblud vs. Machine Gun Kelly: The Feud Heats Up

Despite their different backgrounds, Yungblud (Dom Harrison) and Machine Gun Kelly (Colson Baker) once collaborated and occupy similar cultural spaces. Both are celebrity 'rock' stars embraced by music industry icons, making their current feud somewhat inevitable.

The tension seemingly ignited on MGK's Fred Durst collaboration, "Fix Ur Face," with lyrics like "Mickey Mouse kids turned rockstars/ Leaving private schools, tryna be outlaws" perceived as a direct jab at Yungblud. This aligns with Yungblud's background, as highlighted in an interview where he acknowledged attending the Arts Educational School in Chiswick and appearing on the Disney Channel sitcom The Lodge.

The feud intensified when Yungblud posted Instagram footage promoting his festival, Bludfest, discussing the inaccessibility of live music. MGK seized the opportunity to criticize the British musician:

you cancelled a tour because you couldn't sell tickets blamed it on mental health then got parazzi'd at Nobu the next day Pinocchio. ? and your actual tour tickets are still the same price as every other artist. ? shut the fuck up you silver spooned preachy wanker.

While MGK's comment has since been deleted, screenshots confirm its existence. Yungblud's team responded to TMZ, stating, "Dom has not commented directly as he is so busy focusing on his sold-out North American tour and finishing his next album. He genuinely hasn’t got time to engage in any of this but we wish MGK the very best."

Yungblud's tour is currently in San Diego. MGK is releasing a mixtape with Wiz Khalifa this Friday.
