On April 21, Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) unveiled his latest single titled “Fix Ur Face,” featuring Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit. The track has ignited a fervent debate among fans, with many speculating that certain lyrics indicate a feud between the rapper and fellow artist Yungblud, as well as the notorious Osbourne family.


In “Fix Ur Face,” MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, includes lines that fans interpret as jabs directed at Yungblud, particularly the phrase, “Mickey Mouse kids turned rockstars / Leaving private schools, tryna be outlaws.” This has drawn attention as Yungblud is known to have attended Ackworth School, a private boarding institution in Yorkshire, before going on to the Arts Educational School in London.
Criticism has erupted from various corners of social media, with some users defending Yungblud’s authenticity as an artist. One comment remarked, “The funny thing is — Yungblud is more of a legit rockstar and talent than MGK will ever be.” The sentiment criticises MGK’s perceived attacks on Yungblud’s schooling background, questioning the rapper’s credibility in making such claims.
Additionally, another section of MGK’s lyrics appears to reference the Osbourne family, who have previously made comments indicating a lack of appreciation for MGK’s style. The line, “And all the oldheads tryna kill the vibe / But rock’s not dead as long as I’m alive,” seems particularly pointed. In a past episode of “The Osbournes” podcast, Kelly Osbourne had suggested that MGK was imitating her friend Yungblud’s distinct use of pink, to which Sharon Osbourne expressed a less than favourable opinion about MGK.
Though Yungblud did not publicly defend himself during that podcast episode, fans have now resurfaced the clip and taken sides. Supporters of MGK argue that the rapper’s lines were a necessary response to what they see as unfounded critiques. Meanwhile, others feel that targeting Yungblud, who is nearly a decade younger, is simply childish.
Social media continues to buzz with commentary on this emerging conflict. One fan, who identifies as a supporter of both MGK and Yungblud, expressed their disappointment, stating, “I have to say one side of this is far more pathetic than the other… The one-sided beef with a guy nearly 10 years your junior… is just corny, man.” This highlights the tension between MGK’s contrived rivalry and Yungblud’s more spirited, less confrontational persona.
While MGK hasn’t made any detailed statements about the controversy surrounding his lyrics, he did engage with fans on X after the song’s release, writing, “I see one particular line is going over your heads.” The ambiguous nature of his comments has done little to quell the speculation.
MGK and Yungblud have previously collaborated, including their joint track “I Think I’m Okay,” featured on MGK’s 2019 album “Hotel Diablo,” and Yungblud’s 2020 song “Acting Like That.” In earlier interviews, MGK expressed admiration for Yungblud, describing him as an integral part of a new wave of rock musicians. He characterised their relationship as a collaborative effort across the Atlantic, suggesting they could represent a new era of rock music.
Meanwhile, “Fix Ur Face” marks a significant statement from MGK as it follows his 2025 album “lost americana.” The artist is actively touring in support of this release, with plans to conclude the tour in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, later this year.
As the lines between friendly rivalry and animosity blur in the music industry, the release of “Fix Ur Face” has undoubtedly added fuel to the fire surrounding MGK’s evolving narrative. With supporters on either side of this debate, it remains to be seen how both artists will navigate the shifting dynamics of their relationship and what this means for their respective careers going forward. Whether it is a petty feud or an honest expression of competitive spirit, the situation continues to attract significant attention among fans and industry observers alike.
