Papercuts - Machine Gun Kelly - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Machine Gun Kelly is peak emo on "Papercuts," the first single from his sixth studio album Born with Horns – marking a darker, heavier direction for the emo rap-rocker – which was released in August 2021 and was touched by the hand of pop-punk royalty with drumming and production from collaborator Travis Barker of Blink-182 fame. Taking a softly softly approach in the subdued, accoustic-led opening ("Bleach my hair, mess it up / Take my life, dress it up / Signed a deal, I got papercuts / They wanted them, but they got us / Yeah, yeah, uh.") "Papercuts" soon erupts with outsider punk energy ("Uh, sleepin' in, faked sick / Smoked a blunt, had a kid / Don't belong, I'm a punk / Hello world, you fuckin' suck") on a song that explores the rapper and singer's difficulties adjusting to his newfound celebrity after he went public about his relationship with A-lister Megan Fox.
