MGK goes undercover and asks fans about… MGK!
Self-deprecating humor is always funny. Machine Gun Kelly was recently on Jimmy Kimmel and hit Hollywood Boulevard dressed as “press” asking people walking by what they thought about certain celebrities, more specifically, MGK. His disguise was so great no one knew who it was, except for some odd reason Spiderman did. What people talk about how much they like or dislike Machine Gun Kelly to his face!

Remembering Kurt Cobain
28 years ago today, a generation lost its voice. Kurt Cobain, lead singer of Nirvana, took his own life 28 years ago today after a long battle with depression, addiction, and the pressures of being the biggest rocks tar on the planet. And while he left us way too soon, there is no denying the mark he made on pop culture, music, and an entire generation. I remember listening to WKQX the day it happened, glued to the speakers for confirmation that the rumor was true, and for the shared experience of an audience mourning the loss of its hero. Here are a few of my favorite Nirvana tunes that I will be playing at max volume all day today.
