Colson Baker’s rapid-fire lyrical talents earned him the nickname ‘Machine Gun Kelly’ or ‘MGK’ and helped him to shoot his way to the top of the hip hop world.

Cleveland-raised MGK used rapping to get him through a hard childhood with no mother. After releasing several mix tapes starting in 2009, he experienced a meteoric rise in late 2011 when his performance at SXSW was seen by Sean Combs. MGK signed with Comb's Bad Boy imprint that night and released the single "Wild Boy" on the label that same year. MGK's debut album, Lace Up, landed in 2012.

In 2013, MGK released The Black Flag mixtape, featuring likes of French Montana and Wiz Khalifa. Its success saw MGK off on a world-wide international tour, including his first visit to Australia.

In 2015 he released General Admission, a dark, autobiographical LP. The album peaked at number four on the Billboard 200 and topped the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. However, the 2016 duet ‘Bad Things” with ex-Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello ushered in his first #1 hit on Pop radio and a Billboard Award nomination for Top Rap Collaboration, and truly cemented his name in the hip hop history books.

In 2017, MGK issued his third studio album, Bloom which swiftly went gold and has sold over 6 million copies. In

addition to the #1 single Bad Things the album also featured hit singles “Trap Paris” and “At My Best”.

“MGK is one of the most versatile creators around and it is an honour to watch, and be part of, his evolution as an artist. His story is like no other, his sound is so raw and intense, and his new album proves MGK is on top of his game right now. Sean "Diddy" Combs

In addition to his musical successes, MGK has shown his acting chops being signed to the Netflix $30 million-dollar thriller, Bird Box (currently in production). In addition to Bird Box, MGK can next be seen starring in the upcoming Rupert Wyatt-directed, big budget, sci-fi film, Captive State (2018). Rounding out a phenomenal year, Machine Gun Kelly also landed the Winter 2017-2018 John Varvatos Campaign and partnered with Reebok for their Club C sneaker campaign.

Here in Australia for the first time since 2013, don’t miss your chance to see Machine Gun Kelly delivering his lyrics from his latest album plus all his hits with the speed of a bullet.

    BEST CONCERT EVER

    by Dom on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    By far one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to and I will be back to see MGK when he comes back to Toronto on tour! Only problem I had is we had all gate access and stood in line at one gate for over an hour only to be told that we were in the wrong line and had to go to a different gate. No one told us anything about this before only at the very end.

    High energy

    by @psych_ink on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    Great concert with high energy. Ian dior started the show off with a high energy for avril and mgk to carry on. Both ian dior and mgk went into the crowd. Vip general floor pit was definitely worth the money. Definitely would go back to see them both. The venue staff and security was awesome as well.

    The openers were great, and MGK but on an amazing show. The crowd was full of energy, the band was awesome and MGK rocked out. I’ll be back next time he comes.

    MGK puts on a 20/10 show

    by Bri on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    MGK is the best performer ive seen. I would love to go to the final show in Cleavland. My only negative comment, i purchased gold platinum seats and there was a camera man with his big contraption blocking the view to the stage. Extremely disappointed with this as MGK is my absolutel favourite artist and half the stage was blocked.

    Show of a lifetime!

    by Gina on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    The show was absolutely incredible! What’s better than music you love being blasted through an arena? Well, the theatrics around it!! The entrance and all the props during the show made the experience unforgettable. MGK is an amazing artist and made the show feel personal too. Especially after the pandemic, being back in a packed arena like this was just incredible!

    Phenomenal-would see again in a heartbeat

    by EK on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    I had been waiting for this concert since I hear the tour announced and MGK did not disappoint at all. The energy he brought to the stage, his chemistry with his bandmates and his vocals were incredible. You could absolutely tell that he was loving every second of performing and it made for an incredible concert. The great set and the stage effects were the cherry on top. Seeing him live was all I hoped it would be and more and I think ever people who arent super fans would enjoy his show

    Excellent show-Terrible Venue

    by Liz on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    Hands down, an amazing show!! I absolutely love it and all the effects that went with it. Incredible show!! The only negative things I have to say is the venue was way too expensive especially for just a bottle of water. And some people were inconsiderate, spilling beer all over the floor. I wish there was more done to protect us from COVID, with this many people it was insane lol.

    Concert was great, arena was not.

    by Ek on 2022-07-09Scotiabank Arena - Toronto

    The lines for the concessions were so long we had to wait over 20 minutes for drinks. The servers were required to pour canned drinks into cups which took forever. Let them serve cans! It also doesn’t help when you only have one bartender working a station. Very disappointed in scotiabank arena. They were not prepared for the crowds.
