Machine Gun Kelly Wants To Help You End Your Relationship This Valentine’s Day
Machine Gun Kelly really isn’t in the Valentine’s Day spirit this year. Rather than use the holiday to debut a lovey-dovey new single, the rapper aims to wipe out all the mushiness with his ex-blasting “The Break Up” video.
Directed by Jordan Wozy, the vid shifts through bright, color-coded rooms filled with plants, alcohol, drugs, and big “Fuck You” balloons. MGK appears on the phone with his now-ex, delivering a scathing break-up speech punctuated by the song’s merciless hook: “I wish I loved you / Or that I cared / Or that I’d even give a damn if you were here / But you’re gone, so it’s fuck you.”
But that’s not all — MGK also launched a “1-800-The-Break-Up” website that allows wannabe singles to text relationship-ending messages to their unfortunate beaus. If your own words fail, there’s pre-set ones with messages like, “Wanna know a joke? Our relationship” and “Wanna see a magic trick? Poof! You’re single.” And if you really want to go for the jugular, there’s even one that says, “I’m literally using a website to break up with you RN. This is not a joke.” Ouuuuuch!
As the rapper explained on Instagram, “If ur partner ever pulled some fuck shit — now is the day to let em know.” Pretty harsh, yes — especially if you send one on Valentine’s Day of all days — but it’s at least sure to get the job done.
