Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) has marked his birthday with a special musical treat for fans, sharing an Instagram post featuring a cover of the song “Come Pick Me Up” that he recorded with a group of friends. The musician announced that the full version of the cover is available on YouTube and all streaming platforms.
“Jammed a cover with some friends for my birthday,” MGK captioned the post, adding, “song: ‘come pick me up’ full video on YouTube and audio up on streaming.”
A Return To Musical Roots
The cover shows a more stripped-down, indie rock side of Machine Gun Kelly, who has undergone significant musical evolution throughout his career. While he initially rose to fame as a rapper, in recent years he has embraced a pop-punk and rock sound, collaborating with artists like Travis Barker and releasing guitar-driven albums.
This birthday celebration comes as MGK has been particularly active on social media lately. Just days before this post, he announced the completion of a new album, sharing the news with fans through a carousel of images.
“Album’s finally finished!” he wrote in a post from earlier this week, while also showing off a new look, asking followers, “I found out what I look like with a mustache. which one is more important?”
The musician has been open about both professional achievements and personal challenges in recent months. In March, he released a tribute song called “Your Name Forever” dedicated to his friend Daniel “Dingo” Dahmen, who passed away. In an emotional post about his friend’s death, MGK wrote, “Life will always be less without you, but legends never die.”
The birthday jam session with friends demonstrates MGK’s continued passion for music in its various forms, regardless of genre constraints. Fans can now enjoy both the snippet shared on Instagram and the full version of “Come Pick Me Up” on streaming platforms and YouTube.
As Machine Gun Kelly continues to evolve as an artist, this birthday cover offers a glimpse into a more intimate, collaborative side of his musical expression – one that appears to celebrate friendship and musical camaraderie as he marks another year of his life and career.
