mgk has announced that he’ll be celebrating the anniversary of Tickets To My Downfall at select North American dates on his upcoming Lost Americana Tour.

The musician – real name Colson Baker – will be performing the record-breaking LP in full in honour of its fifth birthday, which in 2020 saw the then-rapper famously branching out into pop-punk, to massive success.

Speaking to Kerrang! at the time of release about the transition, mgk explained that, “I wanna start out by saying that I would like to normalise how we think about doing multiple types of music. I didn’t ‘switch genres’; I’m versatile, and the wall isn’t boxed in.

“I would like to send good energy and appreciation to people doing things that go against what is an imaginary box that someone too scared to break out of puts around you. I would like to project creativity and love, rather than limitations. Limitations cause you to look at me with my pink nails and believe that this same hand won’t punch you in the face, right? Limitations would cause you to believe that, because I’ve put out four albums that are rap, I shouldn’t put out a fifth album that’s not rap.”
