Good news for hardcore pop-punk fans! Blackbear and Machine Gun Kelly have collaborated to release the breakup anthem titled "GFY."
Surprisingly, the single is produced by one of the most notable musicians in the rock industry, Blink-182's Travis Barker.
According to iHeart, the song is part of Blackbear's upcoming sixth studio album titled "In Loving Memory."
The track references their breakup experiences and toxic relationships without naming their exes. The rock singer first came in with the first verse, singing, "Look at this picture, somethin' ain't right/ I'm feelin' sh***, broken inside/ You cut me up in four-letter lines/ Stabbin' my back with this four-letter lie."
MGK then went back to his hip-hop roots as he rapped on his verse, referencing the hit HBO series "Euphoria."
"Please, take me out of this episode of Euphoria/Back to the Waldorf Astoria," the lyrics read.
This is not the first time the duo collaborated on a song as Blackbear was a part of Machine Gun Kelly's two previous albums, "Tickets to my Downfall" and "Mainstream Sellout," for the songs "My Ex's Best Friend" and "Make Up Sex."
According to NME, the song was accompanied by a music video that features MGK as a wanted murderer who lives near Blackbear's house.
The video references classic thriller films like Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window."
Directed by John Tashiro, the music video had cameos from Benny Blanco and Mike Posner.
Blackbear's New Album Coming Soon
According to the outlet, the punk rock singer is currently working on his sixth studio album, which is expected to arrive anytime soon.
Speaking about his new album "In Loving Memory," Blackbear said fans should expect a "fun intermission in an otherwise vulnerable project."
Machine Gun Kelly Going Back to His Hip Hop Roots
Although the 32-year-old singer initially debuted as a rap artist, he also gave pop-punk music a shot two years ago.
Little did he know, switching genres would shoot him into mainstream music as his two previous albums, "Tickets to My Downfall" and "Mainstream Sellout," were his most successful records that had number-one singles in the United States.
However, it seems like MGK is going back to his first love as he revealed to Audacy Music that he's going to "find a new innovative sound for the hip-hop Machine Gun Kelly."
