Machine Gun Kelly has admitted that he regrets falling out with Slipknot‘s Corey Taylor.The feud kicked off last year after MGK hit out at Taylor at Chicago’s Riot Fest, saying onstage: “You wanna know what I’m really happy that I’m not doing?

Being 50 years old wearing a fucking weird mask on a fucking stage, talking shit.”His onstage diss came after Taylor appeared to dismissively allude to Kelly in a previous interview: “I hate all new rock for the most part.

I [hate] the artists who failed in one genre and decided to go rock and I think he knows who he is.”MGK then said he had issues with Taylor dating back to when he was working on his 2020 album ‘Tickets To My Downfall’.“Corey did a verse for a song on tickets to my downfall album, it was fucking terrible, so I didn’t use it,” he added.Taylor then responded to Kelly’s claims by sharing screenshots of a purported email exchange with blink-182‘s Travis Barker, who had executive produced ‘Tickets To My Downfall’ and appeared to be communicating with Taylor on Kelly’s behalf.Sharing the screenshots of the emails on Twitter, Taylor wrote, “I don’t like people airing private shit like a child.

So this is all I’ll say: I didn’t do the track because I don’t like when people try to ‘write’ for me.”“I said NO to THEM. So without further ado…. #receipts” he continued, before saying that this is all he’ll say on the matter.Now, MGK has said he wished he had handled the row differently, in his new documentary, Life In Pink via The Pit.“I could have handled it differently.
