CLEVELAND, Ohio – After giving fans a rapid-fire rhyme display on “Newsroom 2,” Machine Gun Kelly is softening things up a bit.
Kellz posted a surprise cover Billie Eilish’s song “Ocean Eyes.” If you don’t know who Eilish is, that basically means you’re not cool.

The electropop star topped the Billboard charts with her massive debut studio album “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” back in March and was all the rage at this year’s Coachella.

“Ocean Eyes” is from Eilish’s 2017 release “don’t smile at me.” MGK’s version is a bit more rock-driven but still finds the emcee emo crooning his heart out.

Machine Gun Kelly’s new album “Hotel Diablo” is out next month.
