\n\tIn an interview with People<\/a> <\/em>published Wednesday (Aug. 6) ahead of his new album Lost Americana<\/em>, MGK opened up about why he isn\u2019t bothered by his critics. \u201cThe hate for me has become so pop culture that it\u2019s almost like that\u2019s automatically what you say to fit in,\u201d he told the publication.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThat s\u2013t doesn\u2019t even mean anything to me,\u201d he continued. \u201cI\u2019ve let it go completely to where I\u2019m like, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s a joke.\u2019 I\u2019ve realized they\u2019re the conformists \u2014 you don\u2019t even hate me for a reason that you can actually think of, because all I do is entertain, and entertainment can\u2019t be that serious.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe rapper-turned-rocker went on to note that most of the hate he gets comes from men. \u201cI think men let their insecurity rule their entirety,\u201d he mused. \u201cI think to them, they\u2019re like, \u2018He\u2019s supposed to be like this, because this is this carnal, archaic way of what men are \u2026\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018Look, we can be protectors and all these other things that we\u2019re supposed to be, and also be expressive and vulnerable and emotional, and we can dress how we want, look how we want.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe interview comes just two days before Lost Americana <\/em>is set to arrive, with MGK appearing to embrace a rootsier musical sound on the LP after previously cutting his teeth on rap music before pivoting to punk rock on albums Tickets to My Downfall <\/em>and Mainstream Sellout<\/em>. To promote the record, the Cleveland-bred musician enlisted one of Americana\u2019s biggest heroes, Bob Dylan, to narrate a trailer <\/a>that dropped in June. <\/p>\n

\n\tAt the time, it was unclear whether it was actually Dylan\u2019s voice in MGK\u2019s video \u2014 but on a recent late-night appearance, the latter confirmed that it was authentic<\/a>. \u201cTo be honest, I have no idea how he even knows who I am to this day,\u201d MGK said on The Tonight Show <\/em>on Monday (Aug. 4). \u201cSomething\u2019s going on in the stars where, like, good things keep happening \u2026 I don\u2019t know how it keeps happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMGK\u2019s experimentation with various genres over the course of his career is one of several reasons why he thinks certain people hate him without actual cause. But as he said to People<\/em>, he just doesn\u2019t care: \u201cI became so hated for, what has become apparent to me, no reason \u2026 just because I artistically express myself, through fashion, music, whatever.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe added, \u201cI choose to not stay contained into a societal box.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
