    One of the best Albums I have heart every song is catchy. Some of the songs are very emotional but every single song brings you in a good mood. I have listen to this album literally 15 times and it doesn't bore me at all. Must hear for me

    Punk pop is back and it's fun. MGK switches up his style again and unleashes a fantastic album with Travis Barker as the exec producer. Some great collabs on here with blackbear and halsey. Enjoy this one

    The lyrics are predictably bland. The delivery is stiff. The sound is tired. The aesthetic is obnoxious. The video/movie complement was laughable and half assed. Blink-1-82 did not need this sequel. I hoped tte hype would amount to something. Unfortunately it results in a tedious disappointment.

    An album that sounds like an entire coection of bad blink 182 b sides, accompany that with terrible vocals, cliche lyrics and forgettae songs and you have tickets to my downfall, at least Travis Barkers drumming was excellent.
    This certainly isn't a good album much less a good pop punk album

    For a rappers debut pop-punk album that takes you back to early 00’s this record **** rocks, I really hope he does more of this genre, dude is very versatile and has a great scream voice of it.

    O álbum é produzido por um estilo de rock que já foi saturado pelas estrelas da disney no passado, e as letras, embora trabalhem com drogas, tristezas, responsabilidades, ainda conseguem ser infantis pela maneira com as quais são expressadas, nessa atmosfera juvenil. De qualquer forma, não é a pior coisa de se ouvir, com certeza um pré-adolescente se rebelando deve adorar

    This is actually a really good album. Certainly the best I’ve heard from him.

    Some songs are catchy enough, but the majority are lame ripoffs of older pop punk bands. Its more like a 4/10 but I gave it 0 to balance out all these 10/10 reviews it looks like were spammed by the same person

    It’s a pretty strong outing for such a marked departure from his usual hip hop, with grungy rhythm guitars playing pop punk melodies. MGK’s lyrics are filled with angst and lust. Travis Barker provides most of the production and drumming. MGK actually plays some guitar on the album. The best tracks are Bloody Valentine, Body Bag, Concert For Aliens, Forget Me Too, and My Ex’s Best Friend.It’s a pretty strong outing for such a marked departure from his usual hip hop, with grungy rhythm guitars playing pop punk melodies.

    Such a fun album. It’s not perfect but it’s pop punk that reminds you of some Blink-182 and Sum41 oldies. Definitely recommend and here for pop punk to make a comeback

    I personally like the style and context of this PINK album from a big boy a lot. However, I think his vocal does not really vary but is more like directly speaking the lyrics out.

    I have been a pop-punk simp since I was in diapers. The last enjoyable emo/pop-punk album I ever enjoyed was Brand New Eyes by Paramore. 2020 was the year Travis Barker decided to spoil every single emo/pop-punk simp known to man. He gave Machine Gun Kelly every piece of pop-punk talent he could give him. Without a doubt, Tickets To My Downfall is the best pop-punk album the entire 2020'sI have been a pop-punk simp since I was in diapers.

    Um álbum maravilhoso, misturando muito bem o pop punk e hip hop. Trouxe a era emo a tona com muito estilo, é evidente que esse gênero fez parte da vida dele.

    MGK does a solid job at not only bouncing back from mass criticism from previous years, but also creating a nostalgia wave of Punk Rock music, featuring great production and song writing. Travis Barker is a great help on this album, helping to polish it. Colson Baker has a great future following this.

    FAV TRACK: concert for aliens
    LEAST FAV TRACK: forget me too

    The album was very good but there were small parts I didn’t like and that was some of the lyrics were kinda cliche but that was it. The album gives me 2001-2004 blink-182 vibes and I enjoyed that a lot

    This album is a blast from the past, future, and present. And Lonely is a song for anyone who's lost a loved one. Its a gem. Go, Kells!

    He always had these notes of punk but him finally leaning into it and giving a lot of the stories we've heard previously being played out in a new format. It is beautiful

    Awesome. This album contains one of the best songs from his career "Play This When I'm Gone". It's cohesive from beginning to end, he promised a pop punk album and he delivered it. My only problem is the features, trippie redd collab its the only one that i cannot stand.

    On Tickets To My Downfall he tries a new gambit that works surprisingly well, switching to late-Nineties/early-2000s pop punk, with Blink 182’s Travis Barker producing and playing drums. Trashily lachrymose and full of easily digestible angst.

    he annoying melodrama that made his rap material so exhausting is what gives his new music some real power. For the first time ever, the instrumentation suits Baker’s natural whine.

    Thematically, Tickets to My Downfall is hardly a departure from MGK’s past work, but the new surroundings lightens his music up considerably even amidst the hormones and histrionics. With Travis Barker on his side, he might win over skeptics accusing him of trend-hopping, but the best part of Downfall is that he doesn’t take the whole endeavor too seriously.
