Machine Gun Kelly has hit out after not being included on a fake AI mock up of a “White Rapper Mount Rushmore”.
The image, which featured stone renderings of Eminem, Mac Miller, Paul Wall and Russ, went viral after it was recently posted on social media.
The real-life monument’s line-up in South Dakota features former United States presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln.
When MGK saw that he wasn’t among the four rappers in the mock up, he wrote: “Me not on the white rapper mt rushmore is blasphemy,” alongside a retweet of a video of him freestyling alongside Gillie Tha Kid and Wallo.

Although he has delved into various genres during his career, MGK started his career as a rapper on his 2012 debut ‘Lace Up’ and follow up ‘General Admission’.
Since 2020’s Travis Barker produced ‘Tickets To My Downfall‘, however, the musician has been more focused on pop-punk and rock.
Elsewhere, MGK recently joined Three 6 Mafia with Barker on drums, for a rendition of ‘Hit a Muthafucka’ at Coachella 2025 over the weekend. Many fans felt that the Memphis rap group “killed” their guest heavy set and criticised the audience at the California festival for failing to “recognise the greatness”.
MGK also recently shared a response to an article by The Onion which related to him recently having a baby with Megan Fox.
The outlet published a report jokingly stating that Fox had confirmed that “she and the new baby will co-parent Machine Gun Kelly”. It led to MGK commenting on a screenshot of the headline on Instagram, with a series of crying-laughing emojis.
Meanwhile, Eminem also recently become a grandfather after his daughter Hailie Jade welcomed a baby boy named Elliot Marshall McClintock.
His middle name Marshall pays tribute to his grandfather, whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III, while some onlookers noted that his initials could also be read as “EM&M”.
