MGK credits daughter Casie for saving him 'from making some career mistakes'

Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) just opened up about how fatherhood has shown him a new purpose in life.

While having a conversation with PEOPLE magazine, the 35-year-old American rapper and singer-songwriter revealed that fatherhood has redefined what family means to him after growing up with a complex relationship with his family.

For the unversed, MGK is the father of two daughters, a 16-year-old Casie from a past relationship and a 4-month-old Saga Blade, whom he welcomed with partner Megan Fox in March of this year.

Expressing his feelings, he said, “It recharges your will-to-live battery and recertifies your you-have-a-purpose-here sticker.”

The Emo Girl hitmaker, whose seventh and most ambitious album, Los Americana, is coming out on Friday, August 8, shared, "Both my daughters love [it]."

He noted, "Well, one can't use words yet, but the smiles that I get whenever I play it would indicate that there's a fondness of it.”

Despite just being a teenager, Casie is not only MGK’s “biggest supporter but a big advisor," as she has been watching her father making her name in the music industry from a very young age.

"She's actually saved me from making some career mistakes. She's been invested in this since she was a kid, because she grew up in it, so there's a passion that she has. It's a really good aid,” the Grammy-nominated musician quipped.
