Eventually, MGK and his father moved to Cleveland, where he attended Shaker Heights High School. He convinced a local t-shirt shop owner to become his manager, as the shop owner would double as a MC manager.

Career and Net Worth

Kelly was given his stage name Machine Gun Kelly by his fans, due to his rapid fire delivery. His very first mix-tape was titled ‘Stamp of Approval’, and helped to make a dent in the industry and get his name out.

Even whilst producing mix-tapes and gaining a fan base, MGK was still struggling through hard times. He was on the verge of getting evicted, and had to work at Chipotle just to pay his bills.

A few years later, the Lace Up Mix-tape was released, throughout which MGK showed a lot of love for Cleveland. For that fact, he quickly gained popularity in his city.
