Today, GRAMMY\u00ae-nominated recording artist\u00a0mgk<\/strong> drops his explosive new single\u00a0\u201cFIX UR FACE\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0with\u00a0Fred Durst<\/strong>. With a peak performance from the iconic\u00a0Limp Bizkit<\/strong>\u00a0frontman, the unabashedly heavy song fuses the grit and grind of \u201990s n\u00fc-metal with\u00a0mgk<\/strong>\u2019s genre-bending modern alternative sound. The exhilarating visual made its broadcast premiere on\u00a0MTV Live<\/strong>,\u00a0MTVU<\/strong>, and the Paramount Times Square billboards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen to \u201cFIX UR FACE\u201d<\/strong> HERE<\/a> and watch the music video HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Written, produced, and performed alongside longtime\u00a0mgk<\/strong>\u00a0collaborators\u00a0SlimXX<\/strong>,\u00a0BazeXX<\/strong>,\u00a0RookXX<\/strong>,\u00a0Nick Long<\/strong>, and\u00a0No Love For The Middle Child<\/strong>, \u201cFIX UR FACE\u201d cuts through with a raw, cross-generational energy that stands apart from anything out right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directed by Sam Cahill<\/strong>, the official video captures that energy in motion. Shot in black and white across Berlin, Dublin, D\u00fcsseldorf, London, Prague, Cologne, Nashville, and Los Angeles during the Lost Americana tour, it documents a string of unfiltered fan moments around the world. Packed crowds, constant motion, and no separation between artist and audience. It\u2019s loud, physical, and immediate, channeling the spirit and intensity that define mgk and Fred Durst. The visual world is further shaped by street artists Lugosis and Strato, who created the wall mural in Berlin, while Slawn Olaolu designed the character face and jackets featured in the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

mgk<\/strong> first teased \u201cFIX UR FACE\u201d<\/strong> during the European leg of the lost americana tour<\/strong>before officially performing a snippet of the single on his just-wrapped Australian run and sparking a wave of excitement. He and Durst<\/strong> have a camaraderie that stretches back more than a decade, having shared stages and bills multiple times over the years, including mgk<\/strong>\u2019s 2014 tour with Limp Bizkit<\/strong> (see highlights HERE<\/a>). The lost americana tour<\/em><\/strong> returns to the U.S. on May 15 with support from Wiz Khalifa<\/strong>. Dates, tickets, and additional information can be found HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Released last year, lost americana<\/em><\/strong> became mgk<\/strong>\u2019s third consecutive No. 1 on Billboard\u2019s Top Rock & Alternative Albums<\/strong> chart. In late November, he teamed up with Jonas Brothers<\/strong>, for a fizzy, swoon-worthy remix of his inescapable hit \u201c<\/strong>clich\u00e9<\/a>.\u201d<\/strong> An enduring cornerstone of lost americana<\/em><\/strong>, that song inspired an iconic music video<\/a> also directed by Cahill<\/strong> complete with choreography by Sean Bankhead<\/strong> (Usher, Tate McRae), as well as the candid, piano-powered rendition, \u201c<\/strong>clich\u00e9 (sad version)<\/a>.\u201d<\/strong> To kick off 2026, mgk<\/strong> released his highly anticipated single \u201c<\/strong>times of my life<\/a>,\u201d<\/strong> which has quickly become a fan favorite on tour, and followed with music videos for album highlights \u201c<\/strong>starman<\/a>\u201d<\/strong> and \u201c<\/strong>goddamn<\/a>\u201d<\/strong> incorporating footage from the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
