Ohio's Machine Gun Kelly, Trippie Redd get emotional on "Genre: Sadboy"

• The duo has worked together before, most notably on MGK's "Candy" and "All I Know," and Redd's "Red Sky."

State of play: The rollout for "Genre: Sadboy" began this week with the release of "Lost Boys," a song soaked in depression and thoughts of suicide.

• The rest of the EP follows suit with songs that mention drug use, paranoia, failed relationships and sleep deprivation.

What they're saying: "4am I'm nodding off. Hope this wasn't fentanyl. I hide behind this camera flash. It's always my f---ing fault," MGK raps on "Beauty," which samples Frou Frou's electropop song "Let Go."

• Later, on "Who Do I Call," he raps: "Everything is gray without you. There's nothing to save if I'm here without."

Between the lines: The latter lyrics could be about MGK's highly publicized relationship with Megan Fox, who recently revealed the two are no longer engaged.

The bottom line: "Genre: Sadboy" probably isn't going to make you feel warm and fuzzy, but fans of MGK and Redd's recent emo-driven solo projects should love it.
