Bad Boy Signs Cleveland's Machine Gun Kelly

"MGK is a great addition to the Bad Boy team," Bad Boy President, Harve Pierre said. "He speaks for a generation of kids who are just like him.  Fans relate immediately to his lyrics, his flow and his energetic live performances."

"We decided to partner with Bad Boy/Interscope because they understood our idea and the importance of keeping our integrity."
"They want to give us their resources to help share our vision with the rest of the world," MGK said. "This is not about mainstream success. EST 19XX represents a cultural shift, a worldwide revolution.  Lace the F*@* Up!!!!"
"The moment we started the EST 19XX movement during the recording of the Lace Up mixtape, I made a pledge to my fans to protect our brand and become the honest voice of our generation," said MGK.  "We represent the underdogs, the outcast, the uncool.  We are a true cult with a loud voice."
