Machine Gun Kelly celebrates Presidents’ Day by unveiling the title and cover art for his new mixtape Black Flag. The Cleveland rapper has also released a new song and video for “Champions.” The triumphant track samples Queen’s “We Are the Champions” and contains ad-libs from his Bad Boy boss Diddy.

The mixtape features a hungrier Kells. “I felt like I nearly got dropped from my label and felt this hunger that I hadn’t had in a long time, and I just put it in words,” he told Rap-Up TV. “I felt like I wasn’t a problem in the game yet, and now I feel like, ‘God damn.’ I’m so fu*king stoked on this tape.”

The tape will also include “Peso,” a collaboration with Pusha T and Meek Mill. “It’s a joint that makes you want to get up and go to work,” MGK said of the track, which samples Aloe Blacc’s “I Need a Dollar.”
