The results are in and the winner is the black shirt with "Live Like It's Your Dyin' Day" on it. The voting totals on his Facebook page show a blowout, as that shirt won over the white tic-tac-toe design, 1,323 to 169.

The release date for Machine Gun Kelly's debut album, "Lace Up," has been announced. The rapper revealed on USTREAM that the album will be out on October 9. It is available for pre-order on his website.

Back in May, Machine Gun Kelly asked fans to submit "Lace Up" tattoo pictures for his album cover. It'll come as no surprise that he said on USTREAM that his cover will be a mosaic of these images.

Machine Gun Kelly revealed some of the tracks that will be featured on his "Lace Up" album this evening, during his scheduled USTREAM appearance.

The song that features DMX is called "Demons," which he describes as "dark... very, very MGK when I was in a very dark place." In addition, he says that "End of the Road" and "Stereo," two previously released songs, made the cut.

On USTREAM this evening, Machine Gun Kelly announced that a surprise mixtape would be released on Monday. He stressed that the mixtape was not an MGK mixtape, but an EST mixtape for the fans, released in conjunction with DJ Xplosive and DJ E-V.

He mentioned that the mixtape will feature new music from both MGK and Dubo. Specifically he mentioned songs called "Her Song" and "Halo" and a song by Dubo titled "Paid." In addition, he said that the mixtape will feature songs that you may have heard, but have never been officially released.

On USTREAM this evening, Machine Gun Kelly announced a 6 date U.S. college tour (a list of dates was previously posted by MGK collaborator Slim Gudz), the Disorderly Conduct Tour, which will be followed by the Raging Abroad Tour, which will take the rapper to Europe from mid-September through early-October.

We're getting closer, MGK fans. Yesterday, Machine Gun Kelly said that he would reveal the "Lace Up" album release date this evening at 9 PM.

Due to uncertainty over if he'll be home in time, he has moved it back a day. He plans to appear on USTREAM at 9 PM ET to announce the date.

Following DJ Clue's mixtape premiere of the song on Friday, Machine Gun Kelly has released the song for free download via Facebook, saying that this is the "official" version.
