New Motley Crue track to feature Machine Gun Kelly



Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx has confirmed that the band will be joined by rapper Machine Gun Kelly on a new track from the upcoming film version of their 2001 memoir, “The Dirt: Confessions Of The World’s Most Notorious Rock Band.”

“New song with MGK is coming really soon," replied Sixx while answering fan questions during a recent Q&A session on Twitter.

Kelly will play drummer Tommy Lee in the biopic, which will premiere March 22 on Netflix; directed by Jeff Tremaine, the film also features Daniel Webber as singer Vince Neil, Douglas Booth as bassist Nikki Sixx, and Iwan Rheon as guitarist Mick Mars.

Motley Crue teamed up with producer Bob Rock last fall to record a series of four new songs for inclusion on the film’s companion soundtrack album.

“Everybody is playing like mad and the songs crush,” shared Sixx online at the time, adding, “You can trust us, these are ball-busters. Everybody can relax. We're soon gonna smack you upside the head with some killer new tracks. Bob Rock is producing. It's our movie. We know what we're doing."

The sessions mark the first reunion by the members since the band wrapped up an 18-month farewell tour in Los Angeles on December 31, 2015.

The group’s 1989 classic, “Kickstart My Heart”, was recently featured in a Super Bowl ad for Planters peanuts.
