MGK Drops ‘El Pistolero’ Video and It’s a Whole Vibe
MGK is back at it again, and this time he’s got a new visual twist for his track “El Pistolero.”
Continuing the celebration of Hotel Diablo’s fifth anniversary, MGK has delivered an action-packed, punchy video for “El Pistolero” that feels straight out of a cult movie—the kind where you want to sit back, grab popcorn, and watch some serious head-spinning action.
Directed by Sam Cahill, the video showcases MGK as a nimble warrior, effortlessly obliterating enemies like it’s just another Tuesday.
In “El Pistolero,” MGK doesn’t just perform; he morphs, conquers, and thrives in competition.
Let’s not pretend it’s subtle—he’s here to prove that he’s one of music’s most versatile artists.
A little bit rap, a dash of punk, and a pinch of ‘whatever vibe strikes’ is what makes MGK, well, MGK.
He barrels through the competition with ease, giving us the kind of swagger only someone who’s ready to say, “f*ck it, let’s do nu-metal today” could bring.
The Floor 13 Edition: Not Just About the Music
This isn’t just about a video drop—we’re also talking about the Hotel Diablo: Floor 13 Edition. Check out the eAlbum here.
MGK has relaunched the exclusive merchandise for the fifth anniversary, featuring commemorative Zoetrope Vinyl and gear that’d make any fan want to say, “Take my money!”
Hotel Diablo debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 back in 2019, and it’s still making waves, with that RIAA Gold certification to back it up.
The Hotel Diablo era is like a time capsule of MGK’s evolution, and this new video is a reminder that he’s not just about playing old hits; he’s adding new layers, and doing it with style.
The anniversary release is a love letter to fans who’ve been along for the ride since day one—all wrapped in collectible vinyl goodness.
Teaming Up on “Lonely Road”
As if that wasn’t enough, MGK recently teamed up with Jelly Roll and Travis Barker for an electrifying performance of “Lonely Road” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

This collab doesn’t exactly hold back, blending country vibes with rock flair. It’s MGK in his crossover element, and the song itself has held strong, landing at No. 17 on the Hot Country Songs chart.
It’s not the kind of crossover that makes you raise an eyebrow; it just makes sense—like adding chili flakes to your pizza.
Anniversary Drops, Vinyl Spins, and All That Jazz
So what’s the takeaway? MGK’s celebration of Hotel Diablo isn’t just a look back; it’s a bold statement of where he’s at and where he’s heading.
The action-heavy “El Pistolero” video? That’s MGK flexing his artistic muscle, saying, “I can do this, and I can do more.”
The new merch and vinyl releases are just the icing on this chaotic, musical cake.
And let’s be honest, it’s not just about nostalgia; it’s about keeping the spirit of Hotel Diablo alive for all the fans who can’t get enough.
