On February 24th, 2022, Machine Gun Kelly played two snippets of two unreleased songs from his upcoming album Mainstream Sellout, on The Late Late Show.

The second of the two snippets was this song, called “Maybe” which has been released later on March 16, 2022 after an announcement on Colson’s twitter profile.

MGK and Oli first performed the song together at Emo Nite LA on March 4, 2022. This song marks Machine Gun Kelly’s first collaboration with Bring Me The Horizon’s frontman Oli Sykes.

Oli Sykes has always shown respect for Machine Gun Kelly’s pop-punk work, at the time of the release of Tickets To My Downfall.

I get excited when I see Machine Gun Kelly doing a pop-punk album. That’s going to bring people into our world.

The first song between MGK and BMTH debuted on BBC radio 1, shortly after, MGK and Oli gave a quick interview about the new single: “While we were having the debate if I should do the same thing and get my eyelids tattooed, we were just plans he was like pleasure songs on the new record. And actually, we had tried to collaborate on a different song as well. I love Oli so much for just being honest. We both were like I really liked this song and he really stuck to it like now like this isn’t this just isn’t the one for us. And we ended up landing on maybe which is the song that we currently have. I really wish that we just sent you guys the stems of the song so you can just mute, certain parts and hear like all, there’s really intricate parts that that Oli and bring me as a band like did on the song vocally, it’s almost like you’d have to mute the instrumental that here.” – Machine Gun Kelly said

While Bring Me The Horizon’s frontman Oliver Sykes said: “We obviously like relay as well on the massive scale like you started off with like, a death metal band, but we will never know that now. We’ve never been metal enough in our community. We’ve never been rock enough. So we’ve gone through this whole same thing so we completely get it and vibe. To me, it’s like gatekeeping is just quite affordable. With everything that goes on in the world. I like how some people’s biggest gripe is that they think someone shouldn’t be in a certain scene when they are. It’s just a mad thing for people to get upset about but it’s fun to poke fun at that. I mean, you’ve definitely done it with like Song by heavy metal and stuff like that. Just like people think it is offensive to us to say we’re not a metal gun, but it’s like, do you think at this point is what what we want to do? Do you think we really care about what song genre or sub genre we’re in anymore? It’s like, we don’t care.”
