Description

During an interview with ESPN SportsCenter in Canton, Ohio on July 31, 2025, mgk talked about how the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl after party inspired him to write ESPN college football's new anthem 'dont wait run fast.'

"Happy to be joined by mgk," the reporter said. "The big news here today, your song 'dont wait run fast' is ESPN college football's new anthem. Why do you think your song is a good fit?"

mgk said, "Well, probably 'cause it came from a real place of uh... The day after we performed for the Kansas City Chiefs after party at the Super Bowl, which was a lost party, I went in the studio, and I was like, 'We need one of those guitar riffs that is for... that can like, bring life to something that there is no life in anymore. I made the song kind of being like, 'We need something to pump people up.' And so I made it after a football event. So it's pretty ironic that it got chosen to be the soundtrack for a football event."

FYI: mgk also went on the Pat McAfee Show and talked about how he wrote 'dont wait run fast.'

"I made this song the day after I played the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl party," mgk said. "But they [Kansas City Chiefs ] didn't win, and so we had to still play the party. You know who doesn't go to the after parties of the team who lost? Players, girls, anybody. I was like the headliner of it. I had to go play like an hour set versus like Quavo, Shaboozey, they [Quavo and Shaboozey] went to go, they got to play like one song and dip. For the past five years, I haven't played in front of a crowd that wasn't stoked. There was about four girls, and I'm playing a bunch of songs that I realized in that moment, I was, like, 'Man, these songs are kind of like for girls. Could have really used a song with testosterone right now.' And I got back to the studio the next day, and I was like, 'We need something that we could have played in that environment.'"

In February 2025, mgk performed at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl after party.
