I'm happy it comes out in the music,

you know, because I'm having the time of my life.

That's why I say it's a drug.

From the moment his voice hit the airwaves,

Post Malone became a force in music that no one saw coming.

It's not for the people who hate you.

It's for the people who love you and for yourself.

Post has transformed into a multi-platinum artist,

each song telling its own story of heartbreak,

resilience, and defiance.

He's an artist whose sound is as diverse

as his influences, blending hip-hop, rock, country,

and pop into something entirely his own.

But behind the chart-topping hits, viral success,

and tattooed persona lies a story of relentless

ambition, raw vulnerability, and the pursuit of something deeper.

I cannot wait to go and write more songs and get the band out and just

keep creating.

You know, I'm so excited.

This is the story of Austin Richard Post,

of Post Malone.

A story of breaking boundaries, chasing dreams, and

navigating a world that doesn't always understand him.

I just hope, you know, people enjoy the

music and people relate to the music and

just keep spreading love and I guess that's the whole thing that I want.

Austin Richard Post, better known as Post Malone,

was born on July 4, 1995, in Syracuse, New York.

Raised by his father, Richard Post, and his

stepmother, Jodi, Post was exposed to a wide variety of music early on.

His father, a former DJ, played everything from

hip-hop to country to rock, sparking Post's

eclectic taste in future genre-blending sound.

At the age of nine, Post's life took

a turn when his family relocated to Grapevine,

Texas, after his father took a job managing

concessions for the Dallas Cowboys.

It was here that Post's passion for music truly took root.

Inspired by the video game Guitar Hero, he

picked up a guitar, dreaming of performing on stage.

In 2010, he auditioned for the American band

Crown the Empire, but fate took a different

path when his guitar strings broke mid-audition.

Though his early music interests gravitated toward heavy

metal, Post Malone's love for alternative rock and hip-hop soon emerged.

He even made an appearance at Emo Night

in Los Angeles in 2017, spinning tracks by

his favorite alt-rock band, My Chemical Romance.

His journey into professional music began with a

heavy metal band before evolving into softer rock and eventually, hip-hop.

He began experimenting, laying the groundwork for the

genre-bending artist he would become.

At just 14, Austin Richard Post decided on

a name that would soon become iconic...

Post Malone.

While rumors swirled that the Malone part referenced

the basketball player Carl Malone, Post later revealed

that he simply used his last name, Post,

and a random rap name generator to come up with Malone.

By the time he was 16, Post had

already created his first mixtape, Young and After Them Riches.

Using the basic audio editor software, Audacity,

he shared the tracks with his classmates at Grapevine

High School, and it wasn't long before they

voted him most likely to become famous.

During his teenage years, Post worked at a

chicken express and dabbled in music for fun.

At 17, he released a synth-pop parody

track called Why Don't You Love Me, under

the alias, Leon DiCino, intended for a school project.

Little did he know, this playful experiment would resurface years later.

Soon after high school, he enrolled in Tarrant

County College, but his heart wasn't in it, and he eventually dropped out.

Post then took a leap of faith, moving to Los Angeles.

In Los Angeles, Post joined forces with a

group of artists and producers to form a collective called Blackard.

They moved into a house in the San

Fernando Valley, where they recorded music together.

During this time, Post met producers F.K

.I. First, Sauce Lord Rich, and Rex Kudo,

key collaborators who would help shape his sound.

It was in this house that Post recorded

White Iverson, a song he wrote in just two days.

The track quickly blew up after releasing in February 2015.

♪ I won ♪

♪ Saucin’, saucin’, I’m saucin’ on you ♪

♪ I’m swaggin’, I’m swaggin’, I’m swaggin’ on ♪

Within a month, the song had racked up over a million views.

Post soon caught the attention of rappers Mac

Miller and Wiz Khalifa, and major labels came calling.

Well, what do you think it was? Which slide?

I think it just came out at the right time with the right, um, you know,

little spark and it just caught fire and, you know, it just...

And the rest is history.

The rest is history.

In August 2015, Post signed with Republic Records

and began working with high-profile artists like

50 Cent, Young Thug, and Kanye West.

A chance encounter with West at Kylie Jenner's

18th birthday party led to Post collaborating on

Kanye's track Fade for his album, The Life of Pablo.

Around the same time, Post struck up a

friendship with Justin Bieber, who invited him to

open for his Purpose World Tour.

In April 2016, Post Malone dropped his single

Go Flex on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 show,

keeping the momentum of his rising career going strong.

The following month, he released his first mixtape

named August 26th, a nod to the anticipated release of his debut album.

By June, he made his national TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Here with the song, Goldflex, Post Malone!

♪ My squad, and I’m smokin’ up a check ♪

♪ Ay, man, I just wanna go flex ♪

♪ Gold on my teeth and on my neck ♪

Around the same time, although he was considered

for XXL's 2016 freshman class, rumors began to

circulate that Post was shifting away from hip

hop toward rock, pop, or country.

However, he quickly shut down those claims, reaffirming

that his upcoming album was firmly rooted in hip-hop.

After a few delays, his debut album Stoney

was finally released in December 2016.

While Post himself later called the album, Mediocre,

it featured the hit singles Congratulations with Quavo

and Deja Vu with Justin Bieber.

By October 2017, Stoney had been certified double

platinum, thrusting Post into the spotlight and laying

his future out before him.

In early 2017, Post Malone announced the title

of his next project, Beerbongs and Bentleys.

Initially set for a December release, however, the

album was delayed until 2018.

In September of that year, he dropped its

first single, Rockstar, featuring 21 Savage.

♪ I've been fuckin' hoes and poppin' pillies, man ♪

♪ I feel just like a rockstar ♪

♪ All my brothers got that gas ♪

♪ And they always be smokin' like a rockstar ♪

The song quickly climbed to the top of

the Billboard Hot 100, staying at number one for eight weeks.

Rolling Stone declared Post one of the most

popular musicians in the country.

♪ I don't want to die too young ♪

♪ Too young, too young ♪

♪ Probably think that you are better now, better now ♪

♪ You only say that cause I'm not around, not around ♪

♪ You know I never meant to let you down, let you down ♪

♪ Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything ♪

In early 2018, Post teased a new collaboration

with Ty Dolla $ign titled Psycho, which was

officially released in February and debuted at number

two on the Billboard Hot 100.

A few months later, it reached number one,

marking Post's second chart-topping hit.

Around the same time, Post announced that Beerbongs

and Bentleys would be released on April 27,

2018, and previewed the song Stay, during a

Bud Light dive bar show in Nashville.

When the album dropped, it shattered Spotify's first-day

streaming record, with 78.7 million streams globally.

Debuting at number one on the Billboard 200,

it sold 461,000 album-equivalent units in

its first week and was certified platinum within four days.

The album produced several hits, including three top-ten tracks

and six that reached the top 20.

Post Malone has often faced accusations of being

a culture vulture, with critics from various publications

and social media accusing him of appropriating African -American culture.

In October 2017, California rapper Lil B tweeted,

Post Malone is slowly turning into a white dude.

LOL he's pushing it.

Give it a few years, he gon' be full country, and hate blacks LOL.

Post responded to the criticism in an interview,

expressing frustration that his white skin was being used against him.

By January 2018, he went on a rant

while intoxicated, directly addressing those who labeled him

a culture vulture.

In a later interview with GQ, he acknowledged

the complexities of being a white rapper, explaining

that it was a struggle.

In another controversy, during a November 2017 interview

with Polish media outlet Nuance, Post Malone criticized

modern hip-hop, saying it lacked depth and real meaning.

He added, If you're looking to think about life, don't listen to hip-hop.

His remarks sparked backlash from other artists, including

Lil B and Vince Staples, who publicly denounced his views.

Post later addressed the comments in a Twitter

video, clarifying that it had been a beer-tasting

interview and insisting that he loves hip-hop.

It's funny because who the f*** am I to tell you don't listen to this and

whenever you want to feel something, don't listen to this.

Or who am I to tell you that

you should feel a certain way when listening to something.

Nuance refuted his claim, stating that he barely

In a follow-up statement, Post explained that

his comments were about personal reflection, noting that

when he's feeling emotional, he listens to Bob Dylan.

What I was saying was that when I want to sit down and cry, listen to

Bob Dylan and his guitar, just like everyone

else, no matter how hard you are, no

matter where you're from, you're gonna have a

time where you sit back and reflect on your life and you listen to what you

want to listen to.

For me, that's Bob Dylan.

Yet despite the controversy, Post's career continued to accelerate.

In May 2018, he revealed plans to start

his own record label and film production company.

He also won Top Rap Song at the

Billboard Music Awards for Rockstar and announced the

creation of Posty Fest, a festival in his

hometown of Dallas, featuring a blockbuster lineup, including Travis Scott.

In August, Post broke Michael Jackson's 34-year

record for most weeks on Billboard's Top R

&B Hip-Hop Albums chart, with Stoney spending

77 weeks on the chart compared to Jackson's Thriller.

Later that year, Post previewed his track Sunflower,

a collaboration with Sway Lee for the Spider-Man

Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack.

The song received an insanely popular reception and

made history by becoming the first-ever R .I.A.A. double diamond single.

♪ Oh, you'll be left in the dust ♪

♪ Unless I start fire ♪

♪ You're the sunflower ♪

♪ You’re the sunflower ♪

By November 2018, Post confirmed he was working

on his third album, recording it in his Utah home.

His success continued into 2019, when Beerbongs and

Bentleys received four Grammy nominations, including Album of

the Year and Record of the Year.

In mid-2019, Post released Goodbyes, featuring Young

Thug, and announced The Runaway Tour with Sway Lee.

He also teased the track Circles, which premiered

at his Bud Light dive bar concert and

was officially released at the end of August.

♪ Run away, but we’re running in circles ♪

♪ Run away, run away ♪

♪ Maybe you don’t understand what I’m going through ♪

Post then revealed his third album, Hollywood's Bleeding,

would be released on September 6, 2019.

The album debuted at number one on the

Billboard 200, selling 489,000 units in its first week.

Hollywood's Bleeding was later nominated for Album of

the Year at the 63rd Grammy Awards, further

cementing Post Malone's place as a major force in music.

On March 12, 2020, Post Malone performed at

Denver's Pepsi Center in front of a sold

out crowd of 20,000 people, one of

the last large-scale indoor gatherings in the

U.S. before the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns began.

Despite growing concerns about the virus, the concert

went on, drawing criticism for not being canceled.

Shortly afterward, Live Nation postponed the remainder of

his U.S. tour dates for March 2020.

In the same month, a video surfaced showing

Post Malone stumbling and acting unusually during a

performance of his song, I Fall Apart, sparking

concern among fans about his health.

♪ I fall apart, down to my care ♪

♪ Oh, I didn’t know it before ♪

♪ Surprised when you- ♪

Speculation grew over whether something was wrong, but

Malone quickly reassured everyone, stating, I'm not on

drugs, and I feel the best I've ever felt in my life.

His manager Dre London echoed this, explaining that

Malone's behavior was simply part of his performance.

Malone's father, Richard Post, also addressed the situation,

expressing gratitude for the concern while assuring fans

that their support and kindness were deeply appreciated.

In the midst of the pandemic, on April

24, 2020, Post announced during a livestream that

he was working on a new album.

Later that month, he performed a livestream set

of Nirvana covers from his home, with Travis

Barker on drums, raising over $5 million for

the World Health Organization's COVID-19 relief efforts.

The performance was well-received, earning praise from

Nirvana's surviving members, Chris Novoselic and Dave Grohl,

as well as Kurt Cobain's widow, Kourtney Love.

In June 2020, Post was featured on Tyler

Yowie's single Tommy Lee, followed by a remix

in July that included Tommy Lee himself on drums.

Post Malone continued collaborating with other artists, including

a feature on DJ Khaled's song I Did

It in 2021, alongside DaBaby, Megan Thee Stallion,

and Lil Baby.

That November, he teamed up with The Weeknd

for the track One Right Now, the lead single for his upcoming fourth album.

♪ I don't want to know who you are right now ♪

♪ I got one comin’ over and one right now ♪

In early 2022, during an interview with Billboard,

Post revealed that the album would be titled

12 Carat Toothache and set for release on June 3, 2022.

The second single, Cooped Up, featuring Roddy Ricch,

dropped in May 2022, followed by a live

performance on Saturday Night Live, where Malone also

performed Love Hate Letter to Alcohol with Fleet Foxes.

In May 2022, Post Malone shared the news

that he and his girlfriend were expecting their first child.

A month later, during an interview on The

Howard Stern Show, he revealed that the couple

had gotten engaged and had already welcomed their daughter.

While they have kept her name private, Malone

marked the occasion by tattooing her initials, DDP,

on his forehead.

In August 2022, his documentary film Runaway premiered

on Amazon Prime Video, offering behind-the-scenes

glimpses of his 2019 Runaway tour.

My name is Austin Richard Post.

Music's what I love to do.

There's often a moment that defines an artist.

On this runaway tour, Post is having that moment.

In April 2023, Post Malone revealed he was working on

a new album, kicking off the excitement with

the release of Chemical on April 14, the

lead single for his upcoming fifth studio album.

♪ Seven Nation Army, fightin’ at the bar with you ♪

♪ Tell you that I’m sorry, tell me what I gotta do ♪

♪ ‘Cause I can’t let go, it’s chemical ♪

Just a week later, on April 21, he

dropped The Diamond Collection, a compilation celebrating his

eight R.I.A.A. Diamond-certified singles,

which also included the new track Chemical.

The record's eight tracks are Post's most well

known, White Iverson, Congratulations featuring Quavo, and I

Fall Apart, from Stoney, 2016, Rockstar featuring 21

Savage, Psycho featuring Ty Dolla $ign, and Better

Now, from Beerbongs and Bentleys, 2018, Sunflower with

Sway Lee, from Spider-Man, Into the Spider-Verse,

2018, Circles from Hollywood's Bleeding, 2019, and

Chemical from Austin, 2023.

That same day, Post featured alongside The Kid

LAROI on What You Say, a track from

Youngboy Never Broke Again's sixth album, Don't Try This at Home.

On May 16, 2023, Malone officially announced his

fifth studio album, Austin, set for release on

July 28, 2023, dropping three more singles following the announcement.

I feel like a lot of people look

outwards for inspiration, especially, you know, in COVID and everything.

Everybody's had a lot of times themselves, and

I've kind of realized, like, you gotta look

inwards for inspiration sometimes.

I think for this record, it's a life of its own, you know, and it has

feelings and it has emotion.

It's super raw, and it serves its purpose as an expression of who I am.

Additionally, on July 17, 2023, Malone collaborated with

Noah Cahan on a re-release of Cahan's

single Dial Drunk, featuring new vocals from Malone.

His song climbed the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No.

25.

To top off his 2023, Post Malone received

the Hal David Starlight Award, an honor recognizing

talented young songwriters whose original songs have made

a substantial impact on the music industry.

Thank you so very much,

ladies and gentlemen, and thank you, Lewis Bell.

Lewis Bell, by the way, is the coolest

mofc on the whole entire world.

And I just hope that, you know, over

these years that we've worked together and over

everything that we've done, I've made you proud because

this is the first person who really gave

me a chance and gave me the opportunity

of working together, and Louis Bell, you are

the smartest person I know, and I appreciate

your input and everything that you've done for

me, and offering your heart to me and

offering the opportunity to me, and thank you for offering this to me.

Oh, thanks, guys.

A little bit of beer.

Um, sit down with the guitar, like, just

around a little bit, and then, um, turn

the reverb on in my headphones, and then

listen, and then just try and think of

a melody that makes sense, and then the words come after.

Yes, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am. So I guess, I don't know, it's beer, a little bit of shrooms, um, and my

baby, and just make me want to kick ass and keep pushing myself to be the

best artist that I can.

You get into the studio, and you never know what you want to make, or you

never know what you want to do, and

it just comes out, and however you're feeling

at the moment, and then one day, whenever

I kick the bucket, uh, it'll all be a culmination of just, you look at the

timeline of how I'm feeling at the time,

and, and I just hope, you know, people

enjoy the music, and people relate to the

music, and just, uh, keep spreading love, and

I guess that's the whole thing that I want.

It's absolutely amazing.

Um, I was speaking to this gentleman here,

and I said, like, sitting down at 12

years old on my bed, writing songs, you know, and, um, this is just so cool

to be, um, in the same breath, and isn't in the same idea as so many

legendary people and artists.

It's so cool.

I'm just happy and honored that people are

listening, and, um, it makes me the proudest guy ever, so I appreciate it.

I gotta put a baby through college, so

I gotta, you know, keep going, but yes, ma'am, and, uh, beer, my baby, and,

um, I don't know, my fans, so.

The following year brought a significant shift in

Post Malone's style and approach to music,

as he embarked on a transformative journey that redefined

his sound and artistic vision.

Post Malone ventured into new territory by collaborating

with different types of artists and incorporating country

influences into his music.

But first, on February 11, 2024, Post Malone

delivered a memorable performance of America the Beautiful

at Super Bowl LIV.

Just a few days earlier, on February 5,

it was revealed that he would be featured

on Fortnite, the opening track of Taylor Swift's

highly anticipated 11th studio album, The Tortured Poet's Department.

♪ And for a fortnight there ♪

♪ We were forever ♪

♪ Run into you sometimes ♪

♪ Ask about the weather ♪

After showing his support for the collaboration on

social media, the album was released on April

19, 2024, with Fortnite chosen as the lead single.

The song quickly made history, breaking Spotify's single

day streaming record, surpassing the previous high, set

by Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You.

At the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Post

Malone and Taylor Swift took home the award

for best collaboration, for the music video to

their Billboard Hot 100 topping duet.

In June 2022, during an interview on The

Howard Stern Show, Post Malone shared his thoughts

on the idea of recording a country album.

When Howard Stern asked about his interest in

country music, Post replied, Honestly, there's nothing stopping

me from just setting up a camera in

my Utah studio and recording a country album to share on YouTube.

I'm allowed to do that.

I'm a human being.

By 2023, Post had taken his first steps

into country music, collaborating on a re-recording

of Joe Diffie's Pickup Man.

The track marked his debut on the Hot

Country Songs chart, landing at number 34.

In March 2024, Post was featured on Beyonce's

track, Levi's Jeans, from her 8th studio album,

Cowboy Carter.

The song later peaked at number 5 on the Hot Country Songs chart.

By May 10, he was back with a new single, I Had Some Help, featuring Morgan

Wallen.

♪ I had some help ♪

♪ It ain’t like I can make this kind of mess all by myself ♪

♪ Don't act like you ain’t help me pull that bottle off the shelf ♪

The song made an impressive debut, clearing country

radio's panel in its first week, a feat

only accomplished by Garth Brooks in 1997, and

setting a new Spotify single-day country streaming

record, with nearly 14 million streams.

It also topped various global streaming charts and

debuted at number 18 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart.

Continuing his streak, on June 13, 2024, Malone

announced Pour Me a Drink, a collaboration with

Blake Shelton, which dropped on June 21.

Then, on June 18, Malone revealed the release

date for his sixth studio album, F1 Trillion,

which came out on August 16, 2024.

A few weeks prior, on July 26, he

released the album's third single, Guy For That,

featuring Luke Combs, solidifying his ongoing success and

versatility across musical genres.

His daughter became a source of inspiration for

his song Yours on the album, reflecting his

emotions as he imagines her growing up and getting married one day.

You're already envisioning your daughter getting married.

I think about it a lot.

♪ And she might be wearin’ white ♪

♪ But her first dress, it was pink ♪

In the United States, F1 Trillion debuted at No.

1 on the Billboard 200, with 250,000

album-equivalent units, including 80,000 pure album sales.

With the release of its deluxe edition, the

album's tracks garnered a total of 212.86

million on-demand streams in the first week alone.

This success marked Malone's third album to reach

the top spot on the Billboard 200 and his sixth to enter the top ten.

Across the Atlantic, F1 Trillion also claimed the

top position on the UK albums chart, making

it Malone's third album to debut at No.

1 in the UK.

I've always wanted to make a record like

this, but for the longest time it seemed

so inaccessible because I don't know how the hell it works.

It was just like so cool and I'm just mind blown.

It's a playground.

It's amazing.

It's really nice meeting people in Nashville that made me feel so welcome.

The reviews for F1 Trillion highlighted Malone's successful

transition into country music, with critics praising his

creativity, songwriting, and genuine appeal in the genre.

Many reviewers, including those from Clash, AllMusic, and

Rolling Stone, commended Malone's stripped-down tracks and solo moments.

Although some, like The Guardian and The Observer,

felt the album could benefit from more risks

and a rarer, less polished sound.

While The Independent noted the album's appeal for

casual country fans, it suggested that Malone's distinctive

style occasionally gets diluted.

Overall, F1 Trillion was seen as an enjoyable,

accessible entry into country music, with room for

Malone to dive deeper into the genre's roots.

From viral sensation to record-breaking superstar, Post

Malone's journey has been anything but ordinary.

He's packed out arenas worldwide and launched the

massively successful PostyFest in 2018 and 2019.

With his unmistakable voice and fearless genre blending,

he's not just created hits.

He's shaped a generation's soundtrack, breaking boundaries and

defying expectations at every turn.

But as his career has evolved, so has his sound.

Recently, he's stepped into new territory, embracing his

love for country music.

A genre that first inspired him as a young artist,

and now offers a new canvas for his creativity.

With tracks that capture raw emotion and storytelling,

he's redefined what it means to be an artist in a world that loves to put

people in boxes.

Whether he's topping charts or surprising fans with

yet another musical twist, Post Malone remains a force that never settles.

Never stops,

and always finds a way to stay true to his heart.

From his groundbreaking quintuple platinum 2016 debut, Stoney,

to the charismatic new direction of F1 Trillion.

As he continues to push the boundaries of

his artistry, one thing is clear, Post Malone's

momentum shows no signs of slowing down.
