Several of the best-selling hip-hop songs in music history have been released by Post Malone. Success has always followed when he releases Hip Hop singles, whether it is “Congratulations” starring Quavo, “rockstar” with 21 Savage, “I Fall Apart,” or his breakthrough hit “White Iverson.”
Post has recently entirely shifted away from hip hop and toward country and pop. The author of “Psycho” has faced criticism in the past for saying in a video interview with NewOnce, “If you’re looking for lyrics, if you’re looking to cry, if you’re looking to think about life, don’t listen to Hip Hop.”
This was stated prior to his explanation: “There are amazing hip-hop songs that discuss life and spit forth genuine st, but not many people talk about real st these days. I always turn to Bob Dylan music when I need to cry or just take a seat and cry.”
Even if he claimed that drinking had affected his remarks, it appears that he has gradually moved away from the genre that catapulted him to stardom.
He discussed his feelings about being referred to as a “culture vulture” and the reasons it troubled him in a recent interview with CBS. He continued by describing his passion for music and his conviction that it should only be enjoyed by others who share that love.
In addition to DaBaby and 21 Savage, Post Malone has also worked with Ty Dolla Sign, the musician formerly known as Kanye West, and other artists. Because of his immense success on the Billboard charts and other platforms, he has become a permanent fixture in Hip Hop history.
While his upcoming album, F-1 Trillion, is scheduled to be released as a country project, his most recent album, AUSTIN, is classified as pop. It’s rare for an artist to switch genres with ease, but Posty has gained enough notoriety in the music industry to set his own guidelines.
