Post Malone: Blending Genres and Breaking Records
Post Malone is an American singer, rapper, songwriter, and producer known for his genre-blending style, catchy hooks, and emotional lyrics. With a unique sound that fuses hip-hop, pop, rock, and country influences, Post Malone has quickly risen to become one of the most successful and recognizable artists of his generation.
Early Life and Musical Beginnings
Born Austin Richard Post on July 4, 1995, in Syracuse, New York, he moved to Grapevine, Texas, with his father, Rich Post, and stepmother, Jodie, when he was nine years old. Post’s father worked as a disc jockey in his youth, exposing him to a wide variety of musical genres, from rock to hip-hop. Inspired by bands like Metallica and artists like Bob Dylan and 50 Cent, Post began playing guitar and experimenting with music during his teenage years.
At 16, he created his first mixtape, Young and After Them Riches, and later adopted the stage name “Post Malone” — reportedly generated from a rap name generator paired with his real surname. After high school, Post moved to Los Angeles to seriously pursue a music career.
Breakthrough and Rise to Fame
Post Malone’s big break came in 2015 with the release of “White Iverson,” a melodic, laid-back track referencing basketball legend Allen Iverson. The song went viral on SoundCloud and YouTube, catching the attention of major labels and earning Post a record deal with Republic Records.
In 2016, he released his debut album, Stoney, featuring hits like “Congratulations” (featuring Quavo) and “Go Flex.” The album showcased his ability to effortlessly merge rap with melodic vocals, quickly gaining him a loyal fan base.
Chart-Topping Success and Greatest Hits
Post Malone’s second album, Beerbongs & Bentleys (2018), catapulted him to superstardom. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and included massive hits like “Rockstar” (featuring 21 Savage), “Psycho” (featuring Ty Dolla $ign), and “Better Now.” The album shattered streaming records and cemented his place in the pop and hip-hop worlds.
His third album, Hollywood’s Bleeding (2019), continued his chart-topping success. Featuring collaborations with artists like Ozzy Osbourne, Travis Scott, and Halsey, it included the hit singles “Circles,” “Wow.,” and “Goodbyes.” “Circles” became one of his biggest tracks, holding the number-one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for weeks.
In 2022, Post released Twelve Carat Toothache, which showcased a more introspective and vulnerable side of the artist. It included singles like “One Right Now” with The Weeknd and “Cooped Up” featuring Roddy Ricch.
