Post Malone is an American singer, rapper, songwriter, and record producer best known for blending genres such as hip hop, pop, rock, and country into a unique and commercially successful style.
Austin Richard Post, professionally known as Post Malone, was born on July 4, 1995, in Syracuse, New York. He developed a passion for music at an early age, influenced by his father, Rich Post, who was a former disc jockey. His father introduced him to a broad range of musical genres, including rock, hip hop, and country, which later shaped Malone’s genre-defying sound.
While attending Grapevine High School in Texas, Post Malone experimented with different types of music. He was briefly in a heavy metal band before turning his attention to softer rock and hip hop. He began learning music production using FL Studio and released his first self-produced extended play at the age of 16. The project received positive feedback from his local peers, giving him early exposure and encouragement.
Post briefly enrolled at Tarrant County College but left before completing his studies. Determined to pursue a music career, he moved to Los Angeles with his friend, Jason Probst, a professional game streamer, to focus on his musical ambitions.
Post Malone gained national attention with the release of his debut single "White Iverson" in 2015, which quickly went viral. The success of the track led to a recording contract with Republic Records. In 2016, he released his debut studio album, Stoney, which achieved double platinum status. The album debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 and sold 58,000 units in its first week. The standout track “Congratulations,” featuring Quavo, peaked at number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, further solidifying his mainstream appeal.
His follow-up album, Beerbongs & Bentleys, released in 2018, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and included chart-topping singles such as “Rockstar,” featuring 21 Savage. The track spent eight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned Post Malone multiple award nominations and wins. His ability to fuse musical influences into chart-friendly hits made him one of the most versatile artists of his generation.
