Austin Richard Post (born July 4, 1995), known professionally as Post Malone, is an American singer, rapper, songwriter, record producer, and actor. His music blends various genres including pop, hip-hop, trap, country, R&B, and rock.
Malone began his musical career in 2010, and earned mainstream recognition with his 2015 cloud rap debut single, "White Iverson". The song led him to sign with Republic Records, and served as lead single for his debut studio album, Stoney (2016), which spawned the Diamond-certified single "Congratulations" (featuring Quavo). His second album, Beerbongs & Bentleys (2018), debuted atop the US Billboard 200 and set numerous streaming records. It contained the US Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles "Rockstar" (featuring 21 Savage) and "Psycho" (featuring Ty Dolla Sign), and was nominated for Album of the Year at the 61st Grammy Awards. His third Hot 100 number-one single, "Sunflower", a duet with Swae Lee, was released for the accompanying soundtrack to the 2018 animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse; it became the highest-certified song in RIAA history and was the first to receive a 2× Diamond certification.
Malone's third album, Hollywood's Bleeding (2019), became his second project to both debut atop the Billboard 200 and receive Grammy Award nomination for Album of the Year. It spawned the single "Circles", which spent 61 weeks on the Hot 100. Malone's fourth and fifth albums, Twelve Carat Toothache (2022) and Austin (2023), both peaked at number two on the Billboard 200. In 2024, he topped the Billboard Hot 100 twice more with his guest appearance on Taylor Swift's "Fortnight" and his first country pop song, "I Had Some Help" (featuring Morgan Wallen). The latter served as the lead single for Malone's sixth album and country music debut, F-1 Trillion (2024), which became his third number-one album on the Billboard 200."I Had Some Help" became his biggest hit after spending 6 weeks at number one and 67 total weeks on the Hot 100.
Malone is among the best-selling music artists, with over 150 million records sold in the US alone according to the RIAA. His accolades include eleven Billboard Music Awards, five American Music Awards, six MTV Video Music Awards, and eighteen Grammy Award nominations. He holds several Billboard chart records: He is the first solo lead artist to top both the Rap Airplay and Adult Contemporary charts, while "Circles" set the record for longest climb to number one (41 weeks) on the Adult Contemporary chart by a solo artist. As of 2025, Malone is second only to Drake for artists with the most diamond-certified songs, with nine to his name.
