For Texas-raised Post Malone, real name Austin Richard Post, this shift into country has felt like a long time coming. Back in 2015, just as his polarising viral trap hit White Iverson was taking hold, he was asked about his role in the rap ecosystem. “The old country singers, they were badass, they were the American badass people,” he replied, ignoring the specifics of the question. “I’m an American badass. At 40 years old, I’m gonna be a country singer.” At just 29, that shift is complete with F-1 Trillion, an exhaustive 18-track country flex crammed full of the genre’s biggest hitters, from Wallen to Luke Combs to Blake Shelton.
