Post Malone, born Austin Richard Post, has become one of the biggest artists in the world. He is best known for his hit tracks, “White Iverson” and “Congratulations,” but there’s more to Post Malone than good tunes. With his free spirit and ability to be unapologetically himself, it’s hard for someone not to like him.
1. Post Malone is weird in all the best ways
Post is one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to living your best life. He wears what he wants, he says what he wants, and he does what he wants to, without caring about what others have to say. He embraces what makes him different and it’s a lesson we all could benefit from.
2. There is rarely a moment where he isn't seen smiling
Personally, I find his smile to be totally infectious. Post Malone has this energy about him that has the ability to lift your mood. It makes you want to keep watching him and it makes you not want to turn off his music. Post is the kind of guy that you always want to be around.
3. Post Malone's main focus is simply making good music
“I'm just trying to make music everybody can get happy to and vibe to and turn up to. So long as I keep making good music, everything's going to be OK.” — Post Malone.
He isn’t worried about being labeled a rapper or being tied down to one single genre. Post instead focuses on creating something that he is proud of. His album Stoney offers so much versatility that there’s bound to be something on there that makes you feel good.
4. He is a total goofball
I could scroll through Post’s Twitter account for hours on end and not get bored. People wouldn’t believe some of the stuff that comes out of his mouth.
5. Post Malone isn't afraid to keep it real
“I’m just myself. That’s the best way to put it.” — Post Malone
Often times people will judge a book by its cover and it’s especially true when it comes to Post Malone. Someone might look at his unkempt exterior and shrug him off as just another rapper without giving him or his music the time of day. What people fail to realize though, is that Post Malone stresses the value of being true to yourself and doing what makes you happy.
