BILLBOARD ROCKSTAR POST MALONE LOOP UPDATE
What’s the update on Beerpongs & Bentleys? Post Malone Stage Dives Unsuccessfully During Live 'Rockstar,' Continues Performance From Floor Those were some of the dopest commercials of all-time. Him and Jada used to go back and forth in the Reebok commercials. He said he wanted Jadakiss on the remix, so we’d have to work on that. You should have asked him for a quick verse for a remix. He said his kids loved it and everybody loves it, so that meant the world to me that I had his blessings. It was a dream come true, just to see that he actually liked the song. My manager goes, “Hey, you wanna meet Allen?” I’m like, “Hell yeah I wanna meet Allen.” So we just went up to some house up in the Hills - we had a couple glasses of champagne and we just kicked it for a little bit. I think that’s important and that’s one of my biggest goals by the end of my music career, to have push the boundaries and help blur the lines of what the genres of today are.Ī couple of months back, you were able to hang out with Allen Iverson.
I think you should listen to what you like and who cares what genre it is. I think it’s just important to remember that music in my brain is not one genre and I don’t think it should be put into genres. From metal to hip-hop, and my mom put me on country. I feel like it’s really just like when I was younger. How have you been able to maintain your love and taste for music and not just hip-hop? You’ve covered tracks by Green Day, Kanye West and Frank Sinatra. You’ve proven to have an eclectic taste in music. I just really want to keep putting out music. You know, I guess it’s kind of a thin line between being confident in your music and who you are and not taking advantage of it and not going to far with it and still knowing that there’s fans out there that are still waiting for new music and fans that are waiting for you to really push the boundaries of what modern music is. There’s also the fear of putting out a bad song and everybody getting a lot hate from it. How much confidence do you have right now in yourself and your career after the success that you’ve been able to attain?
There’s a lot of pressure to make the best music and I just want to make music that I can relate to and that my fans can relate to at the same time. The Apple streaming record actually really surprised me, so I’m hoping for the next one, I can beat my own record.
I guess I just want to keep on growing and one day be the biggest artist in the world, and just do my best to put out the best music that I can. You always wanna strive to get bigger and better and push the limits of what you can actually do. I guess as an artist, it’s never really enough. Why are you worried about people still liking you considering you’re coming off a successful album with Stoney and you’ve had very strong singles with “White Iverson” and “Congratulations?” I’m so thankful that people still like me. She’s super sweet and super dope, but you know, hopefully we’ll have it - and we also broke an Apple streaming record, which is super dope. That’s the highest I’ve ever been up there. You know, it’s kind of crazy, it’s kind of mind-blowing. Ironically, your latest single is called “Rockstar” and that did work - what was your initial reaction when you first heard that the song debuted at No. I guess I was trying to be cool, but it didn’t really work. You know, we redeemed ourselves the next night, but I don’t really know what I was thinking. I guess I wasn’t, huh? You know, I had a couple of beers and I’m kind of a big guy. The song was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Rap/Sung Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.Billboard caught up with Post Malone to talk “Rockstar” and its instant success, the creation of his latest record, meeting Mr. Allen Iverson in the flesh, and his goal of being one of the best artists in the world.įirst off, what were you thinking with that stage dive last weekend, man?
