Post Malone may have transitioned genres, but his dominance on the charts remains unshaken. According to a recent report from Chart Data on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, August 17, Post Malone’s new country album, F-1 Trillion, is projected to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
This new LP is anticipated to move the equivalent of 200-225K units in its first week, marking Malone’s first chart-topping album since 2019. The success of F-1 Trillion highlights Post Malone's seamless shift from hip-hop and pop to country music, further expanding his influence in the music industry.
In addition to his musical ventures, Post Malone is also making waves in Hollywood. The “Circles” singer has taken on an acting role in the upcoming reimagining of the 1989 film Road House. Starring alongside Jake Gyllenhaal, who takes on the role originally made famous by Patrick Swayze, Malone plays the character Carter. Gyllenhaal expressed his excitement about working with Posty on Instagram, sharing a photo of them together and captioning it, “A man of many talents. To say it was a pleasure working together is an understatement. Welcome to the #roadhouse @postmalone!”
While Post Malone’s focus has shifted to pop and country music, he still faces lingering criticism from his time in the hip-hop scene, where accusations of being a "culture vulture" continue to follow him. Despite this, his versatility and success across multiple genres and entertainment mediums prove that Post Malone’s star power is far from fading.
