Post Malone’s foray into country music is proving to be more than just a passing experiment. With his latest album, F-1 Trillion, the multi-genre artist has made a powerful entrance into the country scene, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Released on August 16, the album quickly earned 250,000 units in its first week, marking the second-largest debut of 2024.
Following in the footsteps of artists like Lainey Wilson and Jelly Roll, who are leading a new wave in country music, Malone’s shift to the genre comes on the heels of Beyoncé’s successful country album Cowboy Carter, which debuted earlier this year. Though F-1 Trillion didn’t quite match the 407,000 units Beyoncé’s album brought in during its first week, Malone’s achievement is still impressive, solidifying his place in the evolving landscape of country music.
With F-1 Trillion, Post Malone not only celebrates his country debut but also demonstrates his versatility and staying power as one of the most dynamic artists in the music industry today. Fans and critics alike are taking note, as Malone continues to expand his artistic horizons.
