Post Malone has just released his second studio album, ‘beerbongs & bentleys‘, and it’s absolutely chock-a-block with braggadocio – about his money, his fame, and his treatment of other human beings. A lot of it is absolutely impossible to identify with – to prove it, we’ve chosen 10 of the least relatable moments on album two.
1. “I don’t even wanna go home / In a big house all alone” (‘Rich and Sad’)
Poor old Post – living, as he does, in a massive mansion.
2. “Now y’all see me / On the TV / Multimillionaire by the time I’m 23” (‘Zack and Codeine’)
Do you want a medal?
3. “Two hundred bands under the floor of kitchen / A little more up in the walls and the ceiling” (‘Paranoid’)
That’s some Breaking Bad shit right there.
4. “Act a fool on stage / Prolly leave my fuckin’ show in a cop car” (‘Rockstar’)
Ah yeah, the being-such-a-dick-in-front-of-a-crowd-that-you-get-arrested night. Classic!
5. “Felt like ballin’ was the only thing to do / Trade my women for some diamonds and a coupe” (‘Over Now’)
Exceedingly, exceedingly questionable behaviour.
6. “Hunnid thousand plus hunnid thousand – my whip / 30 thousand plus 30 thousand – my wrist” (‘Ball For Me’ ft. Nicki Minaj)
Well I have a £5 Casio.
7. “Got diamonds by the boatload” (‘Psycho’)
Cool story bro.
8. “I hit Rodeo, spent like 40 G’s / Four hunnid pairs of Gucci socks” (‘92 Explorer’)
Where will you keep them all, Post? In your massive mansion?
9. “Spent a hundred bands in one night / I know you wanna live this life” (‘Same Bitches’)
Nope, not really.
10. “Let her cut that coco on my platinum plaque” (‘Sugar Wraith’)
Today’s number is eight, as in: Post has eight platinum plaques on which to cut his cocaine.
