Post Malone Nominated For “I Had Some Help”
As for his performance at the CMT Awards, fans offered their thoughts on the song, writing, “As a single father with full custody of two beautiful daughters (3) and (5). This song really made me feel something for the first time in a long time. Love this new era of posty. Been here for all of it and can’t wait to see where it will continue to go.” Another fan insisted, “Post Malone is the best cross over to country ever.”
Just last month, Malone sat down with Esquire to discuss his entrance into country music. When wanting to create F-1 Trillion, the singer found himself in the company of some big names in the genre. Sharing what it was like, he said, “I met Tim McGraw. I got to hang out with Miranda [Lambert]. Blake [Shelton] is a trip. And you know, just writing with Morgan and HARDY and Luke [Combs], those are the boys. I’ll get to write with Dean Dillon.”
Besides his love for country music, Malone hoped to add another award to his list of accomplishments as his song “I Had Some Help”, featuring Morgan Wallen, was nominated for Single Of The Year.
