a. he demonstrably is not; he's obviously replacement-level at best
b. post malone would jump out of his shoes to tell you that he's not a rapper, all while getting rich off of rap and its aesthetics and undermining it as a medium at every turn

“As if things couldn’t get any worse, Post Malone posed a question to the crowd: “Do you guys mind if I play my guitar for you?” he asked rhetorically, smoking a cigarette, sitting down for the part of the show where you are supposed to believe that he’s an artiste because he can competently strum an instrument.”

lol

No, I get all that, but there are moments in the article where he points specifically to stuff like sexist lyrics that would never be sticking points when it comes to guys like Boosie or Future. Ever.

So if Post Malone had the H&M deal and backed out, all musical sins would be forgiven? My point is, you could find & replace "Post Malone" for "G-Eazy" and this article would still make sense.

If Post Malone didn't exist, this article would have still been written about the next non-deserving popular artist

Post is barely 23 and has been known worldwide since he was 20. Why such high expectations? I don't understand the point of this article other than "Post Malone is white and makes EXTREMELY POPULAR meaningless pop rap, f--- him!"

...for dropping out of an ad campaign

also, while g-eazy's music is...you know...bad, he's a bay kid who's obsessed with bay rap and puts on for it every chance he gets. post has the exact opposite attitude toward hip-hop.

How could anyone take Post Malone this seriously

This article is the perfect article for this American moment. That’s not a compliment.

I didn't know post is white

post malone’s entire family is melting down about this on twitter :’(

Amazing read but they went a bit easy on him.

Before today I thought I was literally the only person on the planet that hates this man.

Article reads kinda awkward and forced (especially the beginning) imo. Probably because Post Malone is an easy target, as some of you said.
Btw I don't know where that worldwide popularity comes from. I'm french and I never heard his trash a--- music here

wow........someone isn’t taking this well

 

Oct 30, 2018

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat... He looks like Bam Margera's older brother. I'm shook he's younger than me.

 

Oct 30, 2018

I mean I'm not really a huge Post fan but the writer of this article seems like he'd be a fun time at parties

Quite a drubbing, but what an incredibly soft target to go in on.

Guys like Weiss will call balls and strikes on posers, but as we see in the article can't take off the rose tinted glasses for guys like Future who have plenty of problematic qualities.
