Post Malone releases new album

Post Malone released his third studio album Hollywood’s Bleeding on Friday, Sept. 6.

The album’s 17 songs include “Sunflower,” “Circles,” “Goodbyes,” and “Wow,”  four singles previously released prior to the album.

The album includes some of his softer, more heart-filled R&B styles highlighting his hardships in relationships and personal pain like his first studio album, Stoney.

In comparison to his other albums, Hollwood’s Bleeding holds steady, with Stoney bypassing Beerbongs & Bentleys.

With songs like “Goodbyes” and “I Know,” Post Malone describes his love and how he does things to try and forget the pain he has gone through. In the song “I Know,” Malone states that “I’d rather be single for life than to be with you,” highlighting how he is changing.

In the song “A Thousand Bad Times” Malone shows that he is moving on from the pain of a toxic relationship and making himself the best he can, stating:

I had a thousand bad times, so what’s another time to me?
You try to burn my house down, but what’s another house to me?
Because I can take anything that you give me.
It’s going to take a lot more to kill me.
So thank you for the grave, I needed me a place to sleep.

These quotes are a small sample of a common theme throughout the album; he is at the top of the music industry and knows it. This collection of music is his journey of enjoying his reign and ignoring everyone pulling him down. 

While there are some soft songs, Malone still has some songs that show how he got his start in relation to “Congratulations” and “White Iverson.”

Songs like “On the Road” and “Take What You Want” show more of Malone’s rap side while incorporating artists including Future, Halsey, Ozzy Osbourne, Travis Scott, DaBaby, Meek Mill and Lil Baby.

The album shows how music is changing and how the world is evolving with his song “Internet” where Malone talks about how the internet and the media are causing issues in the world.

This sense of radical change in the music industry is reflected in the album cover, which shows Malone standing in an archway in front of a set of swords and a pile of bones.

The album has many explicit songs so for listeners, discretion is advised, but for those who do listen, enjoy.
