Post Malone has been lighting up Europe since his sold-out Twelve Carat Tour hit Europe in mid-April with the first stop in Norway.
Malone, real name Austin Richard Post, is currently in London for three sold-out shows at The O2 Arena with fans losing their minds as the rapper pours his all into every show.
Since day 1, Post Malone has been revered as one of the nicest, most likable people in the Music industry. He’s sold over 80 million records worldwide and has crushed it at the awards with 10 Billboard Music Awards wins, 3 American Music Awards, and 9 Grammy nominations.
Post Malone will now receive his most prestigious award yet as the Songwriters Hall of Fame in Los Angeles announced that Post is the 2023 recipient of the Hal David Starlight Award.

Along the way, Posty broke the record for the most RIAA Diamond-certified singles from a single artist with 8 RIAA Diamond-certified singles. That record was previously held by Bruno Mars with 6. The sky’s the limit for Malone.

‘Sunflower’ featuring Swae Lee has the most views on YouTube with over 2 billion alone:
His YouTube channel has 13,975,108,179 views and counting.
This award is an incredible honor for an artist who is just 27 years old.
In addition to being an incredibly gifted songwriter, Malone also has a knack for putting his own emotional spin on classic songs like Pearl Jam’s ‘Better Man’. He really is a complete artist:
