Post Malone‘s first time landing at No. 1 on the chart was his 21 Savage-assisted October 2017 single, “Rockstar.” His second was his Ty Dolla $ign-featured, spring 2018 single “Psycho.” His third and last up to this point was 2018’s “Sunflower,” which features Swae Lee. “Circles” is his first No. 1 with no other writing credits besides his own.
For Post, who recently closed out his latest national tour, this No. 1 placement marks just the latest in a long line of wins. On Sunday night, Posty won the American Music Award for Favorite Album – Rap/Hip-Hop. Understandably, Post was pretty stoked for the win, but a lot of rap fans weren’t because his music leans more towards pop-infused with other hip-hop and rock influences than straightforward rap.
