Post Malone‘s love for country music runs deep.
During his Wild Horses Festival headlining set at Petco Park in San Diego, the “I Had Some Help” musician revealed the two artists he couldn’t get enough of in 2024.
Addressing the crowd, Malone, 29, first clarified he’s an Apple Music user and usually doesn’t pay much attention to those things. This year, however, he decided to share that his top two artists were “George Strait” and “Zach Top.”
After declaring his 2024 favorites, Malone introduced Top, 27, to the stage, and together they covered Vince Gill’s “Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin’ Away.”
Top performed earlier in the night, in addition to Paul Cauthen and Vincent Neil Emerson.

Meanwhile, Malone’s set featured a blend of country songs from his most recent album F-1 Trillion and older hits like “Circles,” “I Fall Apart,” “Rockstar” and “Sunflower.”
Malone’s headlining performance comes after his appearance during Beyoncé‘s epic Christmas Day halftime show at the Texans-Ravens game at NRG Stadium in Houston. Together, they performed their Cowboy Carter collab “LEVII’S JEANS.”
The “Better Now” singer expressed his appreciation for the moment in a message shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, Dec. 28.

“Thank you @Beyonce so much for havin me out in Houston, and on your beautiful record. Also, thank you for sharin your talent and art with the world. I love you,” he wrote.
Since the release of F-1 Trillion, which featured country stars like Morgan Wallen, Blake Shelton, Luke Combs, Tim McGraw, Lainey Wilson and more, Malone has been on a country music roll.
In November, he announced he’ll embark on The Big Ass Stadium Tour throughout North America in summer 2025 with Jelly Roll, whom he collaborated with on “Losers.”

The massive tour kicks off April 29 in Salt Lake City and makes stops in cities including Las Vegas, Dallas, Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, New York, Miami, Orlando, Denver, Seattle and more before wrapping July 1 in San Francisco.
F-1 Trillion was released in August, and the project reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Days beforehand, the “Chemical” performer marked a major milestone in his country music career when he made his Grand Ole Opry debut.
“He has a country heart and he is someone who immersed himself in the Nashville way,” Brad Paisley, who invited Malone to perform at the Opry, led off the performance by noting. “But you aren’t a country singer until you’ve played this.”
