Post Malone used to believe that Blake Shelton’s popular song Austin was written about him.
The duo teamed up for a track, Pour Me A Drink, which will be added in Post’s most-awaited album F-1 Trillion.
During a conversation with Post, Blake addressed the misconception, “Post’s real name is Austin, and he told me that when he was a kid, his mom told him that that [2001] song was written about him.”
He added, “That’s what he told me, and he said he believed it. His mom was, I guess, the country music fan in the family, and his dad was the rock guy. So, I guess that’s how Post Malone was created.”
Blake confessed that he’s super “excited” to collaborate with the American singer for his upcoming album.
“I mean, literally, we spent an hour one night him just with his iPod playing me music that he is fired up about,” he explained, “I still, to this day, have never asked him, ‘Hey, why me? Why did you call me for this?'”
Blake proudly shared that he’s super grateful to work with an “incredibly talented guy.”
F-1 Trillion is set to release on August 16.
