Post Malone is no stranger to breaking musical boundaries, but his cover of Sturgill Simpson’s “You Can Have The Crown” took fans by surprise in the best way possible. During the We’re Texas virtual benefit concert—hosted by Matthew McConaughey—Malone delivered an unforgettable performance, swapping his usual rap and pop-rock vibes for a full-on country sound. With Dwight Yoakam’s band backing him up, he didn’t just cover the song—he made it his own, proving his deep love for country music.
The concert was organized to support Texans impacted by the devastating winter storms of early 2021, with proceeds going toward disaster relief efforts. Featuring country icons like Willie Nelson and George Strait, the event had no shortage of legendary talent. But Malone’s unexpected song choice and effortless transition into the genre made him one of the night’s biggest standouts.
Fans of both Post Malone and country music were quick to praise his raw vocals and authentic delivery. His performance wasn’t just a fun surprise—it was a clear sign that his musical range goes far beyond what people might expect. Now, the big question is: will he dive deeper into country music in the future? After this, fans certainly hope so!
