Post Malone’s first country album drops this month. He’s slated to perform at the Grand Ole Opry with a few special guests. Keep reading to find out more about the rapper’s Grand Ole Opry debut and which iconic country singers will join him.
Rapper Post Malone Takes On Country Music
Post Malone made a name for himself for his rap music. He made a surprise appearance at the 57th annual CMA Awards in November 2023. He joined Morgan Wallen and Hardy in a tribute to the late country singer Joe Diffie, who died in 2020. The rapper joined them for performances of Diffie’s hits, “John Deere Green” and “Pickup Man.”

Post Malone Invited To Grand Ole Opry By Popular Country Singer
Days before his album release, Post Malone will take the stage at the iconic Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. The Opry’s official social media accounts shared a video of Brad Paisley extending an invitation to the rapper-turned-country artist.
“Hey, Post. Brad, here. So, what I’m about to ask is going to mean a lot to you, I think, knowing you and knowing the respect you have for country music and this journey that you’re embarking on now as a hillbilly singer — which is gonna be massive and remarkable and amazing for both country music and you.”
“Would you like to play the Opry?” Paisley asked.
