Post Malone is an American Hip Hop artist who grew up in Dallas Texas. He is often asked about his ethnic background and being a “white rapper” with cornrows, the discussion of “culture vulture” has come up early in his career. On a Power 105.1 Breakfast Club interview, Post Malone was asked if he was Puerto Rican or ‘trans-racial’ to which he denied.
He credits his father as the one who introduced him to Hip Hop with Lean Back by Fat Joe, being the first Hip Hop track he listened to.
