Already having a successful career in music, Post Malone grew an impressive fanbase with hits like “Sunflower” and “Better Now.” While thrilled about the success he created, the singer wanted to expand his career into the world of country music. With such a deep history in music, country has gone through some changes in recent years as stars like Lainey Wilson and Jelly Roll dominate the genre. But with the release of F-1 Trillion, it seems fans can’t get enough of Malone’s debut in country music. And wanting to promote his new album, it seems the truck from his album cover is parked in downtown Nashville.

Looking at the cover of F-1 Trillion, the image showed a truck appearing to stand straight up on a lake. But thanks to a video, it showed the truck wasn’t standing on the water but plunging into it. Using slow motion, cameras were able to capture the exact moment the truck and water met. And the final result ended up as the cover art for F-1 Trillion. But while getting the perfect picture, the truck still took some damage.
Post Malone Promises He Isn’t “Sad” Anymore
Wanting to spread the word about F-1 Trillion, Malone and his team decided to park the truck in downtown Nashville at the Bridgestone Arena. Even the Nashville Predators mascot, Gnash, couldn’t help but snag a picture with the truck. They even brought a sign reading, “For Sale: Famously pre-owned. Minor repairs needed, some water damage.”
Outside of showcasing the truck, Malone discussed the process of embracing Nashville when he first arrived. Somewhat surprised by how inviting the town was, the singer told Apple Music, “I can’t remember the last album that I made where I was like, I have a 2-year-old, I’m 29 years old… I’m taking it easy and slowing it down. And I think it’s really nice meeting people in Nashville that made me feel so welcome and new friends and kind of building new stuff. And for once I’m not sad anymore. I’m happy, very happy… And it was such a fresh thing going and watching this band and writing with new people, and I’m so fucking pumped.”
