What Fans Are Saying About Billboard’s Track Ranking of Post Malone’s Country Debut
A video featuring the Billboard track ranking hit TikTok and fans weren’t shy about sharing their opinions.
“You lost me two songs in,” one commenter wrote. Another opined that the list is “Invalid when you put ‘Had Some Help’ in the top three.”
Many commenters specifically took issue with the placement of “Hey Mercedes.” Some called its low spot on the list “criminal” and a few commenters said the song should have been in the top five at least.
Several commenters weighed in with their favorites from the album. Most fans who shared their No. 1 from the album chose either “Yours” or “What Don’t Belong to Me.” One fan noted that the former is the best penned song in Malone’s entire catalog. “Yours is the greatest song he’s ever written.”
“The best part of this album is seeing everyone in the comments with different ‘favorite’ tracks showing the versatility of the entire album and how great it is,” one fan pointed out.
Solo Tracks a Shining Highlight on Post Malone’s Debut Country Album
Of course, everyone’s ear for music is different and rankings are subjective. As someone who feels Malone shined the most on ‘F-1 Trillion’ when he went solo, my personal rankings (seen below) vastly differ from that of Billboard and highlight Malone’s solo prowess.
