Post Malone has undergone a significant evolution from his “White Iverson” days, fully embracing a country and pop sound over hip-hop. The good news is that his music now exudes a sense of contentment and purity, which seems to align with his personal happiness. Today, he made a return to the music scene with a new country single called “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen.
Reverse psychology is abused in “I Had Some Help.” In the song, Post Malone and Morgan Wallen commend their partners for their roles in the breakdown of their relationships. Though the lyrics are laced with sarcasm, it’s a healthier alternative to holding onto anger.
Despite the toxic nature of the song’s lyrics, it exudes a surprisingly gentle vibe. Set against the backdrop of typical country production, evoking images of blue jeans and homemade pie, Post Malone’s heavenly voice cracks blend seamlessly with Morgan Wallen’s roaring vocals. Together, they deliver something impactful, pure, and undeniably intoxicating.
I’m the kind of person who might mistake sarcasm for praise. At times, when I’m listening to others, all I pick up on are the compliments.
