“I definitely feel like thereās a struggle being a white rapper,” Post Malone said. āBut I donāt want to be a rapper. I just want to be a person that makes music. I make music that I like and I think that kicks ass, that I think the people who f*ck with me as a person and as an artist will like.ā
āIt should just be music, you know?” he later added.
His comments didn’t go over well with fans. On social media, they went after Posty.
