Post Malone says new music is almost done, apologises for wait
Post Malone has told fans he is almost done with new music and apologised for taking so long to share it.
In an Oct. 15 Instagram post, he said a large batch of songs is on the way. He wrote “a s–tload of songs coming!!!” and promised followers that “next time it won’t take 3 years,” according to Billboard.
The message was brief. It was his clearest update on the next record in months.
He has not put out an album since 2024’s F-1 Trillion. That set debuted atop the Billboard 200, the US album chart, to give him his third No. 1 there.
It was his sixth studio album, with its title and Aug. 16 release date revealed through a photo of a roadside billboard, as reported by Rolling Stone. The apology points to that gap. October 2026 is a little over two years on from that release, and he is telling fans he does not want the next interval to stretch to three.
The new post included a photo of a whiteboard filled with possible song titles. Four were written in black: “Chrome Heartbreaker,” “Death of the Bow,” “Call You Back” and “Impossible.”
Six more were written in red: “Doesn’t Exist,” “Memorize,” “Rescue Me,” “Parachute,” “Track Me Down” and “Soulmate.” He did not say which titles will make the final cut. No release date was given in the post.
The colours were a progress chart. Black meant finished lyrics and vocals, while red meant songs written but still waiting for vocals.
The update follows a short delay to his Big Ass Tour with Jelly Roll. He pushed the run back by a few weeks to finish work on the next album. The coming record is expected to be titled The Eternal Buzz.
His live schedule continues around the studio work. He is listed to perform on Oct. 24, 2026 at the Formula 1 Grand Prix Weekend in Austin, Texas. His site also spotlights “Losers ft. Jelly Roll (Live from The BIG ASS Stadium Tour),” a recording from the joint run.
For fans, this means the finish line is closer. Four finished vocal tracks and six drafts with words in place suggest an album moving through the middle stage of recording. A tour held to protect studio time backs that up.
