Global superstar Post Malone makes his Romanian debut at Untold

Post Malone, one of the most influential figures in contemporary music and a global superstar, will perform for the first time in Romania at the anniversary edition of the UNTOLD festival.

With over 80 million records sold and 59.5 billion Spotify streams, Post Malone is among the best-selling artists of all time. He has won 10 Billboard Music Awards, three American Music Awards, and an MTV Video Music Award and has received 18 Grammy nominations. Hits like “Circles,” “Rockstar,” “Sunflower,” and many more will be performed live for the first time on the Cluj-Arena stage at UNTOLD X, the festival’s 10th-anniversary edition.

In August 2018, the American artist broke a 34-year-old record held by Michael Jackson for the most weeks spent on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. His album Stoney remained on the chart for 77 weeks, surpassing Thriller’s 76 weeks. In 2025, Post Malone entered the ranking of the most-streamed artists on Spotify, with his single Sunflower reaching 3.65 billion streams.

His debut album, Stoney (2016), set the tone for his future success, with hit singles like Congratulations (feat. Quavo) making him a defining name in the music industry. His subsequent albums, Beerbongs & Bentleys (2018) and Hollywood’s Bleeding (2019), solidified his status as a megastar. With global hits like Rockstar, Circles, and Sunflower, Post Malone has become one of the most streamed artists worldwide. Beerbongs & Bentleys captured the hedonistic essence of Generation Z, while Hollywood’s Bleeding explored the dark side of fame.

Post Malone is a record-breaking artist with an impressive track record: 9 diamond-certified singles—the most by any artist—18 Grammy nominations, 11 Billboard Music Awards (including Artist of the Year in 2020), and billions of streams on music platforms. Beyond the numbers, he remains an authentic and accessible artist, as well as a trendsetter in the music industry. In 2024, Post Malone collaborated with Taylor Swift on Fortnight, which broke a Spotify streaming record on its release day. That same year, he worked with Beyoncé on Levii’s Jeans and received seven Grammy nominations at the 2025 awards.
