Post Malone's debut album, Stoney, has now crossed the 1 billion streams mark for 2019—joining his recent Hollywood's Bleeding and 2017's Beerbongs & Bentleys, both of which previously hit that benchmark—making the Republic star the first and only artist to have three albums earn more than a billion on-demand audio streams in a single year. The Grammy nominee's AMA performance moved the needle as well (see story link below). Perhaps nobody in the biz has had more of a right to say, "Hold my beer."
