Post Malone has denied he’s taking drugs following concerns over his recent weight loss.
The “White Iverson” rapper is currently touring Europe as part of his Twelve Carat Tour in support of last year’s album. After his show in Antwerp, Belgium on Thursday night (April 27), Posty took to Instagram to clear up concerns relating to his body and stage presence.

“4/28/2023, Antwerp Belgium! hello everybody, i hope you’re having a great night,” he began. “i wanted to say that i’m not doing drugs, i’ve had a lot of people ask me about my weight loss and i’d suppose, performance on stage.
“i’m having a lot of fun performing, and have never felt healthier. i guess dad life kicked in and i decided to kick soda, and start eating better so i can be around for a long time for this little angel.”

In addition to quitting soda and eating healthier, Post Malone is also planning to quit beer and cigarettes at some point. He also revealed he’s been working on new music recently.
“next up is smokes and brews, but i like to consider myself a patient man… lol!” he wrote. “i’ve spent a bit in the studio lately working on new music, and am so excited to share it with you, thank you for your patience and support y’all. you make my heart beat.

“i just wanted to say hi, and hopefully i’ll be posting more on here, my brain is in a super dope place, and i’m the happiest i’ve been in a long time. if you’re having a hard time or need some love, i can say that you’re loved more than you know, and keep fucking crushing it.”
He added: “goodnight nerds. spread love and rock on.”
Post Malone was previously accused of heavy drug use in 2020 following his actions on stage, but he claimed he was in a good place mentally.
“People are asking me if I’m ok or on heavy drugs or anything like that,” he told fans at a show in Memphis, Tennessee at the time. “I’m not on drugs and I feel the best I’ve ever fucking felt in my life.
“And that’s why I bust my ass for these shows, fall on the floor and do all that fun shit. But for anybody that’s concerned, I appreciate the love and support, but I feel fucking fantastic and I’m not going anywhere.”
Post Malone released his latest single “Chemical” earlier this month, which appeared on his compilation album The Diamond Collection to celebrate breaking the record for most diamond-certified singles by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
