POST Malone has undergone a body transformation that is so significant that it's undeniable.
Post Malone, 28, took the stage with country music stars Brad Paisley, 51, and Dwight Yoakam, 67, at the 2024 Stagecoach Festival over the weekend.
The Congratulations rapper, who now sings country music, kept it casual during his performance, wearing jeans, a red plaid button-down shirt, and a trucker hat.
He seemed to give his music set his all, at one point singing to the crowd as he played the guitar.
Post Malone's informal ensemble not only represented his new public persona, but also his drastic weight loss.

The Grammy-nominated performer looked very slim onstage, with his leaner torso and trimmed-down arms and legs.
He was no longer built stocky like he was when he came onto the music scene in 2016.
Post Malone's bulk was one of his calling cards until he finally got too heavy for his liking.
At his largest weight, which was 240 pounds, the hitmaker decided it was time to take his health seriously.
Lately, the Better Now singer has proudly been showcasing a much slimmer figure.
He credited his transformation to cutting out unhealthy food and soda.
In 2023, Post Malone addressed his weight loss in an Instagram post during his tour in Antwerp, Belgium, after fans grew concerned about his diminishing weight.
MALONE'S FITNESS SECRETS
He shared a selfie in his hotel room that showed him with a pair of camouflage-print, alligator-skin cowboy boots beside his head.
The caption read, "4/28/2023, Antwerp Belgium! hello everybody, i hope you’re having a great night."
I’m a fitness pro & everyone makes the same mistake when trying to lose weight
"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," he continued.
"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."
The entertainer welcomed a daughter with his fiancee in May 2022.
He then joked, "next up is smokes and brews, but i like to consider myself a patient man… lol!"
Post Malone also revealed that he was "the happiest" he'd been in a long time and told fans, "if you’re having a hard time or need some love, i can say that you’re loved more than you know, and keep f**king crushing it."
In the post's comment section, one fan wrote, "You actually look amazing, healthy and even just your face looks like [you're] ten years younger than before your healthy lifestyle changes.
"Keep up the great work."
"You look amazing! So awesome for you and your little princess," commented another.
"Glad 2 hear it keep inspiring!" one shared.
SOME LIKE IT HOT
On October 17, 2023, Post Malone revealed his secret to losing weight, or more accurately his secret to enjoying bland food, during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show.
Howard, 70, told him, "I gotta compliment you, I mean you're wearing a heavy coat but you've lost a s**t load of weight. Not on Ozempic, you did it the old-fashioned way, right?"
The Austin artist bashfully accepted the praise before the radio host asked, "What did you do? Because you look good."
"The first step was, I remember I went on tour and I was like, 'You know what? I'm going to eat grilled chicken, I'm going to eat carrots, and I'm going to have a little bit of white rice, every night," he replied.
He revealed that he ate healthy meals with hot sauce, exclaiming, "Hot sauce has no calories in it! I was blown away!"
