August 26th is the debut mixtape from Post Malone. The Texas-raised artist rose to prominence after his hit song, “White Iverson,” took over 2015. With only a few songs on the internet, he landed a featured verse on “Fade” off Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo. He’s also the opening act for Justin Bieber on the North America leg of his Purpose tour. August 26th, 2016 was the date on which Post originally planned to release his debut album, Stoney, hence the title of the mixtape. Despite this, the album date had been pushed back, and was eventually released on December 9th, 2016. This mixtape features verses from Lil Yachty, 2 Chainz, Jaden Smith, among others, with production from FKi, Rex Kudo, and more.
