49 free Post Malone trivia questions with answers — music quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
41 free Post Malone trivia questions with answers. Post Malone went from a SoundCloud upload called 'White Iverson' to one of the most streamed artists alive, then pivoted to country and topped the charts again. This quiz follows the whole arc: growing up in Grapevine, Texas, the rap-name generator that produced 'Malone', the Republic Records deal, Stoney and its three Diamond singles, Beerbongs & Bentleys' streaming records, 'Sunflower' from Into the Spider-Verse, 'Circles' and its 61-week Hot 100 run, the Nirvana livestream, 'Fortnight' with Taylor Swift, 'I Had Some Help' with Morgan Wallen and the F-1 Trillion guest list. Easy questions ask which film 'Sunflower' comes from and who features on 'Rockstar'; hard ones want the metalcore band that rejected him, the peak position of 'White Iverson' and the record Stoney took from Thriller. There is also a little on the tattoos, the Crocs, the Magic: The Gathering cards and the Raising Cane's he designed. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the artist, his albums and singles, and each question carries the sentence that supports it.
