About this sound

✦ AI

The hook from Post Malone's hit Rockstar, featuring 21 Savage, with its laid-back trap beat and memorable chorus. Creators use it for edits and flex moments.

This clip captures the instantly recognisable opening of Rockstar, Post Malone's chart-topping collaboration with 21 Savage, built around a sparse, hazy trap beat, soft guitar-like melody and Malone's relaxed, melodic delivery. The rhythm feels confident and unhurried, while the repeated hook sticks in the listener's head almost immediately, giving any edit a cool, celebratory swagger. It works because the sound is familiar without needing explanation, instantly signalling success, style and a laid-back attitude to anyone who hears those first few bars.

Rockstar was released in 2017 as a single by American rapper and singer Post Malone featuring 21 Savage, later appearing on Malone's album Beerbongs and Bentleys. It spent eight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and became one of the most streamed songs of its era, helped by its simple, repeatable hook. The track has stayed in circulation through short-form videos, sports edits and gaming montages, where its opening seconds alone are enough to signal confidence and success.

Pro Tip for Usage
