Post Malone has been omnipresent on the Billboard charts in the last three years, but he has always been more of a hitmaker than a critical darling. Up to this point, he has occupied a similar cultural space as the Limp Bizkits and Nickelbacks of yore: making a killing while getting a persistent side-eye from reviewers. But his third album, “Hollywood’s Bleeding,” may be an exception. It’s getting some of the best reviews of his career.
Though his last album, “Beerbongs and Bentleys,” was a massive hit (still in the top 15 on the Billboard 200 albums chart after almost a year and a half) and was even a surprise Grammy nominee for Album of the Year, the reviews were mediocre at best, scoring 51 on Metacritic. Now “Hollywood’s Bleeding” has drastically improved on that with a score of 78 based on nine reviews counted thus far — all of them rated as positive.
