These Days (feat. Jelly Roll, Breland, Hozier)
Post Malone
This is a campfire song that somehow also feels like a cathedral. Built on acoustic guitar and sparse percussion, the track opens slowly and intentionally, the kind of song that makes you feel the weight of years before a single lyric lands. Post Malone's voice here is at its most unguarded — hoarse around the edges, emotionally exposed, less pop star than someone confessing in a quiet room. Jelly Roll brings gravel and gospel, Breland offers smooth country-soul clarity, and Hozier's baritone entry feels like a door opening onto a storm. Together, the four voices create a generational sweep — each one representing a different relationship with grief, survival, and the passage of time. The production resists polish deliberately, keeping the low end soft and the arrangement skeletal. It's a song about what endures after loss, about the weight that collects in a person quietly over years. You'd listen to this alone at night, or maybe with someone you've known long enough that silence between you is comfortable.
