Stoney
Stoney is the debut studio album by the American musician Post Malone, released on December 9, 2016, by Republic Records. After rising to prominence with his debut single "White Iverson" in 2015, Malone signed to Republic and began working on his debut album. His debut mixtape, August 26th, was released in May 2016.
Stoney received mixed reviews, with critics enjoying the hooks presented but finding its songwriting generic. The album received several award nominations, including Top Billboard 200 Album at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards. The album debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 and later peaked at number four on the chart, and also topped the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It eventually reached its 77th week in the top 10 of the latter chart, breaking a record set by Michael Jackson's Thriller (1982). It was certified five-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and double platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).
