Post Malone & Zach Top Team Up For Cover Of Vince Gill’s “Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin’ Away”
Just two dudes who appreciate classic country music.
At first glance, Zach Top and Post Malone might seem like polar opposites. Zach has been praised for bringing back the traditional country sound to the mainstream, and Post Malone is a tattooed pop star who just recently dropped his debut country album which included collaborations with many of the biggest pop country stars, along with some country legends.
But one thing they both have in common is their respect for the classics.
Posty has often paid tribute to the legends of country music, from covering Hank Williams and George Strait to recording with Dwight Yoakam's band and taking the stage at iconic Nashville honky tonks like Tootsie's and Robert's Western World. At a time when pop artists are quick to jump into country music, it seems that Post actually respects and appreciates country music - which is why he's been welcomed with open arms while other artists are looked upon skeptically.
He's also apparently a fan of Zach Top, which makes sense because he's one of the hottest new acts out there. His breakout single "I Never Lie" was one of the biggest songs of 2024, and at this point he seems poised to carry the torch for traditional country music for years to come.
Post recently even covered "I Never Lie" during an impromptu appearance at the legendary Flora-Bama.

And yesterday, the two had the opportunity to team up and pay tribute to another country legend.
Posty and Zach were both on the lineup for Wild Horses Festival in San Diego, held at Petco Park, the home of the San Diego Padres. And the superstars decided to take the stage together and perform not one of their own songs, but a classic from Vince Gill.
The duo treated the crowd to a cover of Gill's 1992 single "Don't Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away."

An unlikely duo? Maybe. But with their shared love of country music legends, it seems like these two probably have more in common than you'd expect. And there's no doubt that when you put the two of them together it's going to be a hell of a party.
Zach even recently joked about being considered a rising star in country music alongside Post Malone:
"Me and Post Malone, bringing country back. Me, him and Beyonce."

It may sound a little crazy, but after hearing them together, I definitely wouldn't be mad at some more '90s country covers from these two.
Of course Zach is also one who frequently dips back into the catalog of '90s country classics, having recently covered John Michael Montgomery's "Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident)," and teaming up with Riley Green for a cover medley that included Merle Haggard's "Mama Tried" and "Time Marches On" from Tracy Lawrence.
If there's anybody who knows a thing or two about classic country music, it's Zach Top. So seeing him influence the pop stars who are crossing into country music can only be a good thing for the genre.
