At the 2025 American Music Awards, Post Malone is very certain to face off against Kendrick Lamar.
With ten nominations, the legendary Pulitzer-winning rapper leads the award field, but the Sunflower hitmaker is not far behind with eight.
Malone’s contributions to the songs I Had Some Help (featuring Morgan Wallen) and Taylor Swift’s Fortnight (featuring Post Malone) earned him nominations for Artist of the Year, Favorite Male Country Artist, Song of the Year, Album of the Year, and two nominations for Collaboration of the Year.
Although Kendrick Lamar would compete against the California Sober hitmaker for Artist of the Year, Chappell Roan would also be a contender.
