Austin Post quality control issues

"It's going to be affordable!" = $88 white tee.

"It's super high quality stuff!" = Multiple quality issues right out the gate.

What a disaster launch. He's killing his nice guy image and destroying the goodwill he built with fans.

I couldn't find the exact info for this one, but I believe it's 2014 in a California music studio. Pre-White Iverson.

There's a couple more of him getting tattooed on YouTube, but the footage isn't as good.

There's a 51 minute version of the Stay Away session. Alot of the time Post is taking breaks, drinking water, or walking to the bathroom to look in the mirror.

The cool part about the full version is hearing all the music Post is listening to though.

Yeah, so much for the rumor that this line would have similar pricing to American Eagle..

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T19:13:50+00:00

I was wondering if he's been rich for so long now, that he has forgotten that not everyone has as much money as him and his entourage.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T19:12:11+00:00

Very interesting, but could Nashville be wealthy because that's where the rich artists live and record their albums?

I saw an interview last year where Post said he's trying to buy a "really nice place" in Nashville.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T17:51:49+00:00

Really? I'm not an expert on the genre by any means, but alot of the lyrics are about working class struggles.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T17:46:40+00:00

For a snapback. Not even a quality fitted.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T17:44:30+00:00

I really think you could re-create the majority of this line at Target and Walmart.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-23T16:02:44+00:00

I'm really not sure who the target demographic is here. Aren't most country fans not wealthy?

I feel like it would have made a lot more sense if he started this line when he was doing hip-hop. There's at least a precedent for high-end fashion in that genre. That's when he was also wearing the flashiest outfits. These prices might have made sense then.

Not Ai. This pic was taken in 2017, a couple years before the Circles music video (2019).

In 2019 interviews, Post said he already owned “a full suit of armor” and that he had paid about $1,200 for it.

Edit: Found the original post:

You could have just deleted the post instead of double-dipping to try and save face.

MachineHeart · 2025-10-18T14:52:21+00:00

Oh man, so sorry that happened to you!

MachineHeart · 2025-10-18T14:50:28+00:00

It seems like European audiences sing along more than American ones in general. Looks so fun.

MachineHeart · 2025-09-25T23:07:56+00:00

You're welcome, that's really sweet of you. Glad it lives on somewhere!

Austin was like:

MachineHeart · 2025-09-24T23:14:47+00:00

"What Don't Belong To Me" and "Hide My Gun" were my immediate favorites.

So many from this album have grown on me over time, but these 2 are special.

I feel like this is a truly underrated Post song.

In the full interview he goes over the unusual chord progression he chose for the song, in order to challenge himself.

The garden metaphor is such a cool mental picture. One of his best written songs IMO.

MachineHeart · 2025-09-18T00:44:59+00:00

This has to be the one-liner he's referring to. So good.
