“Saint-Tropez” by Post Malone

Post Malone’s “Saint-Tropez” is a song in which the artist is bragging about his opulent wealth. This is a common theme in the world of hip-hop, but Malone is taking a lighthearted approach to the subject. And his overall rationale for dropping the track is the fact that a number of the other tunes featured on his “Hollywood’s Bleeding” album are centered on more-depressing subject matter. So it’s safe to say he wanted to bring some balance to the project via the upbeat, celebratory “Saint-Tropez”.

And what he is celebrating, once again, for the most part is his cashflow. He goes about this task largely by namedropping pricey brands he patronizes. Furthermore, he proudly speaks about his tendency to buy expensive jewelry, even for his lady friends. Indeed the title of this song is actually the name of a town in France which is known for catering to the wealthy. In other words, it is intended to point to the idea of the singer being rich.

But in reality, the real reason Posty is rejoicing isn’t so much the fact that he’s paid per se. Rather he is reveling in the fact that reaching this level of success wasn’t easy, and his hard work has paid off.
