After welcoming his first child this summer, Post Malone opened up about his first few months fatherhood, confessing some challenges that come with trying to balance his career on the road and being there for his baby girl.

Luckily, the 27-year-old is said his daughter is already becoming a fan of his music.

"She hasn't cried whenever I put my music on so far, which I think is a good sign, but we'll wait and find out," the musician said. "I got to let her decide. I tried to play her some stuff, but I can't really tell what she's into right now."
