Tom Morello Says Post Malone Writes Like Chris Cornell: ‘Hooky, Beautiful, Terrifying’


Tom Morello revealed he has an unfinished 'banger' with Post Malone and compared Posty's writing style to Chris Cornell in a recent podcast interview.

In recent years, Post Malone has collaborated with everyone from country music legend Dolly Parton to pop hitmakers Doja Cat and Taylor Swift. “When we would write songs with Chris, we sort of threw music at him — whether it was a simple chord progression like ‘I Am the Highway’ or a more complicated heavy riff — and he would just come up instantaneously with a bunch of great melodies,” Morello said. Malone has long idolized rock greats, and even performed “Dream On” and “Toys in the Attic” with Aerosmith to close out the 2018 MTV Video Music awards.
