No features are listed on the 17-song tracklist shared today, but that doesn't mean Posty won't reveal them over the coming weeks.

Now that he's comfortably settled into his role as a first-time father, Post Malone is eager to get back to his full-time career as a musician. Since sharing Twelve Carat Toothache in June 2022, a lot has changed for the New York-born star, from his physical appearance to the operations of his day-to-day life. Much of that is likely to come up throughout his fifth studio album, AUSTIN, which he announced in May.

On Monday (June 26), Posty confirmed the release date for the project – July 28th – via Twitter. "My new record 'AUSTIN' has 17 songs," he excitedly shared along with the other news. "Here's a snippet of one of 'em, I love you!!!" the "Congratulations" singer's message ended. Beneath, a 30-second teaser reveals what's likely to be the album's next single, as well as the complete tracklist and cover art.

The highly anticipated release will begin with "Don't Understand" and "Something Real," two new songs before we move into familiar territory with his first single of 2023. Other interesting names we can't wait to hear include "Novacandy," "Too Cool To Die," "Socialite," and "Texas Tea." Interestingly, no features are included on the list. Seeing as Malone frequently collaborates with friends in the industry, it's likely he'll begin to reveal who he's worked with as AUSTIN's debut nears closer. On 2022's LP, he connected with Roddy Ricch, Doja Cat, Gunna, The Weeknd, and others.

Ahead of sharing today's tracklist, Post Malone has given fans two singles already this year. The first, "Chemical," hit streamers in mid-April, and already has over 134M streams on Spotify. More recently, he shared "Mourning," which will be the fifth title on AUSTIN.
