A Glasgow nightclub has shared some behind the scenes snaps and footage of Post Malone's afterparty following his gig at the OVO Hydro on Friday night.
The US rapper hit headlines yesterday after changing one Glasgow singer's life by giving him a house deposit in exchange for singing with him at his afterparty.
Singer Gregor Hunter Coleman had just finished singing at Glasgow's Wunderbar when he was asked to go through to speak to Post, who asked him how much it would cost for him to come sing at his official soiree in Glasgow nightclub Kong.
Gregor said he would do it for free but the rapper insisted on offering him "financial help" in the shape of money for a deposit for a new home, something that the budding musician had been saving hard for.
Speaking to Capital Scotland, Gregor said: "Basically I finished my set, went over and managed to speak to him and, meanwhile, loads of folk were crowding round and trying to get a photo with him and meet him and he called me through so the security took me through, he shook my hand and gave me a hug and he was like 'that was amazing!'.
"Then they were going round to Kong, to a more private bar, and he asked me to go round to sing with him and I was like 'of course yeah!' and he then asked me how much I would charge to sing with him, and I was like, 'well nothing because you're Post Malone!'
"And I couldn't believe it so he offered me financial help to go and sing with him which I thought was crazy because I was telling him I was saving for a house, so he helped me out with that, which was just crazy! So I was round singing songs with him for hours."
Presenter Fat Brestovci then asked what he meant by financial help, saying: "Did he buy you a house?"
And Gregor replied: "Well I've got
