Sometimes what you see in a music video is all smoke and mirrors, an illusion of fun carefully crafted to make it seem like the artists are living it up and having a killer time together. Then there’s Post Malone and Blake Shelton‘s “Pour Me a Drink.”

The clip for the song from Posty’s upcoming country debut album, F-1 Trillion (August 16) has a silly, simple premise: a couple of good ol’ boys meet at a convenience store and then decide to hang together at a party in the woods with a bunch of their best-looking friends to have some brews, smokes and strum a tune on the back of a pick-up truck.

It’s all in good fun, and now thanks to a behind-the-scenes video posted by Shelton on Wednesday (July 31) we have a better sense of just how much of a blast the shoot was. In the 30-second clip captioned, “Y’all know who it goes [beer stein emoji] @postmalone,” Shelton is seen singing the chorus into the lens of a camera on a dolly as it follows him across the field. Malone bops around in the background with his ubiquitous red Solo cup and camo baseball hat in hand. By the end, the two men are lip synching together and busting out some impromptu boot scooting dance moves as Shelton smiles at Posty’s loose vibe.

The b-roll comes more than a month after Posty posted a clip of the two men strumming the song on acoustic guitars in a woody setting near a lake that appears to be the location shoot for the finished video. It also came on the same day that Malone finally announced the full 18-song tracklist for the eagerly anticipated F-1 Trillion, which will feature songs with previously known acts Morgan Allen, Blake Shelton, Hardy and Luke Combs, as well as Tim McGraw, Hank Williams Jr., Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, Chris Stapleton, Billy Strings, Ernest and others.

Val Blavatnik to Oversee Warner Music Canada in New Role at Warner Music Group

Blavatnik will oversee Warner Music Canada as managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at WMG. As part of a slew of executive announcements, Simon Robson will be leaving the company, while Alejandro Duque takes the top international role.

Val Blavatnik, the 28-year-old son of Warner Music Group majority owner and vice chairman Len Blavatnik, has been named managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at the Warner Music Group, the company announced Friday (Sept. 25). In his new role the younger Blavatnik, who has held several roles at the company in recent years, and has been a board member since 2023, expects to “unify and drive business and operational strategy across these markets while guiding the company’s investment strategy to support growth,” according to a press release.

The Blavatnik announcement is part of a flurry of new executive announcements that CEO Robert Kyncl made this morning. In addition, Atlantic Music Group chairman/CEO Elliot Grainge will take on ADA in the U.S. as its new chairman, while Alejandro Duque, who has held the dual roles of president of Warner Latin and president of ADA since last July, has been named president of Warner Music International, adding Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa under his oversight. (Duque will continue to oversee ADA outside the U.S.) Zach Friedman, currently COO at Atlantic Music Group, will add the title of vice chair of ADA U.S. to his resume.
