Post Malone may have had a very successful career in the music industry in recent years, but he recently noted that he had a tragic childhood as he would often get bullied for his "weirdo" persona when he was younger.

The musician recently sat down with Alex Cooper for her "Call Her Daddy" podcast where he gave fans an insight into the early days of his life.

Growing up in upstate New York, the rapper revealed that he's always been an introverted kid and the only way he expressed himself was through music. In addition, the rapper, who got his stage name from a rap name generator when he was a kid, also loved playing games.

He moved when he was nine years old and people would often pick on him in school.

"I guess for dressing the way I did. We wore skinny jeans and all that stuff, and that was just kind of like a new deal. I don't know. And people'd throw gum in my hair... Kids are mean," he explained. (via Billboard)
