According to Renee Brown, a single mother and bartender at The Railyard bar in Houston, Texas, rapper Post Malone channeled his inner Kris Kringle, gifting her an enormous tip on a day that started out unusually to begin with.
Renee Brown, a 29-year-old single mother to a nine-year-old daughter, was serving drinks at The Railyard when the Hip-Hop/Rock star, whose real name is Austin Post, walked into the bar. While the visit alone was memorable, it became life-altering when the musician handed her a massive tip. Brown explained that the money would help her catch up on rent, buy a reliable way to get to work, and even start saving for a future business venture.
Though overwhelmed by the heartwarming gift, Brown says it has inspired her to push forward after years of challenges. Just a day later, Post Malone delighted fans in another surprise appearance during Beyoncé’s halftime show at the Texans-Ravens Christmas Day game, where they performed their chart-topper “Levii’s Jeans.”
