\n\tPost Malone<\/a>\u2018s next collaboration isn\u2019t with a viral country star, pop singer or a hitmaker producer. It\u2019s with Elmo and friends!<\/p>\n

\n\tThe genre-blending artist is heading to Sesame Street<\/a> as a special guest in Storm on Sesame Street, a new special premiering Monday, Aug. 3, on Netflix and PBS KIDS, Sesame Workshop announced on Thursday (July 30). Comedian Michelle Buteau is also participating in the special, which follows Elmo, Abby Cadabby and the rest of the neighborhood as they prepare for a major storm before coming together to help rebuild their community in its aftermath.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs part of the special, Post Malone sings \u201cA Little Help,\u201d an upbeat song about banding together to rebuild the neighborhood. In a video clip released Thursday, Elmo thanks the musician for showing up to lend a hand, to which Posty responds that he\u2019s \u201chappy to do it\u201d before launching into the song.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe can go through something hard\/ But I know we\u2019ll make it through\/ \u2018Cause you will always be there for me and I\u2019ll be there for you!\/ Oooh your kindness and compassion\/ I see them shining through,\u201d the Grammy-nominated artist croons in the catchy song as various muppets and humans work together to clean up Sesame Street. \u201cA little help\/ A little help\/ A little help is all it takes to make our street a better place.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Storm on Sesame Street is part of Sesame Workshop\u2019s new Extreme Weather response initiative, which aims to help children and families prepare for and recover from increasingly common extreme weather events. Alongside the special, the nonprofit will offer free resources in Spanish and English that include family guides and activities designed to help young viewers understand emergencies and navigate the emotions that may come with tragedies.<\/p>\n

\n\tMalone\u2019s appearance adds another bullet to his resum\u00e9, alongside his successful musical career. Most recently, he reached No. 1 on Billboard\u2019s Hot 100 <\/a>with his track \u201cI Had Some Help\u201d featuring Morgan Wallen<\/a> in 2024. Notably, he has charted the Billboard 200<\/a> with his albums beerbongs & bentleys, Hollywood\u2019s Bleeding, and his first country album F-1 Trillion.<\/p>\n

\n\tRather than taking the center stage, Malone \u2014 who shares a young daughter with his former fianc\u00e9e \u2014 is entering Sesame Street\u2018s famously neighborly world to reinforce the special\u2019s central message of compassion. Watch him and the residents of Sesame Street offer helping hands to their community when Storm on Sesame Street premieres Monday, Aug. 3, before arriving on YouTube in September.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Post Malone\u2018s next collaboration isn\u2019t with a viral country star, pop singer or a hitmaker producer.
