ERNEST took the stage with a massive hit by Morgan Wallen and Post Malone during his performance on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2025.
“This is a song I got to write this past year with a couple good friends. This song’s called ‘I Had Some Help,’” ERNEST said as he kicked off a solo rendition of the collaboration. ERNEST is credited as a writer on the smash-hit single, along with Louis Bell, Hoskins, Austin Post (Post Malone), Ashley Corley, Chandler Walters, Charlie Handsome and Wallen.
Post Malone released the anthem with Wallen on F-1 Trillion, his highly-anticipated country album that arrived in August. The project also included collaborations with Blake Shelton, Luke Combs, Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, ERNEST and many others. “I Had Some Help” was the first single to release from Post’s album in 2024.
“I had some help/ It ain't like I can make this kinda mess all by myself/ Don't act like you ain't help me pull that bottle off the shelf/ Been deep in every weekend if you couldn't tell/ They say teamwork makes the dream work/ Hell, I had some help”
