During hisWild Horses Festivalheadlining set at Petco Park in San Diego, the “I Had Some Help” musician revealed the two artists he couldn’t get enough of in 2024.

Addressing the crowd, Malone, 29, first clarified he’s an Apple Music user and usually doesn’t pay much attention to those things. This year, however, he decided to share that his top two artists were"George Strait"and"Zach Top."

After declaring his 2024 favorites, Malone introduced Top, 27, to the stage, and together they coveredVince Gill’s “Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away.”
