Plenty of artists will pay tribute to the King including Post Malone, Jennifer Lopez, Adam Lambert, Ed Sheeran, Alessia Cara, Shawn Mendes, Blake Shelton, Josh Groban, Carrie Underwood, and Keith Urban, who personally requested a duet with Post Malone for the song “Baby What You Want Me to Do”, and Post was all over it.
