Rapper Post Malone was involved in a car crash on the morning of Sept. 7 in West Hollywood, California.

Officials said that his white Rolls-Royce Wraith and another car appeared to be a “total loss,” NBC San Diego reported.

A new Rolls-Royce Wraith is worth about $320,000.

“First almost a plane, now almost a car,” he told a local news station, CBS News reported.

After the crash, rapper, who was born Austin Richard Post, also said, “Oh yeah, I’m fine.”

Sgt. Andrew Myers of the Beverly Hills Police Department said the Rolls Royce is owned by Malone. However, it was being driven by his assistant, and the rapper was a passenger, according to the NBC report.

No injuries were reported. No alcohol was involved the incident, according to reports.

Officials also found a wrecked Kia blocking the roadway and the Rolls-Royce crashed through the fence.

It was unclear what caused the crash. Since there were no injuries, the police department was not filing a traffic report, said police. “The parties involved will just exchange (insurance) information,” Beverly Hills police spokesman Andrew Myers said, Reuters reported.

A month ago, Post Malone was on a Gulfstream IV when the plane’s tires blew during takeoff from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. The plane was forced to circle airspace before landing at New York’s Stewart Airport.

“Thank you for your prayers. Can’t believe how many people wished death on me on this website,” the rapper said on Twitter, while using an expletive to insult people who wished death on him.
