Two weeks ago Post Malone, whose hits include Rockstar and Psycho, was on a private jet that took off from New Jersey heading for London.
During take-off two of the aircraft's tyres blew out forcing it to make an emergency landing in New York City.
The rapper was travelling to the UK to appear at Reading and Leeds festivals when the incident happened.
He tweeted, thanking people for their prayers but said he couldn't believe "how many people wished death on me on this website".
Emergency services were at the scene when the plane landed
Fans turned up at the airport and cheered when the jet, which was carrying 16 people, touched down.
His second album, Beerbongs & Bentleys, was released earlier this year and went to number one in the US.
It also broke several streaming records and went platinum within four days of release.
