Drake’s Latest Triumph: A Record-Breaking Milestone
In a dazzling display of musical prowess, Drake has added yet another monumental achievement to his stellar career. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced on Wednesday that the iconic rapper has secured his 10th Diamond certification, making him the most certified artist in history!
The RIAA took to social media to declare, "Drake has the most RIAA Diamond Certifications of any artist, ever! ‘Hold On, We’re Going Home’ and ‘Best I Ever Had’ have both reached Diamond status, elevating Drake to a remarkable total of 10 Diamond Certifications.”
What Does Diamond Certification Mean?
For those unfamiliar with the music industry's glittering awards, a Diamond Certification signifies that a song or album has sold over 10 million equivalent units in the United States. This isn't just a trophy; it's a testament to an artist's immense popularity and reach.
Drake's Unique Achievement
With this latest accolade, Drake becomes the first artist ever to achieve double-digit Diamond certifications across both singles and albums. This incredible feat sees him break a tie with country legend Garth Brooks, who boasts nine Diamond-certified albums, and Post Malone, with nine singles holding the Diamond status.
The world of music is undoubtedly witnessing Drake's reign, as he continues to redefine success and set new benchmarks in the industry!
