Drake Makes First Ever Diamond Certified Single With “God’s Plan”

Drake is undoubtedly the biggest rapper at the moment. He’s carved a niche that he’ll be forever remembered for as a rapper and singer.

Drake’s versatility is not what anyone can overlook. He recently made 3rd spot on the top 50 R&B singers of all time.

How ironic is that a rapper is being regarded as one of the best singers in the industry. That shows you the level of his vastness.

Drizzy already holds the record for most entries on the Hot 100 chart for a solo act with 205 songs. However, the Canadian’s “God’s Plan” may go down as the biggest hit of his career.

The Recording Industry Association of America RIAA has now certified the Scorpion track as 11x-Platinum. This gives Drake the first Diamond Award of his career.

“God’s Plan” is @Drake‘s first song to certified Diamond or higher in the US.

He joins Wiz Khalifa (“See You Again”), Eminem (“Lose Yourself,” “Not Afraid,” “Love The Way You Lie”), and Macklemore (“Thrift Shop”) as the only rappers to have a single move more than 10 million units.

Drake also recently earned new plaques for “Hotline Bling” (8x-Platinum), “In My Feelings” (5x-Platinum), “Started From The Bottom” (6x-Platinum), “One Dance” (8x-Platinum), “The Motto” (6x-Platinum), “Take Care” (5x-Platinum), and “Nice For What” (5x-Platinum).

With the new certifications, Drake’s lifetime total for digital singles units rises to 169. The OVO leader is the all-time top certified artist in the category. He is followed by Rihanna (125), Taylor Swift (121), Eminem (107.5), and Katy Perry (102).
