JAY-Z‘s new “4:44″ album was only released lon Friday, June 30th, 2017, but the LP has already been certified platinum, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.
The music industry just recently started counting streams into Gold and Platinum album/single accomplishments, and for an album to go platinum, it has to have 1.5 Billion streams.
Pictured above is Hov and RIAA Chairman and CEO Cary Sherman with the plaque for the album. “Props to JAY, he’s done it again!” said Sherman in a statement. “Another Platinum album adds to an already iconic career.”
This is Hov’s 13th platinum album plaque, more than any other artist in RIAA history. He’s also the only rapper with 10 or more platinum albums to his name.
