Drake keeps breaking records like no tomorrow.
The Canadian rapper has now become the highest certified singles artist in history, amassing a massive 184 million in RIAA certifications as a lead act. The previous record was held by Eminem who became the highest certified singles artist at 166 million back in March when at the time, Drizzy was holding a figure of 163.5.
With more than 22 million new singles certifications, Drizzy has now comfortably overtaken Em. Among some of the notable new certifications are a Diamond plaque each for ‘One Dance’ and ‘Hotline Bling’, and 15x platinum award for the massive hit ‘God’s Plan.
