Lil Nas X’s ‘Old Town Road’ Has Reached Diamond Certification

Lil Nas X has his second top 10 single with “Panini,” but that doesn’t mean “Old Town Road” isn’t done crushing records and stacking accolades.

The chart-topping and scene-stealing single has officially hit diamond certification by the RIAA. Diamond certification is provided to albums and singles that have sold a minimum of 10,000,000 units. The announcement of the achievement came from Columbia Records and is the fastest release to ever receive the certification in history.
