As Doja Cat‘s fans, affectionately called #Kittens, impatiently wait for the first single from her forthcoming album ‘First of All,’ they are seemingly biding their time by spinning her older jams in major fashion.
So much so, the tunes are being elevated in the rankings of the record books of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
See how inside.
The RIAA took to press Tuesday (May 9) to publish news ‘Boss B-tch,’ Doja’s contribution to the ill-fated, 2020-released ‘Birds of Prey’ soundtrack, had crossed its threshold for double Platinum certification. This measure denotes sales equivalence of 2 million in the United States.
Coming as the 10th song of the GRAMMY winner’s career to be certified as high or higher, the ascent puts her in the unique position of tying Cardi B for most multiPlatinum hits ever by a female rapper.
With the upgrade of ‘Boss,’ Doja’s cumulative digital single sales now sits at 43 million – making her one of the most successful female acts of the era.
The news comes merely months after the ‘Say So’ hitmaker saw her name printed in RIAA record books for surpassing Nicki Minaj and becoming the female rapper with the most Gold-certified hits in history.
