Cardi B has made history after officially receiving her third diamond-certified record for hit-track “I Like It.”

Not too long ago, the artist was celebrating her second diamond-certified record for her Maroon 5 song “Girls Like You.” Now, Cardi B has received her third diamond plaque, becoming the first female rapper to earn this feat. The track features Reggaetón stars J Balvin and Bad Bunny. To celebrate the moment, Cardi B took to Instagram to discuss her milestone. She wrote, “My album came out in 2018 and it’s still breaking records. I have a solo diamond record, a feature diamond record and now ANOTHER diamond record from a collab with 2 people that I look up to and love so much, @jbalvin & @badbunnypr. I remember like it was yesterday when this song went #1 and now it’s Diamond. I honestly just can’t believe this is happening! I’m so proud to have two songs off my debut album go Diamond. I hope I can achieve the same or even better on my next one. Thank you everyone that has supported and loved this record.”

She also added that “I Like It” propelled her relationship with Balenciaga and “is the record that gets me the most coin since it’s requested for commercials and brands all the time.” Her partner Offset, who is one-third of Migos also congratulated her writing in a now disappeared Instagram Story post, “She ain’t the one to play with, another diamond record, 1, 2, 3 of them actually, everybody doubted at first and you continue to prove em all the way wrong @iamcardib.”

Take a look at Cardi B’s Instagram celebration post below.
