Blue Ivy Carter, JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s eldest daughter, has received two gold certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) at only 10 years old.

The first-born child of the Carters earned the two plaques after Beyoncé’s 2013 track “Blue,” which appeared on Beyoncé, and “Brown Skin Girl,” which appeared on The Lion King: The Gift, earned 500,000 units each. Blue Ivy is credited as a featured artist on “Blue” and a songwriter and vocal contributor on “Brown Skin Girl.”

Blue Ivy adds the plaques to her growing collection of achievements, which include a Best Music Video GRAMMY Award for “Brown Skin Girl” and the record for the youngest person to appear on the Billboard Hot 100 after Hov credited her on the track “Glory” just two days after her birth.

Elsewhere in music, The Game, M.I.A. and Megan Thee Stallion lead the week’s Best New Tracks.
