SZA has received a total of 11 new gold and platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

The TDE artist’s list of new plaques include a platinum certification for her latest album SOS, which has officially sold a million units just two months after its release. SZA also earned a 4x platinum plaque for “Good Days,” 2x platinum plaques for “Supermodel” and “I Hate You,” platinum plaques for “Go Gina,” “20 Something” and “Kill Bill,” as well as gold plaques for “Nobody Gets Me,” “Blind,” “Low” and “Shirt.”

She celebrated her achievements in an Instagram post, sharing photos of her from the 2023 GRAMMYs with a caption that read, “Last night was the first time I had a great time at an award show ! (Prolly cause I ain’t have to do shit but cheer my friends on + announce ppl I Stan lmao) my team also surprised me w a GANG OF PLATINUM and gold plaques for SOS[.] can’t believe the album is already eligible for double platinum. LOVE TO EVERYBODY THAT GOT ME HERE AND CONTINUES TO LIFT ME UP. I love you.”

SOS dropped in early December and marked her first album in five years. The record featured guest appearances from Don Toliver, Phoebe Bridgers, Travis Scott and the late Ol’ Dirty Bastard, and peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for seven consecutive weeks.

Elsewhere in music, JAY-Z opened up about why he believes Beyoncé’s RENAISSANCE deserved to win Album of the Year at the 2023 GRAMMYs.
