Joey Bada$$ & J. Cole

A little over a week into the year 2017 and J. Cole and Joey Bada$$ have some plaques to put on their wall. Cole’s latest album, 4 Your Eyez Only, is RIAA-certified as Gold with an achievement of 500,ooo copies sold, while Joey has his first Gold single with “Devasted.”

4 Your Eyez only officially released at the tale end of 2016 and nearly went Gold in a week with 492,000 copies sold in the first week. The achievement is no longer is now officially checked off and appears it will elevate further as popularity rises.

Elsewhere in hip-hop, The Pro Era leader Joey Bada$$ receives his gold plaque for the single that has been buzzing for just about a year. “Devastated” found it’s way to the radio and became a favorite among fans. There will be more on the way from him this year in the form of an album A.A.B.A.

Congrats to both of these artists and their golden achievements.
