Tyga’s ‘Taste’ Becomes His First Diamond-Certified Record: ‘Thank You to Everyone That Streamed It & Twerked to It’

Tyga‘s 2018 summer smash “Taste,” featuring Offset, becomes his first diamond-certified record by the Recording Industry Association of America, the RIAA announced on Tuesday (Sept. 24).

Diamond certification is given to artists whose songs have moved 10 million units. According to the RIAA, one equivalent song unit is equal to a single digital song sale, or 150 on-demand audio and/or video streams.

“Taste just went diamond 10x platinum..Thank you to everyone that streamed it and twerked to it,” the rapper wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter) along with a video of him receiving his RIAA plaque and posing with it alongside EMPIRE CEO Ghazi and COO Nima Etminan. “Get a #Taste of your first RIAA Diamond certification! Congratulations @Tyga on this incredible milestone!” RIAA wrote on response.

Offset was also happy to hear the news. “Man this big to me,” he wrote in response to a chart data post on X, adding in his own post, “Went diamond today God is good.”

“Taste” was the lead single from Tyga’s 2019 album Legendary, released via Last Kings Music and EMPIRE. Produced by D.A. Got That Dope, the single peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, earning the rapper his third top 10 hit on the chart after his feature on Chris Brown‘s “Loyal” in 2014 and “Rack City” in 2012, and No. 7 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and topped Rhythmic Airplay for four weeks.

Tyga is currently supporting the second leg of Nicki Minaj‘s Pink Friday 2 World Tour.
