Beyoncé has now become the most RIAA-certified female artist of all time, with a record-setting 103 certified titles in her back catalog. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) made the historic announcement with an Instagram post on Tuesday (December 17). “We are so excited to recognize the incredible talent, hard work and creative spirit reflected across diverse genres,” RIAA President & COO Michele Ballantyne said in a statement. “Beyoncé’s iconic catalogue has earned the achievement of most certified titles for a female artist in RIAA’s history. Congratulations on this crowning milestone, Beyoncé.”
Among Beyoncé’s multiple RIAA-certifications are 2x-Platinum status for Renaissance, 4x-Platinum for Lemonade, and 7x Platinum for both Sasha Fierce and Dangerously In Love. Beyoncé has also just achieved her first Diamond-certified singles (for sales of 10 million units) for “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” and “Halo,” while her numerous platinum hits range from 2003’s “Me Myself and I” to 2024’s Grammy-nominated “Texas Hold ‘Em.” (Variety)
