Offset has hit a major milestone in his career. The rapper celebrated his first-ever diamond single after Tyga’s hit song, “Taste,” sold over ten million units. Reacting to the achievement, Offset took to social media, sharing, “Went diamond today God is good,” along with a celebratory photo.
Tyga was equally ecstatic about the news, expressing his gratitude on social media: “Taste just went diamond 10x platinum.. Thank you to everyone that streamed it and twerked to it.” The song, a lead single from his 2019 album “Legendary,” peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100. It marked a significant resurgence for Tyga, who had been absent from the chart for three years. “Taste” is now the second highest-charting single of his career, just behind “Rack City.”
The music video for “Taste” also played a crucial role in its success. Featuring a star-studded lineup including 2 Chainz, Wiz Khalifa, Joyner Lucas, YK Osiris, Ronny J, and King Bach, the video added to the song’s popularity.
Fans and celebrities alike joined in the celebrations. “So well deserved! God’s plan always comes through in the best ways. Keep shining!” one fan wrote in response to Offset’s post. Another added, “How have you JUST NOW received your first one after ten years of stardom and it wasn’t even for Versace or Bad and Boujee that’s crazy congrats tho.” Meanwhile, Tyga shared a video of himself proudly posing with his diamond plaque, accompanied by EMPIRE CEO Ghazi and COO Nima Etminan.
In another exciting update, Tyga is currently opening for Nicki Minaj on her Pink Friday 2 World Tour, with upcoming dates in Kansas City, Miami, and her hometown of Queens, New York.
Offset’s and Tyga’s celebration of “Taste” going diamond marks a significant achievement in their careers. With Tyga’s ongoing tour and Offset’s milestone, both artists have plenty to look forward to. Stay tuned for more exciting updates from these stars.
