Saweetie is making room on her wall for yet another plaque from the Recording Industry Association of America – all ahead of her debut album.
Details inside:
Nearly five months after its debut, ‘Tap In’ – Saweetie’s Dr. Luke-produced bop that heavily samples iconic Too $hort 2006 hit ‘Blow the Whistle’ – has been certified Gold by the RIAA, denoting sales equivalence of 500,000 in the United States.
Initially branded a flop for struggling to stay aboard the Hot 100 over the summer, a viral Tik Tok challenge and a star-studded remix featuring Post Malone, DaBaby, and Jack Harlow (click here to listen) remedied that concern and helped the song eventually soar to #20 on the hitlist (as we reported here).
Becoming her highest charting song to date, its ongoing success underscores the increased excitement surrounding her long-awaited debut album (of which ‘Tap’ acts as the lead single).
She better hurry up and get pregnant because she is not going to pop off. She’s the 2020 rap version of Christina Milian. Chiiiile bye
