‘Sicko Mode’ has amassed 1.2 billion Spotify streams, while its video has reached 735 million YouTube views (and counting).
Lifted from Scott’s third album ‘ASTROWORLD,’ the track was named by Billboard as one of the ‘Songs That Defined the Decade.’
Some of its other accolades include nabbing two nominations at the 2019 GRAMMYs and having the distinct honor of being the first Hip-Hop song to spend at least 30 weeks in the Top 10 of the Hot 100.
PaYoLaaaaa🤪
The music industry is seriously a
Joke. Can we stop with all these fake certified songs and albums? Let me see the receipts. Show me
How many people PURCHASED.
Man it’s way too easy to go platinum and diamond in these streaming days
That crazy lol is so easy now
I’ve honestly never heard this song before….
How many actual sales though?
1.2Billion streams is equivalent to 8Million sold units which means it actually sold less than 2Million singles to get a Diamond certification. This streaming s**** is insane. I’m about to be a recording artist, it’s takes nothing to get these plaques nowadays
I guess get over it? It’s almost 2021 your pissed off comment isn’t gonna make streaming stop
I literally had to look up the song cause I’ve never heard it before. After hearing it I’m confused as to how it went diamond. Streaming ruined music 🤦🏻♂️
This streaming crap is bogus. It’s very easy to get a diamond award even if the sales aren’t that great.
Why does he look dead?
I had to look this song up to remember what is was
Gross. 🤮
Never heard this song EVER…..
