Melanie Fiona is kicking the year off with great news thanks to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

On Tuesday (January 11), the RIAA took to press to announce Fiona’s ‘It Kills Me’ – the second single from her debut album ‘The Bridge’ (2009) – had crossed its threshold for Platinum status, meaning it’s sold the equivalence of 1 million copies in the United States.
The Platinum plaque comes as a milestone for the now 38-year-old songstress as it’s her first single to be certified as high by the organization.
The latest accolade attributed to the Jay Fenix-produced song, ‘Kills’ is not only her biggest hit to date (giving her career peaks on the Hot 100 and R&B chart respectively) but it also nabbed her first GRAMMY nomination.
