H.E.R. continues to rack up at the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
As the Academy & GRAMMY Award-winning superstar gears up to hit the road as the supporting act on ColdPlay‘s forthcoming world tour (followed by her own Stateside jaunt), she’s learned her hit song ‘Damage’ continues to do just that on streaming and digital sales platforms – over a year-and-a-half after its release.
On March 2, the RIAA took to press to announce ‘Damage’ – the Cardiak-produced lead single from H.E.R.’s debut album ‘Back of My Mind’ – had crossed the organization’s threshold for double Platinum status. This means it’s sold over 2 million copies in the United States.
The song already marks a milestone in the singer’s celebrated discography as it’s her highest-charting solo hit, but now – thanks to ongoing commercial attention – it celebrates another win as the fifth multi-Platinum hit of her career.
Its success follows her previously multi-certified hits ‘Focus’ (2x Platinum), ‘Best Part’ (5x Platinum), ‘Could’ve Been’ (2x Platinum), and ‘Slide’ (3x Platinum).
Coupled with her other RIAA-recognized releases, H.E.R.’s cumulative digital sales now sit at 20 million in the U.S.

Who?
🤣😂🤣I still dunno h.e.r 💅🏾
She selling out concerts, seems like she doesnt need your acknowledgement🥴
One word for her: Payola 💅🏾 Her filthy rich daddy back her up
Payola doesnt buy concert tickets. Either ppl want to see you live or they dont.
Imagine hating on someone as unproblematic as H.E.R, y’all lame💀
Damage was a great song, but what are her other multiplatinum hits??? Her album only did 34k first week….
It literally says what her other multiplatinum songs are in the post…..
They didnt include B.S with Jhene Aiko for some reason though
In general, I think it may be quite easy for artist to certify platinum and gold records, due to padded streaming numbers. I understand, its apart of their industry as artist have to promote themselves. No different then radio, shipping a certain amount of CDs to stores back in the day….
All these platinum hits but her album flopped. Her team buying awards and plaques. You can’t convince me otherwise. She’s overrated.
Her album charted for 29 weeks so far, not really bad considering the 1st week numbers
Payola does the magic, hunnie💅🏾 You are so naive about this music industry.
It can’t be payola when her songs ain’t charting. She sucking d*** and buying plaques.
Damage was #40 on Apple Music Year End for the top streamed songs of the year.
The Youtube music video is about to cross 100 million views
What are you talking about not charting?
And the album doesnt have payola. They didnt promote it after release week. It doesnt even have a physical copy to purchase yet💀
I said what I said! Does she even have a top 60 hit LMAO. Someone as decorated as her should have in the least a top 10 hit on the main chart. She even won an Oscar for a song nobody knows. She bought that s***. I hope the Filipino community is supporting her records as much as she reps them😭
The Black community is mostly supporting H.E.R……
Damage is still top 20 on Youtube in Detroit over a year after release.

🧐
Funny how you’re talking about flopping when your fave’s lead single is already out the top 50 on Hot 100 after 4 weeks. Maybe you should focus on that instead of hating on unproblematic musicians. It’s viral on Tik Tok & ppl still aint f****** with the song
When has any HER song hit top 50. DWHAP peaked at #2. 15 years in the game and ain’t slowed down. No smoke and mirrors or award purchasing necessary. HER is an underwhelming flop. Don’t come for the queen when your pauper fav couldn’t touch the hem of her garment. #34k
Damage peaked in the top 50, B.S and Slide also peaked top 50
Why you keep speaking on H.E.R’s career without even knowing💀
And clearly peaks dont even tell the whole story if a song peaks at #2 and falls to #51 by its 4th week lmao.
Underwhelming FLOP purchasing awards like I said!! Nicki can’t relate baby. We selling out festivals. HER touring high school cafeteria size venues. Several Grammys and an Oscar still can’t get her to arenas. You tried.
H.E.R has her own festival she headlines dumbass. It’s called Lights On Festival & it sells out in 24 hrs every year💀
Her regular tour dates has 5k to 7k capacity usually. That’s not Highschool cafeteria capacity 😂 Reply back to me when Nicki can go back on tour selling out arenas cuz her last one didnt fair out too good🥴
The most successful flop I ever seen
Her best song next to Focus !!!
Sometimes you have to clap and carry on!
Not a Nicki v HER Stan war lmaooo how random
