Even before the tragic death of Takeoff in November, chart-topping Rap group Migos had already called it quits as member Offset embarked on a solo career while Take joined forces with Quavo to form Unc & Phew.
And while the duo’s debut album, ‘Only Built for Infinity Links,’ has garnered a solid commercial response on charts to date, longtime fans – undeterred by the Migos split – seem to still be holding on to the trio’s biggest hits.
Evidence of that came via a slew of recently updated certifications at the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), a feat made possible thanks to impressive ongoing streams and digital sales of favorites from the group. Said figures were also given a boost due to supporters paying respects to Takeoff.
Look inside to see how the latest Gold and Platinum plaques attributed to the ‘Fight Night’ hitmakers see them knock Rap legends Beastie Boys and Outkast down a few notches in RIAA history books.
