BLACKPINK Jennie Earns 4th RIAA Certification, a New Record

BLACKPINK Jennie has once again proven her solo power in the US music market, securing a new RIAA certification. On December 2, 2025, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced that her song ‘ExtraL (feat. Doechii)’ has officially been certified Gold, marking a significant milestone for the K-pop solo artist.

A Record-Breaking Achievement for a K-pop Solo Artist

This latest Gold certification for ‘ExtraL’ is not just another accolade; it establishes Jennie as the K-pop solo artist with the most RIAA certifications in history. With a total of four certified songs, she has set a new benchmark for Korean soloists in the competitive United States music scene. This achievement underscores her consistent popularity and commercial success stateside, demonstrating her powerful foothold in the industry.

A String of Certified Hits

Jennie’s journey to this record includes a series of successful releases that have resonated with American audiences. Her collaboration ‘One Of The Girls’ with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp previously achieved Platinum status, signifying over one million units sold. Before that, two other tracks from her Jennie solo album, ‘Mantra’ and ‘Like JENNIE’, also earned Gold certifications for selling over 500,000 units each. ‘ExtraL’ now proudly joins this prestigious list of accomplishments.

The Impact of Jennie’s Solo Album ‘Ruby’

The success of ‘ExtraL’ further highlights the massive impact of Jennie’s first solo studio album, ‘Ruby’. With ‘Mantra’, ‘Like JENNIE’, and now ‘ExtraL’ all receiving RIAA certifications, the album has demonstrated remarkable longevity and appeal in the US music market. This success is a testament to her artistic vision and global influence, placing her among the top-tier of global pop stars. Her individual success contributes to the wider narrative of K-pop’s global dominance, a trend also seen with groups like TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) who continue to break records.

Solidifying Her Presence in the US Music Market

Securing a fourth RIAA certification solidifies Jennie’s formidable presence in the world’s largest music market. As a member of BLACKPINK and as a solo artist, she continues to break barriers and set new standards for K-pop acts. This accomplishment is a clear indicator of her sustained relevance and the strong connection she has built with her international fanbase, particularly in the United States. As she continues to build her legacy, this record-breaking RIAA certification serves as a powerful statement of her influence and artistry.
