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

This fourth RIAA certification solidifies JENNIE’s position as a trailblazer in the global music scene. Her collection of certified hits demonstrates a consistent and powerful connection with the American audience. Her first certification came from the hit collaboration ‘One Of The Girls’ with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp, which went Platinum. This was followed by Gold certifications for two tracks from her solo album, ‘Mantra’ and ‘Like JENNIE’. The addition of ‘ExtraL’ to this prestigious list underscores her unparalleled success and influence. The global rise of K-Pop, with groups like TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) also making significant waves, is further amplified by soloists like JENNIE who are setting individual records.

JENNIE’s first solo album, ‘Ruby’, has become a historic project in K-pop. With the latest news, three songs from the album have now earned an RIAA certification, a remarkable feat that sets a new milestone. The success of ‘Mantra’, ‘Like JENNIE’, and now ‘ExtraL (feat. Doechii)’ showcases the album’s widespread appeal and commercial strength. This achievement is a testament to the quality and impact of her solo work, proving that JENNIE is a formidable force both as a member of BLACKPINK and as a standalone artist. The consistent music chart success of her Jennie solo album tracks cements her status as a global pop phenomenon.

‘ExtraL’ and its Gold RIAA Certification

The Gold certification for ‘ExtraL (feat. Doechii)’ is a significant indicator of its popularity in the competitive U.S. market. As a pre-release track, its success built immense anticipation for the full ‘Ruby’ album. The collaboration with American rapper Doechii was praised for its unique sound and dynamic energy, contributing to its strong performance. Achieving an RIAA certification is a major accomplishment that reflects substantial sales and streaming figures, and JENNIE continues to raise the bar for what a K-pop solo artist can achieve on the world stage.
