D.R.A.M. & Lil Yachty’s “Broccoli” Officially Earns 4x Platinum Certification

While media outlets have been referring to D.R.A.M.’s “Broccoli (featuring Lil Yachty)” as quadruple platinum since December, the RIAA website continued to label it as double platinum.

That changed this week, when the song’s listing was officially upgraded to quadruple platinum.

The RIAA says the certification was formally issued on February 3.

Under the terms of the RIAA’s digital singles program, the certification confirms 4 million in US units. Each unit is equal to 1 paid download or 150 streams.

“Broccoli” reached #1 at rhythmic and urban radio. It peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100.
