Burna Boy makes history

Burna Boy sets a new record as he becomes the first African artist ever to earn two platinum singles. This is after the African Giant’s hit record “Last Last” sold 1M units across the US, making it eligible for platinum certification by Recording Industry of America (RIAA). The track was released as the first single off his sixth studio album, Love, Damini.
