Post Malone and Swae Lee’s “Sunflower” Achieves Double-Diamond Certification
Post Malone’s knack for blending diverse genres and creating unique sounds has solidified his position as a versatile and immensely popular artist. One of his standout collaborations, “Sunflower,” with Swae Lee, exemplifies this talent. Originally featured on the soundtrack of the animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the song soared to unprecedented heights, spending a remarkable 33 weeks in the Hot 100’s top 10, including a stint at number one. With over 3 billion streams on Spotify, “Sunflower” has firmly secured its place among the platform’s most-streamed tracks.
The song recently achieved yet another milestone by becoming the first track to receive a double-diamond certification from the RIAA. This accomplishment adds to Post Malone’s impressive track record, as he previously broke the record for the most RIAA Diamond Certified singles earlier this year.
In addition to his musical achievements, Post Malone is set to perform “America The Beautiful” before the kickoff of the Super Bowl in Las Vegas this weekend. His performance adds to the lineup of stellar artists contributing to the event, which also includes Usher’s highly anticipated halftime show.
While Post Malone continues to celebrate musical triumphs, he also faced legal controversies last year. In September, his ex-girlfriend’s lawyers made allegations of abusive behavior, prompting legal action from Malone himself. He took legal measures against the lawyers for their public statements, asserting that they lacked substantial evidence to support their claims.
As “Sunflower” continues to captivate audiences and break records, its enduring popularity highlights the enduring appeal of Post Malone’s music. Do you still listen to “Sunflower”? Share your thoughts on this achievement in the comments below.
