While it may be a bold declaration, DaBaby has earned his bragging rights. He received RIAA certifications for his hits including “Rockstar” (5x platinum), “Suge” (4x platinum), “Bop” (3x platinum), “Vibez” (2x platinum), and more.
DaBaby, along with Megan Thee Stallion, leads with seven nominations at the 2021 BET Awards, where he is nominated in categories including Best Male Hip Hop Artist and Album of the Year for Blame It on Baby.
And he’s not slowing down. He currently has a top 10 hit with his Dua Lipa collaboration “Levitating,” which sits at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
