Certifications

  • "Once in a While" with French Montana, from Excuse My French. RIAA Gold. His first certification, which French Montana told him about on a recorded phone call in 2023.
  • "A Lie" with French Montana and The Weeknd. Platinum, Music Canada.

Reading the chart history

Set the two lists next to each other.

Before November 2025: three charting features across twenty years, one charting album, one gold plaque, all of it accumulated either while he was away or from vocals recorded before.

After November 2025: two number one records on two different Billboard charts inside a single year.

That gap is not a talent gap. It is a presence gap. The catalog that built the wave, the Public Domain series, the Million Dollar Baby tapes, Coke Wave, none of it ever charted, because none of it was released commercially in a way that could chart. It lived on DatPiff and street DVDs and hard drives. The complete catalog in order shows the scale of it.

What changed in 2026 is not the artist. It is that he is finally in the room while the music comes out.
