According to Chart News, Lil Wayne‘s “How To Love” single off his Tha Carter IV album has reached triple Platinum status. This means that the song has sold over 3 million copies this week in digital sales from when it was first released on May 27th, 2011.

Even though “How To Love” was hated on by most of the hip-hop community, you can’t deny that this track had a great message behind it. It is also the second highest selling single by Weezy F Baby – behind “Lollipop” which is currently five times Platinum.

After a successful night at the 2012 MTV VMAs on Thursday, Young Money carry on winning by picking up three awards at BMI’s 2012 Urban Music Awards last night. Lil Wayne and Drake both won an award for “Songwriter Of The Year“, while Nicki Minaj‘s “Super Bass” was named “Song Of The Year“.

The awards show took place at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills, California, but Weezy, Drizzy and Nicki did not attend. However, the YMCMB General Birdman was in attendance and picked up the awards on their behalf, which would explain why he was absent from the VMAs.

The songwriter credits that helped Tune and Drake pick up the awards were: “She Will“, “6 Foot, 7 Foot“, “Look At Me Now“, “How To Love“, “Motivation“, “Aston Martin Music“, “Headlines“, “What’s My Name?“, and “Moment 4 Life“.

Lil Wayne‘s “How To Love” music video has been nominated for “Best Video With A Message” at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards, which will take place live at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, at 8PM EST on September 6th. The other category Weezy received a nomination in was “Best Hip-Hop Video” for his and Drake‘s “HYFR (Hell Ya Fuckin’ Right)” visual.

Congratulations Tune
