Yesterday for Lil Wayne‘s birthday (September 27th), the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) updated many new Wayne certifications.

Tha Carter III is now certified octuple Platinum, Tha Carter V is now certified double Platinum, and I Am Not A Human Being (which actually turned 12-years-old yesterday) is now certified double Platinum.

“Hustler Musik“, “Let It Fly” featuring Travis Scott, “Can’t Be Broken“, “I’m Single“, and “Dedicate” have all also now reached Platinum status. You can check out the full list of Weezy‘s new plaques for his singles after the jump below!

Trippie Redd recently shared his top 5 rappers of all time list to XXL and Lil Wayne was named as No. 1.

Explaining his reason as to why he named Tunechi in his list, Redd says it is because he listened to Tune‘s music the most and he made change okay with the face tattoos plus grills.

The Ohio music artist then revealed his top 3 favorite albums of all time, which included 2 projects from Weezy – Tha Carter III and Tha Carter IV. You can check out everything Trippie had to say after the jump below!

It’s about time! Lil Wayne‘s team have finally updated his certifications with the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

I have listed the new Tunechi plaques for his albums and singles after the jump below. With “Lollipop” now being at 8x Platinum, I think it has a huge chance to be Tune‘s very first Diamond record.

PS: There has also been an image going around on social media with these new Weezy RIAA certifications, but there are 3 mistakes on it. I don’t know about you, but I hate how people rush to create things for likes and retweets without focusing on getting the correct information first. Then people will retweet without getting the facts themselves and spread more fake news around!

Finis “KY” White recently sat down with Kentucky To The World for an interview, which you can watch below.

During their conversation, KY revealed how he first engineered for Lil Wayne after acting as an intern and mentioned that during the 2-3 years he worked with Wayne, they did nearly 16-hour studio sessions every day.

The multi-platinum engineer also added he is a “big” Tunechi fan and listed the Tune projects that he has worked on: Tha Carter III, Tha Carter IV, Rebirth, No Ceilings, Dedication 3, Dedication 4, I Am Not A Human Being, and I Am Not A Human Being II!

According to Chart Data, Lil Wayne has officially surpassed 100 million units across his albums, singles and features as certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

This amazing milestone and achievement now means Weezy joins other rappers who have also topped 100 million RIAA units, which includes Drake, Eminem, and Nicki Minaj.

Congratulations to Tunechi on making even more history! However, I must point out that Tune (or his team) have not updated his RIAA certifications in a good while, so I’m sure he has sold a lot more than 100 million.
