05/19: Billboard: Diddy/Dirty Money's "Coming Home" Certified 2x Platinum
It was only a month ago when
Dirty Money's "Coming Home" was certified Platinum by the RIAA, marking 1 million units sold in the United States.
According to the
Billboard charts released today, "Coming Home" has now been certified at 2x Platinum, confirming 2 million units sold in the U.S.
This is exceptionally meaningful. There have been only 3 singles released by Bad Boy that have been certified at 2X Platinum or higher: Diddy's "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" (2x) and "I'll Be Missing You" (3x) and Yung Joc's "It's Goin' Down" (3x). A multi-platinum certification is a big deal and this is underscored by the fact that, with all of the hits Bad Boy has had, there have only been four in the company's history.
Beyond the company, it's important for Diddy, as well. No one can take this away: "Coming Home" ranks among his biggest hits in a career of hits. "Coming Home" fits in nicely with the list of Diddy singles that have been certified by the RIAA, including "Hello Good Morning" (Gold), "Shake Ya Tailgeather" (Gold), "Satisfy You" (Gold),
"Come With Me" (Platinum), "Victory" (Gold), "Been Around the World" (Platinum), "I'll Be Missing You" (3x Platinum) and "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" (2x Platinum).
