Rihanna Achieves Historic Milestone as Four Songs Earn RIAA Diamond Status

Rihanna's "Diamonds" are now shining brighter than ever, signifying a remarkable milestone in her stellar career. 

The Barbadian superstar recently earned two significant certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA): Most Diamond Singles for a Female Artist and Most Diamond Certified Titles for a Female Artist. 

These impressive achievements are particularly notable given that the 9-time Grammy winner hasn't released a new album since her 2016 project, "Anti".
