    • The RIAA gives diamond certifications to songs that have gone platinum 10 times.
    • Over 150 songs have been certified diamond, and 38 artists have multiple songs on the list.
    • Drake has the most with 10, followed by Post Malone with 9. Rihanna and The Weeknd have 7 each.

    The official diamond award was unveiled by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 1999. In the years since, it has been bestowed sparingly — if a song has moved at least 10 million equivalent units by combining sales and streaming numbers and if an artist or label requests certification.
