From gold to platinum in just four months. BigXthaPlug marks one of the biggest milestones of his career.

The Texas rap heavyweight just revealed that his album TAKE CARE has earned platinum status from the RIAA, marking over one million copies sold.

BigXthaPlug at premiere of Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, 2024BigXthaPlug reflected on how creating his platinum-certified album became one of the most difficult periods of his life. He faced deep struggles with his purpose, his goals, and even his will to continue, as depression and the rapid pace of his career began to overwhelm him.

For the first time as an artist, he poured all of those emotions into his music. He credited his team for standing by him, understanding the personal weight of the project, and ultimately helping not only to make the record but to save his life.

In less than a year, without features or a major label, the album went platinum—a milestone he shared in gratitude with his supporters.

His upcoming album I Hope You’re Happy is set for release in one week. His latest single Hell at Night with Ella Langley is surging on Spotify, landing at No. 2 on the platform’s U.S. Song Debut chart this week.
