DJ KHALED CELEBRATES FIRST DIAMOND PLAQUE: 'GOD IS THE GREATEST!'

DJ Khaled has reached a major career milestone - and he has the plaque to prove it.

On Thursday (December 5) Khaled posted to Instagram that his 2017 single "I'm the One" with Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance The Rapper and Lil Wayne had been certified Diamond by the RIAA, for sales of 10 million units. This is Khaled's first-ever Diamond plaque.


"ALERT ! @wethebest IM THE ONE OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED DIAMOND. GOD IS THE GREATEST! Bless up," he wrote, while sharing video of a ceremony announcing the certification to a crowd.

"I'm the One" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart upon its release.

The track marked the first #1 for Lil Chano and Quavo as a soloist, while Bieber earned his fourth and Weezy his third. The song snatched the crown from Bruno Mars, whose "That's What I Like" single enjoyed a week at the top.

Back in May, Khaled got another major prize: he was honored with his own day in Miami for his contributions to music and the local community.

The We The Best mogul posted a video on Instagram on May 8 of himself accepting the award and said: "Thank you to North Miami Beach and all miami for this incredible honor!

"May 8th is officially DJ Khaled Day! Thank you 305! I'm inspired and I hope to inspire the next generation! Love! @wethebestfoundation @wethebest. Love is the only way."

While accepting the award on stage, Khaled added: "This is very beautiful and means a lot to me and my family. Big ups to all the mothers and fathers in the building today. This makes me inspired to keep going."
