Drake basically tied with himself — talk about friendly competition.
Travis Scott and Drake just hit another incredible milestone together. Their 2018 hit “SICKO MODE” has officially been certified 16x platinum by the RIAA, making it the joint-second highest certified rap song in history. That’s right — the Houston anthem now shares its spot with Drake’s own “God’s Plan,” giving Drizzy two of the most decorated hip-hop records of all time.
When “SICKO MODE” first dropped on Travis Scott’s Astroworld album, it instantly stood out for its daring structure. The three-part production, courtesy of Tay Keith, Hit-Boy, OZ, and Cubeatz, transformed it into more than just a song — it was a full experience. From Drake’s calm intro to Travis’s chaotic switch-ups, the record blurred the lines between experimental and mainstream hip-hop, creating a sound that defined a generation.
Commercially, “SICKO MODE” was unstoppable. It topped the Billboard Hot 100, became a festival essential, and even earned Grammy nominations. Years later, the track continues to rack up streams and cultural moments, solidifying its status as a timeless banger.
Now, with both “SICKO MODE” and “God’s Plan” standing tall at 16x platinum, Drake and Travis Scott have further proven their dominance in modern rap history.
