Diamonds for Luke Combs

Luke Combs is making country music history. He's the first artist to achieve three certified Diamond country singles by the Recording Industry Association of America!  Combs was surprised with the news on Tuesday during his five-year anniversary appearance at The Grand Ole Opry. The songs “When It Rains It Pours” and “Hurricane” are the most recent Diamond certifications by the RIAA joining Combs’ “Beautiful Crazy” which was certified Diamond last year. A song reaches Diamond status after selling or streaming 10 million units. Combs leads in the Country genre, but Post Malone holds the record for the most overall diamond-certified songs with a whopping nine to his name.
