BEERBONGS AND BILLIONS

Post Malone's Beerbongs & Bentleys (Republic), which dropped on Friday (4/27), has become eligible for platinum certification upon release, with a project total of 850k, just based on previously released tracks "rockstar, "Psycho" and "Candy Paint," which together have notched 1 billion streams and 1.7m track sales.

If you add in the 450m video streams the two songs have earned, the total zooms to 1.1m for RIAA platinum certification.

How big will the 18-song set, which was A&R'd by Rob Stevenson and Tyler Arnold and boasts guest spots by Swae Lee, Nicki Minaj and G-Eazy, among others, get? Stay tuned. Beerbongs sat at #1 at iTunes within hours of its release.
