Earli­er this year, Pop Smoke’s afore­men­tioned album became the best-selling album of the year so far.

The album, which has over 7 mil­lion units con­sumed world­wide, also reached the #1 spot on the Top Rap Albums chart and charted in the top five on the Bill­board 200 for 34 weeks, becom­ing only the fourth album this cen­tury to spend that many weeks in the top five.

Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon has launched three RIAA cer­ti­fied plat­in­um songs (“Hello,” “Got It On Me,” and “Some­thing Spe­cial”), two 2x plat­in­um songs (“The Woo” and “What You Know About Love”), two 3x plat­in­um (“Mood Swings” and “Dior”), and the 4x plat­in­um “For The Night.” “Dior” was also nom­in­ated for a GRAMMY for Best Rap Per­form­ance and, to date, Pop Smoke has amassed 20B streams world­wide and count­ing.

In cel­eb­ra­tion of FAITH, iHeartRa­dio will also launch The iHeart Radio Fea­ture 5 with Pop Smoke. The 25 minute show will fea­ture a num­ber of songs from the album along with audio from some of the fea­tured artists walk­ing fans through the mak­ing of the album.
