As they say, kings do king-like things…
And George Strait has proven yet again why he’s the King.
The RIAA has handed out a ton of certifications for country singles here recently, and Strait racked up a whopping 18, with Chris Stapleton behind him with 10.
Eric Church also received three certifications, with “Like a Wrecking Ball,” “Smoke a Little Smoke,” and “Cold One.”
It’s pretty wild to see Strait still topping the country music world, considering he’s been arguably the biggest name in the industry for the past 40-plus years.
