Kanye West can add another platinum record to the wall and another "first" to his trophy case. "The Life Of Pablo" has gone platinum, the first album to reach that status through streams.
The milestone, first reported by Pitchfork, was confirmed to Mashable by a spokesperson for the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on Tuesday afternoon. The RIAA also gave Kanye a shoutout on a platform he knows all too well: Twitter.
