Boity Makes History As She Reaches Platinum Status
Boity has made history by being the first female rapper to receive a platinum plaque for her breakthrough single ‘Wuz Dat’ featuring Nasty C.

When Boity broke into the music scene, many were struggling to accept her as a rapper. Hip Hop heads criticized her bars and writing abilities, concluding that she has a ghost writer. This came in 2018 when she dropped Wuz Dat and her verse was said to have been written by Nasty “because her bars were on point.”

Almost a year later, the track is still topping charts and the success of the song does not go unnoticed. Now, all the naysayers are singing Boity’s praises as she soars to greater heights.

Wuz Dat reached 3.4 million streams and is the fastest single by a female rapper to reach 1 million views.

The rapper was overjoyed when news broke and was not afraid to show it.
The Bakae rapper had a message for the ‘haters’ who are still not convinced.
Congratulations Boity!
