Chloe Bailey‘s official debut solo single, ‘Have Mercy,’ has her competitors still saying just that over four months after its debut.
Not only a mainstay in the top 10 of R&B charts since its September unveiling, the Murda Beatz-produced bop is also one of the year’s most enduring Urban hits on Pop charts – notching its 18th week of placement on the tally this week.
Its ongoing success got the ultimate toast recently, however, when the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) took to press to announce the tune had become her first solo certified hit.
More inside:
As fans of the burgeoning diva anxiously await her solo debut album, its lead single – ‘Have Mercy’ – is racking up major love on streaming and digital download outlets.
So much so, the RIAA’s reported the song crossed its threshold for Gold status (meaning it’s sold the equivalence of 500,000 units in the United States alone).
While the award comes as Chloe’s first as a solo act, she’s no stranger to recognition from the RIAA. As reported here, she previously collected two plaques from the organization (a Gold and Platinum award) – both bestowed to the 2020 hit ‘Do It‘ performed with her sister as part of the group Chloe x Halle.
