Chiddy Bang goes platinum in Australia

About two months ago, while the boys were on still on their “Swelly Life Tour,” they were rewarded with news that they had gone platinum in Australia.  For those that don’t know, platinum in Australia means selling over 70 thousand records, whereas in the United States platinum is selling one million.  Chiddy Bang did just that with their “Opposite Of Adults EP.”  Earlier this month, Chidera spoke with Luna Magazine about the accomplishment.

It feels really really good. I want to go over there now and see what they are all talking about. I want to see what’s happening there. I keep hearing about Australia and how stoked and amped you guys are about the music. It really is very humbling, makes you want to keep going harder. We always have this joke that when everything fails in America, we will just move down to Australia.

Looks like Chiddy Bang has responded to the fans yet again.  They are currently touring in Australia, rocking the Parklife stage with the likes of Missy Elliot and Darwin Deez.  As for now, I’ll leave you with a picture that Chiddy tweeted from their trip to the land of Oz.  So swelly.

    Yes in America, but platinum in Australia is actually 70,000 units.
