Sean Paul Scores First Diamond Certification W/ Sia Catchy Collabo

Sean Paul and Sia’s 2016 hit “Cheap Thrills” is now certified 11× Platinum, giving the dancehall icon his first Diamond record 25 years into his career.

The Jamaican dancehall king, Sean Paul, was seminal during our high school years. He was the soundtrack to school dances, proms, sports events — basically any moment that needed a little extra fire. His voice was everywhere, and honestly, it still is.

So it’s spectacular‑stupendous that here in 2026, 25 years after his emergence, the man continues to rack up achievements like it’s nothing.

Sean Paul — with the help of Sia on their smash 2016 collabo “Cheap Thrills” — just hit a massive milestone. The track is now officially certified 11× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, meaning it’s moved over 11 million units.

And here’s the kicker: It’s Sean Paul’s first‑ever Diamond certification. A quarter‑century into his career, and he’s still leveling up.

Bravo‑bravissima to the island mastermind music maker. A true legend who refuses to slow down.

Comment below — did you have a Sean Paul era too, or are you still in it?
