Last night, Bryson Tiller made his late night television debut on Late Night with Seth Meyers. With T R A P S O U L being a platinum selling project, he’s kind of doing it backwards with the promotion – but it still works! Watch young Pen Griffey perform his hit song “Exchange” below. A music video is reportedly on its way as well!
Bryson Tiller’s ‘TRAPSOUL’ Is Officially PLATINUM!
Just last week, Bryson Tiller took to Instagram to reveal that his debut album, TRAPSOUL, had officially gone gold. This means that since its release in October 2015, it had sold and/or streamed over 500,000 copies. Turns out, he was sharing the news over a month late, and now there’s an even bigger update: TRAPSOUL is platinum! “so a few days ago, we told everyone that this album went Gold. They actually told me it went Gold a month or so ago but wanted me to wait until my Radio City Show to tell people,” Bryson began in an Instagram post today. “Well…. Right after the show they surprised me and told me that T R A P S O U L is officially a Platinum Album. words cannot explain how i feel. thank you if you bought this, you changed my life.” Wow, how amazing is that?! Congrats, Pen Griffey!
Bryson Tiller Celebrated The New Year & His Birthday With His First Top 10 Album
Bryson Tiller came out of nowhere in 2015, but he immediately developed a passionate fanbase. So much so, he was able to drop his debut album TRAPSOUL with relatively no promotion or airplay on October 17, and after debuting at number 11, it’s remained in the top 40 ever since. Closing out a week that included his 23rd birthday and the New Year, Bryson had yet another reason to celebrate – the album finally hit the top 10! On the Billboard 200 charts for the week ending Dec. 31, 2015, the album moved a solid 53k units, securing Bryson’s spot at number 10. Congrats! Check out the full top 10 on the Billboard 200 below!
