Here in Quebec, it's often said that rap is sidelined, almost as if it were a given. But at the same time, French rap has long been ignored by major institutions in France and Europe. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this, rap artists have managed to gain recognition and obtain important certifications, generally reserved for variety singers here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things changed radically in the 2010s, when rap became the most listened to music in France<\/strong>, the trend continued in Quebec<\/strong> and in many other places, not to say almost everywhere in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the advent of streaming, it seems that music certifications are pouring into the rap world. For some artists, earning a gold record<\/strong> remains an ultimate goal, but for others, dreams and ambitions are much bigger: now, success is measured in diamond discs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this game of success, French rappers have taken a considerable lead, but not all are on equal footing. Taking a look at the ranking of French rappers who have achieved the most diamond singles, we find at the top Ninho<\/a>, with an impressive total of 54 diamond-certified pieces<\/strong>. Right behind him, Damso ranks second with 34 certifications<\/strong>, closely followed by Jul<\/a>, the Marseille UFO, who has 25 diamond singles to his credit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nekfeu<\/a> has 20 certifications<\/strong>, Booba<\/a> has 19 diamond singles<\/strong>, Gazo<\/a> has 20<\/strong> and Niska<\/a> has 18.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an opportunity to realize the incredible performance of Ninho, who must have really started selling records in 2015<\/u><\/strong> and already has more than double the diamond singles of Booba<\/strong>, who nevertheless has a long career of 30 years behind him.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
