Jason Aldean has officially reached a career-defining milestone. The country superstar just received his first two RIAA Diamond certifications, honoring“You Make It Easy”and“Dirt Road Anthem.”Each song has now achieved the equivalent of 10 million units sold or streamed.

To celebrate the Diamond achievement, Aldean is releasing a limited-edition“The Diamond Collection”vinyl on November 20. Fans can also grab three of his albums on vinyl for the first time ever starting September 18, giving collectors a fresh way to own a piece of country music history.
Aldean credits the fans for the songs’longevity.“These songs have taken on a life of their own because of the fans,”he said. With a sold-out tour, new vinyl releases, and now Diamond status, it’s clear Jason Aldean’s music is only getting bigger. Which of his songs would you love to see hit Diamond status next?
