Shenseea Certified Gold In The US With Kanye West’s ‘Ok Ok Pt 2’ Song
Shenseea has secured her first gold certification in the United States since her emergence onto the musical radar.
The accolade came courtesy of the Jamaican singer’s effort on Kayne West’s song “Ok Ok Pt.2”, which also featured Chicago drill rapper Rooga.
The single has sold over 500,000 copies, according to figures from Billboard’s music sales tracker Luminate.
“Ok Ok pt 2” is a remix of “Ok Ok”, the eighth track on Kayne West’s tenth studio album “Donda.” In this version, Shenseea replaced rapper Lil Yachty on the second verse. The 25-year-old also contributed to “Pure Souls,” featuring Roddy Ricch off the 27 tracklist album.
