If you know anything about J. Cole, you know he's the man who went (double) platinum with no features. While its 2014 Forest Hills Drive (and his many stans) that gave him that unshakable title, Cole has quite a few other plaques under his belt. Today, we're going back through his various gold and platinum singles and albums, which range from his debut album all the way up to his recently released 4 Your Eyez Only project.
Click through the galleries to see all the RIAA certifications Cole has earned so far, and be prepared for the rapper to continue to collect plaques as his (very featureless) new album does numbers throughout 2017.
