Its been 4 months since its release, and now we can congratulate 2 Chainz on reaching gold status.Today, numbers came in showing 500,000 copies have been shipped for his first solo effort “Based On A T.R.U. Story”. He already has a plaque for “No Lie” ft Drake, just recently received a Grammy nod for ‘Best Rap Album’, and now he has a gold plaque under his belt. Def Jam is truly having an amazing year. Congrats to 2 Chainz and his entire team. [AlLindstrom]
