Country hits that hit diamond status

Not every song goes Diamond, and in country music, it’s a seriously rare flex. From breakup ballads to boot-stompin’ bangers, only a chosen few have crossed the 10-million mark.

These 14 tracks didn’t just top charts, they rewrote the rules. Let’s dive into the elite club of country songs that struck pure Platinum gold… times ten.

“In Case You Didn’t Know”

This heartfelt love song had the entire country scene swooning when it hit radio in 2017. It was Brett Young’s first No.1 on the Country Airplay chart, and fans clearly couldn’t get enough of it.

Fast-forward to March 2024, this tender ballad officially went Diamond. That’s 10 million units sold, streamed, and cherished across the U.S. A modern wedding favorite turned record-breaking anthem.

“What Ifs”

Kane Brown teamed up with his childhood friend Lauren Alaina for this fiery duet, and it quickly became a game-changer. “What Ifs” shot to No.1 on both of Billboard’s country charts in 2017 and never looked back.

The two wowed the crowd with an ACM Awards performance, boosting the song’s momentum. It hit Diamond status in Feb. 2025, making Kane one of the few artists with more than one on this elite list.

“She Got the Best of Me”

Luke Combs dropped this emotional track as a bonus cut on This One’s For You, but fans turned it into a smash. It climbed straight to No.1 on the Country Airplay chart, his fourth in a row at the time.

Fast-forward to today, and it’s now his newest Diamond-certified hit. Ten million units later, this heartbreak anthem proves Combs always gives fans the best of him.

“Meant to Be”

This pop-country crossover took over the airwaves in 2017 and made chart history. Bebe Rexha and Florida Georgia Line’s smooth collab became a streaming giant and radio darling.

By 2020, “Meant to Be” had gone Diamond, and as of June 2025, it’s 11X Platinum. It even became the most-streamed country song ever on Spotify. Talk about meant for greatness.

“Wagon Wheel”

Originally by Old Crow Medicine Show, this road trip anthem got a mega boost when Darius Rucker released his soulful spin in 2013. His version turned into a country music staple and crowd favorite.

“Wagon Wheel” hit Diamond status in 2022 and cruised past 11 million sales by June 2025. It’s Rucker’s biggest hit ever, and one of country’s most beloved singalongs.

“Heaven”

Released in 2017, “Heaven” became the romantic slow jam that shot Kane Brown straight to the top. It hit No.1 on Country Airplay in 2018 and earned him massive crossover love.

“Hurricane”

“Hurricane” blew the doors wide open for Luke Combs when it dropped as his debut single. It stormed up to No.1 on the Country Airplay chart and stayed there for two solid weeks.

Nearly ten years later, in August 2024, it was certified Diamond. By June 2025, it reached 11 million units, making Combs the only country artist with four Diamond songs.

“Body Like a Back Road”

This flirty 2017 smash didn’t just top the charts, it rewrote them. Sam Hunt’s biggest hit held the No.1 spot on Hot Country Songs for a jaw-dropping 34 weeks, beating even “Cruise” by Florida Georgia Line.

“When It Rains It Pours”

Luke Combs turned post-breakup blues into pure gold with this witty anthem from his debut album. It became his second No.1, topping both the Country Airplay and Hot Country Songs charts.

Certified Diamond in August 2024, it reached 12 million units by mid-2025. With over a billion Spotify streams, Combs proves that even bad luck can lead to record-breaking success.

“Cruise”

“Cruise” wasn’t just a debut, it was a revolution. This 2012 breakout hit helped launch Florida Georgia Line into superstardom and quickly became the best-selling digital track by a country duo.

With a Nelly remix heating up the charts, “Cruise” hit Diamond in 2016, the first country song ever to do so. As of June 2025, it’s cruised all the way to 14 million sales.

“Beautiful Crazy”

This swoon-worthy hit took over country playlists after landing on Combs’ debut album in 2017. It spent 11 weeks at No.1 and even won Song of the Year at the 2019 CMA Awards.

Combs danced to it at his own wedding, now that’s love. Certified Diamond in June 2023 and 14X Platinum by 2025, “Beautiful Crazy” also crossed a billion streams on Spotify.
