The Billboard plaques continue to be a benchmark of commercial success and cultural recognition across the music industry, honoring artists whose releases chart on the Billboard rankings. These accolades often serve as a tangible symbol of growth, impact, and momentum in an artist’s career.
Rapper 8 Zipp recently took to Instagram to celebrate receiving his first Billboard plaque for “Invisible,” his collaboration with Massachusetts rapper Millyz. Sharing a photo of himself holding the plaque, 8 Zipp wrote: “Plaque Boy Zipp🏆🍾 #8zipp #Millyz #Invisible. Coming from where I came from, this is a achievement that should be motivation to the dedicated artist all over🍀 #BILLBOARD.” The post was accompanied by a photo captured by Justbesnappin.
In a follow-up message, the rapper reflected on the broader meaning behind the milestone, writing: “Some people love it. Some people hate it. BUT YOU WILL RESPECT IT‼️🍀🏆 #8zipp #Millyz. We can all have many plaques if we support each other, if we are dedicated and if we stick to the plan which is PUT OUR CITY ON‼️ It’s that time y’all.”
The plaque commemorates the Billboard recognition of “Invisible,” which has gained traction since its release through streaming and digital performance. The achievement marks a key moment for 8 Zipp as he continues building a name within the regional and national hip-hop landscape.
No official statements have been made about what’s next from 8 Zipp or if a new project is in the works, but the artist’s recent posts suggest that momentum is building—and that the focus remains on shining a spotlight on his city and its talent.
