Dancehall superstar Shenseea has earned her second solo UK certification after her 2019 hit “Foreplay,” produced by Rvssian, was officially certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).

The certification, awarded on November 13, recognizes the track for surpassing 200,000 units in combined sales and streams in the United Kingdom, marking another milestone for one of her biggest crossover hits.

Produced by hitmaker Rvssian, “Foreplay” was recorded on his Beach Front Riddim, originally released in 2010, which featured tracks such as Vybz Kartel and Gaza Indu’s “Virginity” and Konshens’ “Pretty Devil.” Nine years later, Rvssian revisited the riddim with a slightly updated sound, giving Shenseea the opportunity to deliver her sultry single.

“Foreplay,” which has accumulated over 66 million streams on Spotify, becomes Shenseea’s second solo single to achieve Silver status in the UK, following “Shenyeng Anthem,” produced by Chimney Records, which received its certification in September 2024.

The Jamaican singer has enjoyed certification success with her appearance alongside Skillibeng on the remix of Moliy’s “Shake It to the Max,” which earned Platinum status in the UK.

The latest international milestone comes just a week after Shenseea released her new EP, Catalyst, as she continues to expand her presence in the global music market while maintaining her Dancehall roots.
