On October 27, 2026, CDRA went live again. SETTWOR created the project in 2025, and over time it was put on pause. Since then he has improved the site, revised the number of streams required for each award, and changed the design completely. Work on the project continues.[1]
CDRA stands for Certified Digital Release Award. It is a set of awards for reaching a certain number of streams. The site states that this is the project’s own award, not an official certification by any record industry organization.
The count includes all streams of all time, across all platforms combined. SETTWOR checks every figure by hand, using his own stream verification system.
Awards are given separately for a single, an album, and an artist, and each has its own thresholds.[2] For a single, Bronze is 250,000 streams, Silver 500,000, Gold 1,000,000, Platinum 2,000,000, Multi-platinum from 4,000,000, and Diamond 10,000,000. For an album, the same levels are 1,000,000, 2,500,000, 5,000,000, 10,000,000, from 20,000,000, and 50,000,000. For an artist, they are 2,500,000, 5,000,000, 10,000,000, 20,000,000, from 40,000,000, and 100,000,000.
The system is built on simple proportions. Album thresholds are about five times higher than single thresholds, and artist thresholds are ten times higher. Silver is always exactly half of Gold.
Three awards have been issued for the single GOT ME UP 2: Bronze (250,000) on May 1, 2025, Silver (500,000) on July 22, 2025, and Gold (1,000,000) on February 22, 2026. The album GET IT, Vol.1 received Bronze (1,000,000) in winter 2026. SETTWOR as an artist received Bronze (2,500,000) in October 2026.
The site lists five awards in total, and each one has its own page.
