Tobymac & Blessing Offor Earn RIAA Gold for "The Goodness"

The collaborative single "The Goodness" by Christian music artists Tobymac and Blessing Offor has been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The certification, dated November 6, 2025, recognizes 500,000 units in the United States. The digital single was released via Forefront Records and Capitol Cmg.

Released on June 3, 2022, "The Goodness" was Tobymac's first original single of that year and his first collaboration with fellow contemporary Christian artist Blessing Offor. The chart-topping track was featured on Tobymac's album Life After Death. Thematically, the song acts as a follow-up to singles released after his 2018 album The Elements, fulfilling a sense of hope and comfort that was promised in earlier tracks like "Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)" and "Promised Land."

Tobymac, born Toby McKeehan, is a Grammy and Dove Award-winning artist who first gained fame as a member of the influential Christian rap and rock trio dc Talk. After the group went on hiatus, he launched a successful solo career in 2001 with the album Momentum. He has since become a fixture in the Christian/Gospel genre, known for a steady stream of gold-selling albums that blend pop, hip-hop and rock elements. His 2012 album, Eye on It, topped the Billboard 200 chart, and Life After Death became his sixth consecutive studio album to reach No. 1 on the Top Christian Albums chart.
