Īkon's increasing popularity led to him making numerous guest appearances on other artists' songs: in 2005, he appeared on the singles ' Baby I'm Back' by Baby Bash and ' Soul Survivor' by Young Jeezy, which charted at number 19 and number four on the Billboard Hot 100 respectively. Trouble also included the singles 'Gunshot (Fiesta Riddim)', ' Ghetto', ' Belly Dancer (Bananza)' and ' Pot of Gold', and was eventually certified Platinum by the RIAA and by the British Phonographic Industry in the United Kingdom, where it reached number one on the UK Albums Chart. Two of its singles – ' Locked Up' and ' Lonely' – reached the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100, with the latter topping numerous singles charts worldwide and being certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
