It's weird tbh. I know seeing these cert's will make him happy but....

Congrats but how far back into people's catalogues are they going to do this.I noticed they certified some of E-40's old singles and Jeremih's latest album too.
So happy for these artists. They work so hard!
Except for Rihanna.

They need to go as far back as they can verify. This is good. People arent buying albums like they used to and the music industry has to change to reflect the times. This is great for the artists
COME DAMN THROUGH!!!
so deserving of every accomplishment he receives
he imo is one if not the hardest working artist out there today.
and it's good to see that pay off
This makes me think though, how profitable is a platinum album in 2016 for the artist?!

Why are y'all so concerned about their money :dead:
This is about their music being appreciated and showing that people are listening. As an artists, u should always have multiple logs in the fire anyway. I don't think most people get tons of money just off of album sales anyway

This is about their music being appreciated
Appreciation is someone actually buying.
They dont even get PAID for real at all for streaming. WTF :rudone:

Who cares what they're getting paid :uhh:
Thats on them to market themselves and keep the money rolling in. Ya'll kill me trying to dictate what people should and shouldn't do to prove that they like people. I don't think MOST people care about buying an album for the purpose of making sure the artist is getting a check. If that was the case streaming wouldn't be a thing and it wouldnt be a part of figures.

I guess I'm in the minority on this subject.Its really only helping the most popular artist(with a few exceptions) who are already selling well .
For ex, on Spotify alone
Adele 21.4M monthly listeners
Justin Beiber 31M
Jazmine 619K
Tinashe 3.1M
Chris Brown 11.7M
Tamar 287K
Nicki 11.2M
Rihanna 31.1M
Ciara 2.9M
Monica 1.23M
Bryson Tiller 7.8M
Drake 21.7M
But this is a business and the RIAA charges $350 for each certification and there were only 3 platinum albums in 2014.
whew can't wait for them to recertify KweeNOJ
:traciandchelle:
And to be honest, all yall need to be going up cause outside of Adele, Taylor and maybe a few country artists or some shit, no one is a force in album sales. This is a change to reflect the time and how people are consuming their music
