Beverly?s funk outfit Maze achieved nine gold albums without launching a Top 40 single. Pendergrass did even better, achieving four gold albums and four platinum albums without a nod from the Top 40.

Wow.

I don't see the read in this.

This is a great thing for Tank, espeically an artist that's only catering to Urban Adult radio. It going platinum is irrelevant, especially at a time where MOST R&B artists (especially artists like Tank) aren't being certified at all.
