This Anti vs.The Pinkprint argument is pretty pointless.  On paper, they both did the same.  Both are 2x Platinum and sitting around 700k pure sales.

But Nicki honestly did do better, because she got 2x platinum without Samsung buying a million copies.  I will never get behind being platinum off a corporation buying your albums.  It's a cheap way to soften the blow of a flop era.

So, +1 for Nicki overall.  But on paper, the stats are the same.

But right now in 2017-2018?  Rihanna's next project is going to dust Nicki's next one unless Rihanna releases the worst music of her career.  And even then, it would probably perform better than "NEEDED A PAP!!!!!1111111"

You're actually right.  Last time I take the word of Onika.  :kii:

Anti actually should be 3x platinum.

this plaque is only for 2x and RIAA tracks the free albums and purchased ones

What Kaeli said is correct.

The album has reached 2 million without the free copies.  So, it's actually eligible for 3x platinum.

As of January 2017, Rihanna sold 603,000 copes and had about 1.3 million in streams.  So, she was at 1.9 million without the free copies.

This is with the inclusion of the 1m+ free purchases, Ray. I'm saying that it's still 2x platinum without the free streams. It's at like 2.5 or 6 million as of August if I recall correctly. It would be 3x platinum WITH the purchases.
