Wow at all the Rihanna single certifications at all levels from MP to Gold. That really had to bolster her RIAA numbers significantly.

So RCA doesn't have enough money to certify Foo Fighters' Gold-eligible albums "Sonic Highways" and "Greatest Hits" (SH is at 490k, GH at 950k), but has enough money to certify the less-Gold eligible 1000 Forms of Fear (whih hasn't even sold 400k yet iirc). Good to see Compton certified on time though.
SIA 1000 FORMS OF FEAR JULY 08, 2014 OCTOBER 07, 2015 RCA/MONKEY PUZZLE STANDARD GOLD ALBUM NONE
COLE SWINDELL COLE SWINDELL FEBRUARY 17, 2015 OCTOBER 13, 2015 WARNER BROS STANDARD GOLD ALBUM NONE
DR. DRE COMPTON AUGUST 21, 2014 OCTOBER 13, 2015 AFTERMATH/INTERSCOPE RECORDS STANDARD GOLD ALBUM SOLO
THE WEEKND BEAUTY BEHIND THE MADNESS AUGUST 28, 2015 OCTOBER 15, 2015 REPUBLIC RECORDS/XO RECORDS STANDARD GOLD ALBUM SOLO

^A lot also has to do with the artist. Foo Fighters probably told RCA not to certify anything with the RIAA.

I could've sworn Carrie Underwood's Storyteller was certified Gold, or was that part of December's list?

Albums 20x and higher

Seeing Stapleton's record go Gold is so special and thrilling to see. A month and a half ago, the guy wasn't even a blip on the radar. This year's Q4 has been so damn great.

I know that there have been claims that the Eagles album was #1. I'm always amazed that the Eagles' Greatest Hits has kept neck-and-neck with Thriller all these years. Who still buys a greatest hits album that has been replaced many times over by other compilations that add more of their biggest hits (like "Hotel California") that came later? The hits from '71-'75 are classics for sure but why buy that when you could get another hits set that features all those songs plus another 5 years' worth of classics?
