Billboard 200: 3/19/11- Adele No. 1: 168,000

[HolidayGuy]

Not all certifications go in order- for instance, Madonna's The Immaculate Collection went from 6 million (certified 3/95) to 9 million (certified 3/00), with no 7 million or 8 million certs. Plenty other examples, too, so that 9m simultaneous cert is odd- that often happens for out-of-the-box certs (i.e. Gold, Platinum; Gold, Plat, Multi-Plat, etc.)

[Honeymoon]

I miss the days with music clubs and the like where a 7 million selling album could be certified Diamond without anyone batting an eyelash, now it seems like so many labels wait until years after a cert is due to award the album

Carries album is about done its run since no 5th single will be promoted, should pass 2 million by the end of the year.
Tasia needs to perform her 3rd single on idol in a month or so, when it has some airplay and then maybe it can make the hot 100
Crystal should get on ASAP.
Glee fell so hard cuz no new episode was on last week, but there was a new one this week so it should increase, and maybe volume 2 will be back

Why did they certify it 9x Platinum AND 10x Platinum? Why not just 10x Platinum? lol.

All certifications are automatically awarded below the latest certification. For example if something is previously un-certified and is certified 2xp it is simultaneously awarded Gold and Platinum as well as 2xp

An album has to be certified Gold and Platinum before it's certified 2x Platinum or higher, but once an album is Platinum the label can jump to any million they want went getting another certification.

[slicknickshady]

Nothing like these news articles getting it wrong "The Eminem Show Is his first album to cross the 10 million mark in the US".

Why are these new's outlets so stupid...

[chopped89]

Yeah right, I don't know what is all that about!!!!!
Don't they know that he sold more than 90 million albums WW?
Where did these numbers come from DUH!!
But who gives a fuck, only Em fans appreciate and approve what he does :)

slimnickshady, please lay down before you read this:

New RIAA certifications:

Eminem, The Marshall Mather LP 10xp

[areyoureadytojump]

Eminem RIAA:

The Slim Shady LP 4xp
The Marshall Mathers LP 10xp *new*
The Eminem Show 10xp *new*
Encore 4xp
Curtain Call: The Hits 2xp
Relapse 2xp
Recovery - not certified

Total: 32xp

[PDC1987]

A few rappers have one diamond album, but Eminem is the only one with a *2nd* album anywhere near 10 million as well, right?

It's nice he got his Diamond certs but he is still under-certified by 8 million. TSSLP is eligible for 6x Platinum so another 2 million, Encore is eligible for 5x Platinum so another million, CC: TH is eligible for 3x Platinum so another million, and Recoery will reach 4x Platinum soon enough, if it hasn't already, so that's another 4 million.

8 million more would take him to 40x Platinum.

Joy Williams is a friend/mentor/co-writer of David Archuleta. David spent a lot of time in Nashville writing with Joy and other writers for his album. He even stayed in Joy's house. I think Brian must just like The Civil Wars. Or maybe because Brian interviewed David in Nashville while he was working on the album. The other idol-related albums seem to have an idol on the actual album. Which isn't the case with The Civil Wars album.

[esoteric76]

^ Yes, David Archuleta is definitely the six-degrees-of-separation correlation here. Btw, The Civil Wars' Barton Hollow is a beautiful release. Joy Williams has one of the best voices in the business, although I much prefer her solo albums. (but I'll take ANYTHING from her, because she's great)

A few rappers have one diamond album.

Biggie and Outkast did it with double albums. MC Hammer did it with a single album.

I believe that was it before these latest Eminem certifications.

So...

Eminem = 2 Diamond Albums (MARSHALL MATHERS LP, THE EMINEM SHOW)

Biggie = 1 Diamond Album (Double Album means 5 Million = Diamond) (LIFE AFTER DEATH)

Outkast = 1 Diamond Album (Double Album means 5 Million = Diamond) (SPEAKERBOXXX / THE LOVE BELOW)

MC Hammer = 1 Diamond Album (PLEASE HAMMER DON'T HURT 'EM)


and Up for debate...is it Rap or is it Rock...


Kid Rock = 1 Diamond Album (DEVIL WITHOUT A CAUSE)


Edit:

Does anybody have a link for the MMLP info? I believe areyoureadytojump. He is always a good source. But someone at another board want's more proof. If you know me i have always gone on and on about how the MMLP isnt certified. But i trust this info but others still doubt it. haha.

Thanks for clearing that up, I was confused as to why it was being reported in Brian's blog lol. ;)
