Feb 1, 2016 nah.. there's like 100 000 citizens. But hitting gold/platinum is now the ultimate goal for most labels and they usually stop promoting their albums when its done (it all depends on the artists). I guess he's trying to cash in even more.
Feb 1, 2016 Interscope was definitely not going to stop promoting tpab, specially with kendrick's 11 noms at the grammys.
Feb 1, 2016 The RIAA made this change because of the way people consume music now. It's ridiculous to be so against this change without looking like an old man yelling at the clouds. If people were buying records like back in the day this change wouldn't have happened. If there's anyone to be mad at, be mad at the people not the RIAA. All they did was adapt to the current consumption of music.
Feb 1, 2016 The billboard counted it but not the RIAA when it came to certifications. RIAA used to only do pure album sales.
