Cockney Cupcake Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 A King Seeing how long it took some to get 2 diamond certs it makes Adele back to back ones in this sales climate 10000x more impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkysan Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Honestly, I'm shocked it took so long for another MJ album to go Diamond, with streaming and the re-releases. But nevertheless, congratulations eternal King of Pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad is under-certified in the US even at Diamond but did sell considerably less than Thriller. That being said, it's still Top 10 best-selling albums ever... it's all about scale, Michael is a huge album seller, but Thriller is a phenomenon that no act could expect to match.

slw84 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 11 hours ago, DivaCup said: Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' Extends Reign as Highest Certified Album in U.S. History Doug Morris, Rob Stringer, John Branca, Richard Story, L.A. Reid and Karen Langford. Michael Jackson’s blockbuster album Thriller just keeps on getting bigger. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has certified the set at 33-times platinum in the U.S., extending Thriller’s record as the highest certified album in history. That means Thriller -- released in 1982 -- has earned 33 million equivalent album units in the U.S. That sum blends traditional album sales (one album sale equals one unit), tracks sold from an album (10 tracks sold equals one unit) and on-demand audio and/or video streams (1,500 streams equals one unit). A plaque commemorating the milestone was presented at the home of Epic Records chairman Antonio "L.A." Reid over Grammy weekend, where Sony Music CEO Doug Morris, Columbia Records chairman and incoming Sony Music CEO Rob Stringer, Sony president, commercial group Richard Story, attorneys Karen Langford and John Branca toasted the certification. The RIAA revamped its Gold & Platinum Awards Program on Feb. 1, 2016, growing from a pure album sales certification process to one that includes tracks and streams. That same day, Thriller’s certification was raised from 30 million to 32 million. Thriller continues to maintain its place as the highest-certified album ever, ahead of Eagles’ Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975, with 29 million (It was last certified on Jan. 30, 2006.) Simultaneous with Thriller’s raised certification, its follow-up, Bad, climbs to 10-times platinum (the RIAA’s Diamond award). Jackson is one of just 22 acts with more than one Diamond-certified album.

I Did It Again Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP and The Eminem Show Billy Joel - The Stranger and Greatest Hits Volume I & Volume II Madonna - Like a Virgin and The Immaculate Collection Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall Bruce Springsteen - Born in the U.S.A. and Live/1975–85 2pac - All Eyez On Me and Greatest Hits Dixie Chicks - Wide Open Spaces and Fly Adele - 21 and 25 NSYNC - NSYNC and No Strings Attached Backstreet Boys - Backstreet Boys and Millennium Celine Dion - Falling into You and Let's Talk About Love Van Halen - Van Halen and 1984 Def Leppard - Pyromania and Hysteria More than 2: Eagles - 3 Shania Twain - 3 Led Zeppelin - 5 The Beatles - 6 Garth Brooks - 7 @asanders10795544 Legends only... I was wondering when they were going to get around to certifying Bad diamond. I don't think Off the wall will make it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, memories of smooth criminal the video and having a white suit just like his to wear to church. Another part of me deserved to be a #1 hit.
