Love Camila but it was certified 7x in December, so its 8x-9x at best.

What is with all these outrageous 'eligible for' numbers just being thrown out this past month :deadbanana:

Camila may be a one hit wonder - like ATRL likes to call her - but at least she's one with a diamond single.

RIAA does not include all video streams Nielsen includes. Only official video streams generated by her YouTube channel. 

 

For example, random channels on YouTube that upload videos using Havana audio count towards Nielsen's streams; but they would not count for an RIAA certification.

 

It was only certified 7x Platinum in December because of that. It def hasn't done around 3 million units this year lol, that would make it one of the top 5 songs of 2019. :rip:

I wish that account used common sense sometimes. How can a song eligible for diamond be certified 7x just 6 months back when its way past its hey days :rip: and then stans run with that bull****

Damn they really payoled this into a “diamond” single

It must be really hard for you to see all the success from Camila in all fronts while your girl is still relying on big collaborations to have a #7 peaking single, uh

 

But you do you. Keep creating all ur "Normani is the first black girl to..", "Normani the first pop girl born in 1996 to hit #1 in pop radio", "Normani first pop girl coming from a five piece group to hit top 10 with a four-word title song" while trying to discredit other girl's REAL success. :thing:

Nah, those streams Billboard reported in the article are from Nielsen, which also includes unofficial YouTube plays (from channels that aren't Camila's) which RIAA discards. Havana was certified 7x Platinum last December, which means she's near 8 million units now.

Do you realize record labels need to pay for the certifications, that's why they're always late? Gaga herself has a lot of singles that are only platinum/2x platinum because Interscope hasn't updated her certifications. The fact it was 7x platinum in December doesn't mean much. It's just that Epic only cared back then

It didn't sell 3 million units in 6 months, use common sense :dies: Nielsen Soundscan (which Billboard uses for its charts) counts unofficial YT streams that RIAA discards.

Well she promoted it for like two years

She literally just promoted it from November 2017 to May 2018, which was six months in total if you’re trying to imply about the live performances. After that, of course she had to perform the song that was nominated at the 2019 Grammys, Ariana confirmed no artist could take control of this.

 

 

This song deserves this certification tbh. The very last good pop song here that I enjoy.

I hope you are not serious :dies:

 

Here's the full history of Havana -

 

     7x Multi-Platinum | December 14, 2018

     6x Multi-Platinum | August 30, 2018
     5x Multi-Platinum | April 12, 2018
     4x Multi-Platinum | February 28, 2018
     3x Multi-Platinum | January 19, 2018
     2x Multi-Platinum | December 4, 2017
     Platinum | November 14, 2017
     Gold | November 14, 2017

 

It would actually be cheaper if they did a bulk certification btw. But they have been updating regularly. It took more than year for it to go from 6x to 7x, you think it suddenly increased in popularity for it to move another 3m units in 6 months? :deadbanana2:

I didn't mean it's diamond, only that Epic was probably updating it closely up until that point (december) probably because of the Grammys. It may have hit 8x or 9x by now but it's not updated
