The RIAA certification system is a mess.

HE WON! 

Good for him but the song is really bad. 

I've never heard this song and don't know what it sounds like.

I actually like the song, but this just proves that the current system is broken.

Candle in the Wind teas

... yikes.

This just shows how the calculated sps system is broken  how is this song bigger than RITD, BR, Roar, Halo, WFL etc.  

 

The 1500 streams equals 1 sale system has to change immediately. Streaming is only getting bigger and 2 years later people will get a diamond certificated song in just a month

hrmm.

 

I live in NYC. Go to a concert every week. Travel the world for festivals.

 

I follow good music, not basic trash.

It's not  most of his YouTube streams don't count for RIAA. The numbers in that tweet include user uploads but RIAA only recognises official ones.

 

Also that Twitter user is a fraud

Another win for the gays

Ok, Good for nasmaraj

And what makes you think it's not bigger than them? Just cause it's not sung by your fave? It's on par with most of those songs.

I've lived in NYC since 2008 and have never heard this song.  

 

Truth.

 

I don't listen to the radio. I'm never in a car. I don't search for it on streaming services.

 

Easy.

On the street? 

 

You think people are just blasting this song on the streets of NYC?

It's a #1 song on Billboard.  Of course it would be basic trash.
