“Needed Me” is 9x platinum eligible, pushing Diamond, so they need to hurry up and have that updated, and so is “No One”. 
 

 

Congrats though.

 

THEE SLEEPER R&B HIT of the 10’s to be honest.

Came here to say this. Congrats to Ella tho.

Since when is Diamonds r&b? I swear a black female artist could release a whole album of nothing but EDM tracks and people would still categorize it as r&b.

You're right. Diamonds is a Pop Song. I edited the OP

 

 

[UnanimousBB16]

Yes at "No One" representing the pre-srreamjng era.

Don't worry, it's not your fault. I was just calling out the industry.
