I can never understand how Journals flopped so hard tbh. It is only platinum after all these years

From what I could gather, Justin's label was simply unwilling to support the project and its R&B direction. None of the songs were sent to radio, and I think it had a pretty unconventional rollout too, with a new song being released every week. It took until 2016 to get a physical release.

 

The fact his legal issues were consistently making headlines during that period probably didn't help matters. The controversies really overshadowed the music, which already struggled with poor promotion and industry support. Real shame, because it is unanimously agreed by most Bieber fans to be his best project.

Anybody know what the highest certification is for a project that never charted on the BB200?

Yes what happened about that...was there a decision to not count his album. No way did he get such low sales that he couldn't chart.

If I recall there were rumours he decided against officially releasing it due to Beyoncé’s surprise release which would have prevented him from hitting #1, therefore his first week sales were just never counted for any week.
