And I don't think they even bought any certification for HTE, like not even gold

[slw84]

That's actually huge. So many pop girl albums from the 80s-00s are seen as smashes and are at like 5x platinum. This album is at 7.4m in just four years and during the streaming era. I wonder where HTE and Sour are at.

[Maroonx]

 massive!!!

SOUR sold 5M+ in august 2023. Probably at 5.5M now

1989TV is will probably hit 3x in the matter of weeks

[Beyonnaise]

Indisputably the biggest album and era by a Gen Z music artist

[KOMH]

That's actually mental. A smash on all fronts without any hint of plagiarism. Not every 2000s born starlet has that

Lover is also 7x Platinum now I think? It’s units is close to Midnights

 

OT: Happier Than Ever deserves but I’m happy for Billie

[iHype.]

Billboard themselves keep posting inflated SPS numbers including non-official video views  It's not possible for it to be past 7m. 

 

2019: 2,518,000

2020: 1,315,000

2021: 834,000

2022: 630,000

2023: 500,000~

= 5,797,000

 

Adding in pre-release 2018 activity its prob just around the 6m mark. They should specify these numbers include user-upload video streams which don't even count for RIAA or Billboard.

 

Smash album though. 

 

 

[Green]

It's eligible for 7x Platinum 

[bad guy]

A classic smash album 

 

Diamond by 2027

Does this mean Lover surpassed it in units? Or is the 6.3M units as well inflated with UGC?
