Minto Posted August 16 Posted August 16 i forgot about this classic wow alicia career from 2001-2013 was monstrous ….the fact girl on fire is 7x plat too 1
Twizzy Posted August 16 Posted August 16 I have a suspicion the actual sales figure are much more higher? How did it take 11 years to get updated from 3X to 6X platinum, but then take only an additional 4 more to go from 6X to Diamond did they forget to count its sales in the 2010s or

Post Malone has 9 diamond singles from a career not even lasting 10 years. 2

ATRL Moderator Bloo Posted August 16 ATRL Moderator Posted August 16 Congratulations, Miss Keys I love No One so much. It's such a classic.

BGKC Posted August 16 Posted August 16 That song was massive. Not exactly my favorite by her, but it just screams 2007 and that is one of my favorite years in music.

reymiu Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Kinda surprised that If I Ain't Got You didnt reach Diamond first Crazy that despite being an adult R&B artist, Alicia always manages to score a crossover smash hit in each of her first 5 eras - SIAM: Falling - DOAK: If I Ain't Got You, My Boo - AIA: No One - TEOF: Empire States of Mind (the Part 2 solo song should have been officially released and it would have easily been another smash) - GOF: the title track 2

No One and If I Ain't Got You have similar streams, but No One has 4.2m digital sales while If I Ain't Got You only has 1.3m digital sales. It came out in 2004 when only album sales were good, while No One was released in 2007 when they were selling well. 2
slw84 Posted August 17 Posted August 17 I'm shocked. I didn't even know it was that high but good for Alicia. A woman's worth deserves. Diary as well.
Soda Pop Queen Posted August 18 Posted August 18 of course. 'No One' is beyond bland, annoying af and was the beginning of the end of her vocals but congrats to AKeys. We all know 'Fallin', 'You Don't Know My Name' and 'Diary' deserved much better though. 1
