Are we sure the 1M wasn't redeemed yet? Because for ANTI the RIAA said they didn't certify the album until they saw the receipts of each copy being redeemed (=customers demand) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But: Quote Billboard: Yet you caught some heat on the Rihanna certification of Platinum for Anti, which got the award based on the Samsung giveaway? Kennedy: No more than we did when we certified Jay Z. Rihanna was certified before the change to consider streams in certification. There are two key requirements for the certification program. That there is consumer demand and that the artist and label get paid a certain minimum amount. We satisfied both of them with Rihanna. We got the data from the service, we saw the redemption of the download codes. They couldn’t just send the album to consumers, the consumer had to initiate the acquisition. The redemption is the indication of the demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"1" by the Beatles is eligible for 30x Diamond. *LegendsOnly* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6_INCH_HEELS Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) So damn shadey. It wasn't cute when he tried it the first time and its not cute now. The way him and Bey are total opposites with their releases and successes is just alarming. Edited July 10, 2017 by 6_INCH_HEELS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
