SELLING 20 MILLION PHYSICAL RECORDS
IS DAMN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE.

IF THOSE SONGS HAD STREAMS COUNTED
EVERYTIME SOMEONE PLAYED THEM
ON CD/CASSETTE
THEY WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN 50X PLAT THO

:devil:
:evil:

Their streams still count. I highly doubt some Eminem songs and In Da Club wouldn't have if they were counted properly. Eminem's streaming numbers are absurd.

I just checked the RIAA website.

:patrice:

It isn’t certified diamond on there but…

let’s just say it went double diamond…that would mean it sold more than any weeknd song, Drake Song, Travis Scott song, Postmalone song, Kanye song.

That would mean it sold more in total than

Hey Ya - outkast
Yeah! -usher
Lose yourself
No one - Alicia Keys
Low - Flo-Rida

It would make it the greatest selling hip hop song of all time.

YOU MISSING THE POINT.

IF STREAMING EXISTED WHEN
THOSE SONGS DROPPED
THEY WOULD BE 50X PLAT.

YOURE TALKING ABOUT SONGS
THAT CAME OUT 15-25 YEARS
BEFORE STREAMING BECAME A THING
SO THOSE SONGS WERENT HOT ANYMORE

It isn't certified on there because kendrick and his label haven't requested it. it's ELIGIBLE. TDE also just said they won't request the plaque, because they don't care. But its indeed the best selling rap song ever.
