What's wrong with this?
there's nothing "wrong" with it but it's not legitimate platinum, in the sense that she didn't actually sell 1 million copies of her album to the general public.

You make the rules?
The rules are already set. Platinum = 1 million copies sold. Platinum status is used as a way to determine an artists popularity/relevance.
Having Samsung buy 1 million copies is a cheap way to garner that achievement so it looks good on paper when we look back and say "Rihanna had a platinum album last year"

You sound like one of those people who say using steroids is cheating.


Using steroids is more legitimate than this

Is it not?You sound like one of those people who say using steroids is cheating.

Okay I see what you are saying.Like Star said....When I go to a baseball game I wanna see a bunch of home runs. If I have to pay for all the overpriced snacks and souvenirs I want something in return. I want more bang for my buck. Shoot up and knock out a homerun everytime u come to the plate. Give me a damn show. How is it cheating if u are doing your job which is entertaining me??
No wonder Rita Ora is mad. She sees the Rihanna push. She sees Cole getting Tidal shares for the low. She's like, "what about me Jay?' What about me?"So one of my nikkas who's never given a fukk about album sales before randomly just texted me.."Rihanna went platinum in a day..Cot damn"
Roc Nation knows what they're doing
