Rap Albums That Went Diamond

Рет қаралды 606,732

Күн бұрын

We often hear rappers mentioning when they went gold, or even platinum, but it's once in a blue moon that a rapper achieves diamond status on one of their records. Whether it be an album or a song, to be RIAA Certified Diamond you have to sell 10 million units.
Only the most highly regarded artists have been able to do this - Eminem, Outkast, Tupac - but there's some other artists that you might find quite surprising on this list. If that's the case, be sure to let me know in the comments.

There's *A LOT* of things wrong in this video: 1. Double albums are counted twice for certifications, so in reality they only sold half the amount as non-double albums. 2. Tupac did NOT have the first double album in Hip Hop, it was "He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince in 1988. 3. MC Hammer and Beastie Boys also had diamond albums in Hip Hop. 4. The only non-double albums in Hip Hop to go diamond include: Country Grammar (Nelly), Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em (MC Hammer), Licensed to Ill (Beastie Boys), Devil Without a Cause (Kid Rock), The Eminem Show (Eminem), and The Marshall Mathers LP (Eminem).

@worldtree2027 2 жыл бұрын

You also have to mention earnings. Double Albums counted twice because an album generally costs $8-$10 and double albums generally cost $17-$22. So you’re essentially having 1 product cost close to or more than twice as much as everyone else’s albums. It’s like selling 1,000 pairs of $100 shoes vs 500 pairs of $200 shoes. It’s the same outcome.

Nas is an emcee's emcee. Nimble voice? Check. Gripping tales? Check. Concept songs? Check. Classic albums? Check. An exemplary commitment to integrity.? Check, check, check. Whether rapping about project windows or fried chicken, Nas has a way of bringing pictures to life. He’s weathered the vagaries of the music industry and maintained a dedicated fan base. All his albums have been certified gold or platinum. That's a remarkable feat for a man not known for Top 40 hits. Nas is the greatest emcee of all time. Essential: "Illmatic"

Fun fact: most of Tupac listeners didn’t even buy albums and technology is way different now. So imagine if that wasn’t the case, he would’ve sold well over 13 to 14 plus million on all eyes on me. Biggie greatest hits sold over a million RIAA. Tupac greatest hits sold over 10 million RIAA..
