Ironman went platinum

i didn't notice until now that ghostface's ironman was certified platinum last year by the riaa. the only other solos to go platinum are tical, tical 2000, and blackout

yea, everyone says the other ones did too, but liquid swords, beneath the surface, and cuban linx went gold not platinum.

US or worldwide?

yo i thougt t2000 went double platinum..and cuban linx sold 500k in three days so youd think it went platinum...quess not

500,000 is gold, not platinum....and i doubt it sold that many units in 3 days. those are eminem, britney spears, backstreet boys and n sync type numbers

i know that 500k is gold


but for real linx DID go gold in 3 days

it might have shipped gold, but it didn't sell gold in 3 days

i think he was saying since it moved so many units in such a short time that you'd think it would have gone platinum by now.

cuban linx released august 1, 1995. certified gold october 2, 1995

exactly

there really is no way of knowing how many units sold in the first 3 days because soundscan wasn't around when cuban linx came out. the charts were based off of units shipped. and it took 2 months for cuban linx to be certified gold.
