I've seen many people post accomplishments of their faves on here so I thought I'd post this because a lot of people doubted it would even go Gold! (Even though the Mods are pressed by her and will probs remove this meanwhile keep others' up)
First female rapper to go Gold since Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded and before that, Pink Friday.
It only costs $350 for certifications. Most labels wait as you pay for the audit, not the certification. Which means they could have, for example, 40 pieces of music certified in one go for the same cost of $350.
