Why should we lower our standards? Taylor, JT, Bruno, Adele, Eminem and Beyonce can still get multi-platinum albums, so it's not impossible.

Shame ITZ era was cut short, it would have been her 4th album to sell more than any Beyonce album.

Cut short my ass, Dangerously In Love could have sold way more if she released more singles.

Legend X will have two 5 million+ sellers soon.
Britney and Bey are pretty even in terms of digital sales, I think. Billboard credited "Scream & Shout" as a duet btw. It was 'and' Britney.

When only 6 artists can get multi platinum, there is something wrong
And JT not anymore because Part 2 did not go 2x and I did not know Bruno was 2x

P!nk is the only artist of the late '90s/early '00s to have truly impressive digital singles.
Beyonce's are OK but she's selling albums so it's not bad.
Britney and Xtina are has-beens.

You mean her usual 8 singles?
Not to mention, ITZ era barely had any promo throughout 2004, especially in the US.

Not Andre 3000 exploring love and sex better in a skit than most of our faves do in a song

Right. People can still pull Plat in a week in the US. I think the current standard is fine. They could possibly adjust Diamond to like 6 or 7x for the current market, but the current Platinum threshold is still reasonable.

Beyonce will always be around. So will Pink. I still believe Xtina will have a great comeback one day. Britney is the one who is irretrievably done and she is obviously perfectly ok with that.
Rihanna is still young so she'll be ok for now. Gags idk. I'd love to believe she's over but I don't believe her starving artist act. I think she'll do anything for fame so she might just relinquish control to get success again

It's gonna take a long time for Say Somethin' to hit 5m.
And it's weird considering how many more promo performances Bernie's singles had.
