Considering labels have to pay for certifications, I would not be surprised at all if Universal personally orchestrated this solely for the benefit of Rihanna and Gaga tho.

I thought that right when I was reading the change. Lady Gaga and Rihanna's management were clamoring for this.

It's actually a good possibility.

All those 2011-2012 gifs resurrecting for this glorious day. Who would have thought a year ago that MTN was going to go platinum before ARTPOP's release ?

Hell, who thought it would go platinum this century?

So this is what I managed to calculate as far as her certification eligibility, and the only one that counts Spotify at all is "Born This Way". "Starstruck" is sales only.

“Bad Romance” 10,513,509
“Poker Face” 8,448,761
“Just Dance” 8,329,390
“Born This Way” 5,304,187
“Telephone” 5,280,864
“Paparazzi” 4,500,606
“Alejandro” 4,273,183
“LoveGame” 3,448,318
“The Edge of Glory” 3,344,686
“Judas” 3,159,373
“You and I” 2,651,317
“Marry the Night” 1,533,134
“Starstruck” 679,000
“Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)” 580,206
“Beautiful, Dirty, Rich” 533,283

note: I used the disputed 1.5m Judas receipt

I still think including streams too heavily in BB and now RIAA is messy but whatever, I can't believe we can actually say Judas and MTN went platinum Never ever thought I'd see the day.

I guess I'm not really that bothered by it one way or another, since the rest of my faves remain flopping in both sales and streams

[hausofbryan]

I think her BTW singles will benefit big time from Spotify, certification wise.

[ClashAndBurn]

Of course, it only matters if they pay for her certs, which we all know they're not willing to do.

Gaga will ****ing break records from left and right with ARTPOP now. I expect Monsters to cooperate tremendously.

Honestly once Gaga is active again and her fan base is alive outside ATRL and GGD, streaming weeks won't even be that far-fetched. We could totally get every album track charting

The bragging rights of saying they could all be platinum is great tho

The fact that charting on Billboard wasn't that incredibly far fetched even when I thought of trying it at the driest time in Gaga's career to date is what really proves that this fanbase could abuse these new streaming rules. #1 hits and diamond lead singles every era.
