If not the last one in history to be honest.
By the time we get another possible candidate #1 albums will probably be selling 30k or so...

Amazing

[Butters]

[Tylerbv]

Amazing. Well deserved.

[Tainted Blood]

Mark my words: it will be the last album EVER to reach Diamond, i'm 100% sure of it.

[KensieNars]

The last person to reach Diamond was Usher in 2004 right?

[Rolland]

Congratulations, well deserved.

Hmmm....I'd never say something that definite.

Even if you think there will never be an album this huge again (and personally I think there will be but it will only be in another 30 yrs or so....), there may be a change in the way music is consumed/bought etc. which makes it easier for lesser albums to hit 10m copies. Much as in the 1990s no-one could have foreseen the digital era and its effect on album sales.

Lol, yes i think thats what it is. I read the list wrong

[Mariah4life]

[ClashAndBurn]

The previous most recent Diamond certification went to Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory. Just earlier this year.

[Blueberry Mary]

Two years ago, no one predicted such a feat would happen again.

Congratulations Adele

This was the least record (release date) who went diamond. It was 4 years after the release (including shippments). It reached in 2011 10 millions with soundscan.

All artists who reached diamond after 2008 did it with older albums and then came the almighty ADELE

[Sláy]

well done.

[skyler]

first artist this decade to get a diamond album
