    That streams s--- kinda kills the importance of plat tho cause at this rate nicki will go plat with streams too, even tho shes barely over 500k with actual album sales.

    Nah I don't see her going too plat soon. It's gonna be tough unless a hit like truffle butter carries her. Even with streaming it will take her forever since she just went gold.

    d---. Wow. That's crazy. Well her last two albums went plat so I guess it's not that surprising. She's going plat. Especially with truffle butter getting ridiculous spins.

    streams benefit pop artists like crazy tbh. Cole only has like 100k diff from actual sales and sales plus streams. Nicki has a 300k diff smh

    If Cole goes platinum the games confirmed changed forever.

    What other artist has ever gone platinum without minimal promo and a certified hit (even though apparently is doing ok)?

    Cole the god...

    That's true lol. But I guess it's different with because Drake is way bigger and is superstar. The fact that an artist of Cole's stature did those numbers shows how important building a fan base is. I'm not saying Cole changed the game with this album it just shows how much the music industry has changed.

    And energy is gonna be a hit. Been killing it on iTunes will probably debut high on hot 100 and pass apparently in no time :laff:

    CW: TSS and BS have a better shot at going plat now. They'll eventually get there since streams are counted.
