New Album Platinum

[POllywogBboy]

The Beastie Album TT5B has just been certified platinum just to let everyone know woooooooo!!

(y) to all the people who actually bought the album

[Benny Blanco]

I think that's great news, but I was wondering, is the album platinum in the U.S, or platinum worldwide?

[balohna]

US, every country has it's own platinum awards (e.g. you can go platinum in the US, Canada, the UK, etc. all individually)

[blanket.of.troy]

wooo! great news...and im ahead in record sales! (me and my friends pick a new album by an artist we support, this case the bboys, and let ppl listen to our albums and convince them to buy it. i have sold 17 thus far!)

[POllywogBboy]

Thats US Platinum for those that asked

[nobbus]

any album can go platinum. just have to press enough copies.

[Mr Films]

any album can go platinum. just have to press enough copies.

yeah, i don't think this mean a million people have bought the album.

i think it means retailers have bought a million copies.

No, im pretty sure it means retailers have sold a million copies, cuz in America they're all scanned.

I think its great that TT5B went platinum just on the strength of the first video/single Ch-check it out, and it didn't need the help of the Triple Trouble video/single to help TT5B go platinum. I hope Triple Trouble will help TT5B sell another million copies!

[MarkedCube]

I'm pretty sure they have just sold another million with all their old albums as well. ;)

Thats great for the boys, they deserve it. (y)

[balohna]

yeah i noticed that most stores got a shipment of every other album too, i saw a stack of hello nasty at a store about a month ago.

[BlimpieBluffin]

That's great. They definitely deserve it.

Rolling Stone Magazine gave their album 5 stars, so that was pretty cool despite all the other people saying it wasn't very good compared to others.

[Uru-Nitro]

so I'm sure the boys have sold at least 1 or 2 millions more in the rest of the world... because they are very europeans and people in japan love them

[Beastie Buddha]

the boys are big WORLDWIDE!!! the GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME!!! platinum status was an afterthought...now i was catwoman

[Gabriely]

so I'm sure the boys have sold at least 1 or 2 millions more in the rest of the world... because they are very europeans and people in japan love themhey...south americans also love bboys... (y)

i'm so happy also . i just heard that or read it somewhere that they went platinum and i think they're like number three or six on the billboard chart. i gotta check my rolling stone mag to be sure tho.
