I was under the impression from somewhere that "No one can do it better" went platinum. 

Same here, I always thought he had the accident after his platinum party?!?!

Double CDs count as double sales, so 2Pac's All Eyez on Me is at 5,000,000, meaning that it's actually 10,000,000 making it a Diamond CD, which it's not certified as. Biggie's Life After Death is at 4,500,000, which is 9,000,000, or rounding, 9,100,000, and that's not enough for Diamond, but it is certified as such. Meaning, Puffy is doing a better job of making sure his artist are represented than Suge is. Which makes sense.

It did go platinum but these figures only count the Soundscan era which began in 1991 to today. Eazy Duz it is also 2x Plat and so is Straight Outta Compton all came out during the late 80's...

N.W.A:
"N.W.A & The Posse" - 364,544
"Straight Outta Compton" - 1,295,039
"100 Miles & Runnin EP" - 314,766
"EFIL4ZAGGIN" - 2,084,941
Total = 4.059.290
This is flase becuase Straight Outta Compton was certified 2x platinum, while Efil4zaggin was only certified one time platinum.
