Where you got the numbers from?
And how much records must be sold to get platinum status?

'And how much records must be sold to get platinum status? '

Platinum is 1 million copies sold......

[Quadruple OG]

...Chuuuch is getting no love from the East Coast so how are you going to sell when a whole coast ain't playing your records...

it ain't gettin any love cuz it's a wack song

Platinum is 1 million copies sold......

unless its a double album (betterdayz), it would only have to sell 500,000 actuall units to become certified platinum.. kinda a weak way to say you "went" platinum IMO.

[Deuce_G]

If a double album counts for 2 sales instead of one, then Snoop will have sold almost as many copies as Pac did.  That's not bad at all.  Besides, there was tough competition this week.  Expecting huge numbers doesn't really make sense.  In the last few weeks, everyone from Ja Rule, Missy Elliot, Fat Joe, Busta Rhymes, Tupac, Baby, Erick Sermon, Jay-Z, and more have come out.  They're all going to cut into each others weekly sales.  

[King-Suge]

2Pac's sales nearly double Snoops--its not a matter of Pac's numbers being doubled.  All things considered-Pac's sales are where I expected them and so are Snoops.  I cant get over Busta's numbers though--ouch.

snoops album isnt selling for reason...it sucks...and its not gonna pick up once the word gets out on it

[Deuce_G]

Doesn't a double CD count for 2?  If someone sells 500,000 copies of a double CD, 250,000 CD's were actually picked up and purchased by someone, but it counts for 2, right?  

[King-Suge]

Whether the album sucks or not is your opinion.  But to say the album isnt selling because it shows it sucks exposes how little you know about the industry.
