Title: 2pac's "Greatest Hits" Certified Diamond
Post by: Raiders4Life on July 03, 2011, 06:04:04 PM
I'm surprised no one (message boards, news outlets) has noticed that 2pac's "Greatest Hits" album was certified "Diamond" a couple of weeks ago (June 23, 2011).

CTRL+F and search for "2 Pac"

Is that why? I was wondering about that.

Yeah that sucks that some of our all time greatest albums aren't being properly updated.

They would still have paper work, and be able to re-certify albums, but it's all down to additional money they don't want to part with

your kind of right, it sold over 5 million but since it is a double album it is counted twice because of the higher price as well. Same with AEOM.
