Beef Awarded Both Gold and Silver Labels

Sales certification from the Recording Industry Association of America

In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) awards certification based on the number of albums and singles sold through retail and other coincident markets.[1] Other countries have similar awards (see music recording certification). Certification is not automatic; for an honour to be made, the record label must outset request certification.[2] The audit is conducted against internet shipments later returns (most frequently an artist's royalty argument is used), which includes albums sold directly to retailers and one-stops, directly-to-consumer sales (music clubs and mail order) and other outlets.

Description and qualifications [edit]

A Gold record is a song or album that sells 500,000 units (records, tapes and meaty discs). The award was launched in 1958;[3] originally, the requirement for a Aureate single was one million units sold and a Gold album represented $1 million in sales (at wholesale value, around a third of the listing toll).[4] In 1975, the additional requirement of 500,000 units sold was added for Gold albums.[4] Reflecting growth in tape sales, the Platinum accolade was added in 1976, for albums able to sell i one thousand thousand units, and singles selling two million units.[4] [five] The Multi-Platinum award was introduced in 1984, signifying multiple Platinum levels of albums and singles.[6] In 1989, the sales thresholds for singles were reduced to 500,000 for Golden and 1,000,000 for Platinum, reflecting a subtract in sales of singles.[7] In 1992, RIAA began counting each disc in a multi-disc set as one unit of measurement toward certification. Reflecting boosted growth in music sales, the Diamond honour was instituted in 1999 for albums or singles selling ten one thousand thousand units.[iii] Because of these changes in criteria, the sales level associated with a particular accolade depends on when the award was made.

Nielsen SoundScan figures are non used in RIAA certification; the RIAA system predates Nielsen SoundScan and includes sales outlets Nielsen misses.[ commendation needed ] Prior to Nielsen SoundScan, RIAA certification was the simply audited and verifiable system for tracking music sales in the U.Due south.; information technology is notwithstanding the only system capable of tracking 100% of sales (albeit as shipments less returns, not bodily sales similar Nielsen SoundScan).[ citation needed ] This organisation has permitted, at times, record labels to promote an album as Gold or Platinum simply based on large shipments. For instance, in 1978 the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Ring soundtrack shipped Platinum but was a sales bust, with two one thousand thousand returns.[8] Similarly, all four solo albums by the members of Kiss simultaneously shipped Platinum that same twelvemonth but did not reach the top twenty of the Billboard 200 album chart.[9] The following yr, the RIAA began requiring 120 days from the release date earlier recordings were eligible for certification, although that requirement has been reduced over the years and currently stands at 30 days. Sony was widely criticized in 1995 for hyping Michael Jackson's double anthology HIStory as 5 times Platinum, based on shipments of 2.5 one thousand thousand and using the RIAA's recently adopted practice of counting each disc toward certification, while SoundScan was reporting only 1.3 meg copies sold.[ten] A similar discrepancy between shipments and sales was reported with The Lion King soundtrack.[11]

In the digital era, changes in the way music is consumed resulted in changes in the certification criteria. Actual album sales had dropped significantly, while digital download followed by streaming became increasingly dominant. On-demand sound and video streams started to be counted towards Digital Single units consumed in 2013.[12] [13] Track downloads and audio and video streams were then included in anthology certification in 2016 using formulas converting downloads and streams into the album units for certification purpose.[14]

List of certifications [edit]

Records [edit]

  • 500,000 units: Gold album
  • one,000,000 units: Platinum album
  • two,000,000+ units: Multi-Platinum album
  • 10,000,000 units: Diamond album

Starting from February ane, 2016, each anthology unit may exist one of the following:[xiv] [15]

  1. One digital or physical album sold or shipped;
  2. 10 tracks from the album downloaded;
  3. i,500 on-demand sound or video streams of songs from the album.

Multi-disc [edit]

Multi-disc albums are counted once for each disc within the album if it is over 100 minutes in length or is from the vinyl era. For example, the Corking Pumpkins' Mellon Collie and the Space Sadness (running time of 121:39) and OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below (running fourth dimension of 134:56), both double albums, were counted twice, significant each album was certified diamond later 5 million copies were shipped. Pink Floyd's The Wall and the Beatles' White Album, both vinyl-era, are also counted as double even though their running times are under the minimum requirement. Rules may or may non apply depending on well-nigh recent staff within the Distributions position.

Spanish [edit]

Since 2000, the RIAA too awards Los Premios de Oro y De Platino (Gilded and Platinum Awards in Spanish) to Latin albums which are defined by the RIAA as a type of product that features at least 51% of content in Spanish.[sixteen]

As of December twenty, 2013, the honor levels for Latin certifications are:[17]

  • 30,000 units: Disco de Oro
  • lx,000 units: Disco de Platino
  • 120,000 units: Disco de Multi-Platino
  • 600,000 units: Disco de Diamante

For certifications made before December 20, 2013, the award levels are:[18]

  • 51,000 units: Disco de Oro
  • 100,000 units: Disco de Platino
  • 200,000 units: Disco de Multi-Platino
  • 1,000,000 units: Disco de Diamante

Note: The number of sales required to qualify for Oro and Platino awards was higher prior to January 1, 2008.[18] The thresholds were 100,000 units (Oro) and 200,000 units (Platino). All Castilian-linguistic communication albums certified prior to 2008 were updated to friction match the current certification at the time.[18] [19] "La Bomba" by Bolivian group Azul Azul is the only single to receive a Latin certification based on shipments earlier the creation of the Latin digital singles awards in 2013.[20] The Disco de Diamante award was introduced later on the RIAA updated the thresholds for Latin certifications on Dec twenty, 2013. The Disco de Diamante is awarded to Latin albums that take been certified 10× Platinum.[21] [22]

Singles [edit]

Standard singles are certified:

  • Gold when information technology ships 500,000 copies
  • Platinum when it ships 1,000,000 copies
  • Multi-Platinum when it ships at least 2,000,000 copies

Note: The number of sales required to authorize for Gold and Platinum discs was higher prior to January i, 1989. The thresholds were previously ane,000,000 units (Gold) and two,000,000 units (Platinum).[23]

Digital singles are certified:

  • Gold means 500,000 certification units
  • Platinum ways i,000,000 certification units
  • Multi-Platinum means ii,000,000+ certification units

From 2004 through July 2006, the certification level was 100,000 downloads for Gold and 200,000 for Platinum. When the RIAA changed the certification standards to match retail distribution in August 2006, all Platinum and Multi-Platinum awards for a digital release were withdrawn. Gilded certifications, however, were not, pregnant a song that was downloaded over 100,000 times and certified so by the RIAA during that fourth dimension frame retains its Gilded status.[24]

Starting May 9, 2013, RIAA certifications for singles in the "digital" category include on-demand sound and/or video song streams in addition to downloads at a charge per unit of 100 streams=1 certification "unit of measurement".[12] [25] On January 2, 2016, this charge per unit was updated to 150 streams = i certification unit.[13]

Latin digital singles are certified:

  • Disco de Oro (Gold) means xxx,000 certification units
  • Disco de Platino (Platinum) means 60,000 certification units
  • Disco de Multi-Platino (Multi-Platinum) means 120,000+ certification units

The Latin Digital Single Awards began on December 20, 2013. Every bit with the digital sales, 100 streams count as i download sale.[17]

Video Longform [edit]

Forth with albums, digital albums, and singles in that location is another classification of music release called "Video Longform." This release format includes DVD and VHS releases, and certain live albums and compilation albums. The certification criteria are slightly unlike from other styles.[26] [27]

  • Gilt: 50,000 copies
  • Platinum: 100,000 copies
  • Multi-Platinum: 200,000 copies

Video Single [edit]

For Video Single certification, the title must contain no more than 2 songs and must have a running time of no more than fifteen minutes. The certification criteria are:[27]

  • Gold: 25,000 copies
  • Platinum: 50,000 copies
  • Multi-Platinum: 100,000 copies

Equally of 2021[update], the titles certified the near Video Single awards are "Here Without You" by iii Doors Downwardly and Elvis Presley's "A Little Less Chat", both winning half dozen× Platinum for 300,000 copies.[28] Since 2010, only 5 titles have been certified Video Unmarried. The latest Gold was awarded to "R40" by Blitz in 2017.[29]

Video Box Set [edit]

The "Video Box Prepare" (or "Multi-Box Music Video Set") award is a nomenclature for video compilations that include 3 or more than videos that are grouped and marketed together equally a set. Similar Video Longform, this includes DVD and VHS releases and the certification criteria are the same. Each individual video within set is counted as one toward certification.[27]

  • Gold: 50,000 copies
  • Platinum: 100,000 copies
  • Multi-Platinum: 200,000 copies

The best-selling video box set as certified by the RIAA is the Rolling Stones' Four Flicks DVD compilation from their Licks World Tour, with a 19X Multi-Platinum designation. This was probable accomplished due to exclusive distribution rights owned by All-time Purchase by their brusque-lived music production company, Redline Entertainment.[thirty] [31]

Chief Ringtone [edit]

Primary Ringtone (mastertone) awards were introduced in 2006.[32] Certification levels are identical to those of singles, 500,000 for Aureate and 1,000,000 for Platinum and Multi-Platinum.

Many Main Ringtone certifications were awarded until 2009, but since then only 10 certifications were awarded in 2010, three in 2012 and 3 in 2019, all three to Air conditioning/DC.[33]
