EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THIS BY NOW THERE ARE ONLY 5 DIAMOND RAP ALBUMS.....PAC, BIG, EMINEM, OUTKAST, AND MC HAMMER....YES HAMMER!!!!!
SORRY GUYS BUT FIFTY IS UP TO 8 MILLION and SOME CHANGE WIT GRODT
PAC - ALL EYES ON ME (Released on February 13th, 1996, All Eyez on Me reached platinum status in just 4 hours. Selling over 9 million copies, and qualifies for Diamond album status since each disc in a double album counts towards RIAA certification.
EMINEM - THE MARSHALL MATHERS LP ( The Marshall Mathers LP. Selling over 1.7 million copies during the first week of it’s May 23rd, 2000, release, The Marshall Mathers LP quickly became the fastest-selling rap album in history, almost tripling the record set by Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle and crushing the record for highest one-week sales by a solo artist previously held by Brittney Spears. The Marshall Mathers LP has sold over 10 million records in the US and at that time was one of only four rap albums to achieve an RIAA Diamond Certification....There are 5 Diamond rap albums now....Outkast relesed in 2003)
NOTORIUS B.I.G. - LIFE AFTER DEATH (Released on March 25th, 1997, two months after his death,the 24 track double LP is one of four albums to receive an RIAA certification of Diamond. Considered by many to be one of the greatest rap albums of all times and is said to be among the first albums fashioned for the mainstream pop charts as it was created to include both gritty/hood music as well as include a very radio friendly vibe. To date the album has sold well over 10 million records in the US and was ranked at number 483 on Rolling Stone Magazine’s list of 500 Greatest Albums of All times.)
OUTKAST - SPEAKERBOXX/THE LOVE BELOW (The September 23rd, 2003 double LP release of Outkast. Big Boi’s and Andre 3000’s “Speakerboxxx/ The Love Below” sold over 5.5 million copies, however, due to the fact that it was a double LP, the total sales came in at over 11 million copies and reached Diamond certification by going 11 times platinum. To date, the album remains as the best selling hip hop album of all time and became the best selling album worldwide in 2003.
AND THE BIGGEST SHOCKER OF THEM ALL......................................................................
