RIAA(Recording Industry Association of America) are the people that give out the gold and platinum awards for records. Today they made a huge change that effects a ton of artists giving Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly platinum and Big Sean’s Dark Sky Paradise as well. The way it works is like this for every 1,500 video views or song streams it is equivalent to having 1 album sale which may seem like a ton for 1 album but for the artist of today who get a huge amount of stream and video views it is perfect.
