The highly anticipated sophomore album from Kendrick Lamar “To Pimp A Butterfly” has just gone gold. Last year only three artists had achieved this but this year things are looking much better in music sales with Kendrick moving 513,000 units. The others that made it over the 500,000 mark this year are Drake, Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, and Same Smith. This makes this year the fastest that we have gotten 7 gold album sellers in the least amount of time since 2010 that had 8 gold by April 11th. So congratulations to Kendrick on his achievement and it looks like things are slowly on the rise for the music industry.
