Eminem now has 3 RIAA Certified Diamond songs, the third one being ‘Not Afraid‘ from ‘Recovery‘, which declared Certified Diamond by RIAA back in 2014. Eminem is now the second highest-selling singles artist in the US at 107.5, only behind Rihanna who’s on the Top with 121 million song units. Check out the full list below via RIAA.
He is currently one of only two artists in American history to have received three diamond certifications for three major hits. Katy Perry is the only other artist in history to have three distinct singles go diamond, and she was the first to do it. The chart-topping hits “Dark Horse,” “Firework,” and, most recently, “Roar” have all been certified diamonds for moving 10 million equivalent copies between sales and streams. When “Roar” won her third Grammy last summer, Perry became the first artist to win three.
