Certifications are giving people false hype.

I think H.E.R. is super talented. I am happy she won an Oscar. That's amazing for the culture.

But she does not have "hits". She has 7 gold or platinum singles and I've only ever heard of "Hard Place".

What is "Every Kind of Way"? and why is it platinum? Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" is ONLY platinum. Same goes for "I'm Every Woman".

Janet Jackson's "Nasty" is only GOLD. You expect us to think "Every Kind of Way" is as successful as those three songs? Streaming has people confused lol.
