As her Brit Pop sister Emeli Sande readies to strike similar ground in the market, this week brought with it good news for Adele from the USA!
‘Roll’ into a brand spanking new ‘Chart Check’ below…
Three years after its November 29th 2010 release, the performers single ‘Rolling in the Deep’ has now been certified 8x Platinum in the US for sales of over 8 million units in the US. In doing this, it becomes the second single in US digital history to surpass the 8 million mark!
The first? The ‘Black Eyed Peas‘ ‘I Gotta Feeling‘, which has now sold 8,402,000 units in the same market!
Lifted from the singer’s sophomore album ‘21‘, ‘Deep’s record breaking success comes after its follow up single ‘Someone like You’ was certified 5x Platinum in the USA when it surpassed sales of 5 million and 2x Platinum in the UK when it arrived at the 1 million mark!
Thus far, ’21’ has sold over 25 million units worldwide- 10 million of these purchased by European music lovers and a further 10 million in the US, earning itself an ever coveted Diamond certification.
#NowPlaying: Janet Jackson – ‘Come Back To Me’…
Lana will never
I agree.
Never!!!!
Ciara couldn’t sell 60k if Future’s dreadlocks depended on it.
Britney Spears did this before.
When will your favs?
When will Beyonce.
lol
Rihanna never will.
She’s on a $200M+ tour right now, I’m sure she couldn’t wipe her ass with US single certifications.
Congratulations but Keyshia Cole Jasmin Sullivan or any other black soul singer coulda sung this same song and it wouldn’t have gone gold.
Maybe Jazmine, but Keyshia: NOPE…
B**** please. Always trying to make it look like the reason your faves flop is because of their color. Your faves flop because there’s nothing special about them.
Good for Queen Adele. But excuse me, I have a question. Why is WN flopping in the UK.
Beyonce fans should be the last ones concerned about flopping singles.
LOOOIL AND HOW MANY HITS HAS NICKI HAD AFTER 6,000 FT THIS YEAR? STFU
Rosie is seething.
Black people can sell this much, it’s just a matter of their labels wanting them to and helping them get there.
THE LIES. BLACKS CAN’T SELL THAT MUCH.
LET’S BE REAL.
IF THAT WAS THE CASE, SINGLE LADIES AND WE FOUND LOVE SHOULD BE 8X’s PLATINUM SINGLES ALSO AND THEIR ALBUMS SHOULD BE 10XS PLATINUM….
ITS ALL ABOUT DEMAND.
AND BLACK PEOPLE ARE DAMN SURE NOT HIGH IN DEMAND.
Those songs are basic as f***. Why the hell would such garbage sell 8x platinum? Accept that your faves make s***** music and don’t sell. Their skin color has nothing to do with it. Thriller is the best selling album ever and it was made by a black artist. Quality speaks for itself.
Adele> Lorde> Lama
So accurate.
Overated.
when will rihanna?
Never. Rihanna will NEVER have an album that sells over 25 million alone. LOL comedy.
Congrats
Adele slaying a bit.
Congratulations Adele! Back to my music.

I love Monica so much hun.
Something we can agree on.
That’s my fave…Can’t wait to hear that song from The Best Man Holiday Soundtrack and the New Album in Fall 2014.
Adele didn’t have to sellout to Edm to get a hit like Lana.
When will Ciara?
Rihanna wishes
Brandy fans shouldn’t come for ciara last time i checked ciara was nominated for an American music award not brandy.
LMAO at gloating over an AMA NOMINATION not even a win. How tragic.
Beyonce, when will you my love?
why is ppl coming for Lana? this post has nth to do with Lana, and a Rita Flopra stan should def not come for Lana
I don’t like this Amy Winehouse copycat
You’re being serious?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM51qOpwcIM
Not when you stan for the Madonna copycat.
Lana is critically acclaimed unlike most of the girls on here.
Has Kelly ever been critically acclaimed?
im pretty sure TAGG was critically acclaimed
UMM LANA CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED???
THE GRAMMYS, HER METACRITIC NUMBER AND HER ROLLING STONE REVIEW DISAGREE…
SHE GOT 2 OUT OF 5 STARS FOR BORN TO DIE FROM ROLLING STONE…
WHERE IS THIS ACCLAIM???
Rolling Stone is a relevant music source now? This is the same magazine that ranked Xtincta higher than Mariah in their best singers list. It cannot be taken seriously.
It’s also the same list that put Bob Dylan in the top ten, so you know Rolling Stone is a complete joke.
Congratulate her and move on damn. Ciara is trash though….
Ciara> Kelly nowhereland
Kelly Rowland 66k > C-Error 57k
#oops
All y’all saying when will _________? The question is when will your f****** fave? Adele annihilated each and everyone one of our faves from 2011-present. Have several, all of you!
Exactly
This post is a mess lol
I don’t know why Barbs are talking lol
CAUSE STARSHIPS SOLD 7.2 mill now sit
Congratulations Adele!
I love you so much!!
She’s a Goddess Tbh.
Love her, So deserving of her success and More, all Gimmicks-free.
U go Adele, Stay blessed with your little family and your Oscar. 🙂
RihAids,Beyhoe,Hagdonna will never win oscars
Beyhoe has 1.1 billion in Box Office and DVD gross with a total budget less than $390 million. The only way she has anything to do with cinema is “Skyfall”, an original song she recorded for a movie she never appeared, which happened to win an Oscar.
So I’m sure “Beyhoe” got nothing to worry about at this point.
Now go back to dusting off C-Error’s CDs on the racks of McDonald 🙂
SHE CATERED TO AN AUDIENCE…
SHE TOOK THE ADULT CONTEMPORARY AND COUNTRY ROUTE, WHICH HELPED HER SELL THOSE MILLIONS OF RECORDS…
LOOK AT 19’S AND IT BEING MOTOWN INFLUENCED…
IT BARELY SOLD 1/4 OR WHAT 21 DID…
When will Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Beyonce?
When will amanda bynes get better? 🙂
Adele OUTSOLD ALL HER PEERS
LMAO @ these comments. Im seeing more ‘when will [blank]’ than people actually congratulating her.
Smh yall are stupid lol
