How Many Albums Have Gone Diamond
The RIAA diamond certification is awarded when an album reaches 10 million units consumed in the United States, combining traditional sales, digital sales, and on-demand audio and video streams. As of the latest public RIAA data, fewer than 60 albums have officially earned the diamond status, with the list dominated by legacy rock, pop, and hip-hop releases from the 1970s through the 2000s. The exact count shifts as the RIAA updates its database, and the most recent additions can be verified on the RIAA's official certification search page
