Meghan Trainor’s “All About That Bass” Certified 9X Platinum; “Title” Goes Gold

One is her Grammy-nominated, chart-topping breakthrough single. One is the popular title track from her debut EP and LP.

Both recently received new certifications from the RIAA.

According to the RIAA, Meghan Trainor’s smash “All About That Bass” officially went 9X platinum on August 14, 2015. Under the terms of the RIAA’s digital singles program, the 9X certification confirms a US unit total in excess of 9 million.

One unit is equal to a paid download or 100 streams.

“Bass” was also retroactively certified 7x and 8x platinum.

On August 21, 2015, Trainor’s “Title” received a gold certification from the RIAA. The track, which has not been released as an official radio single in the US, thus boasts a US unit total in excess of 500,000.

Trainor now holds RIAA certifications for five singles. In addition to the 9X “Bass” certification and gold “Title” label, Trainor has earned RIAA distinctions for “Lips are Movin” (2x platinum), “Dear Future Husband” (2x platinum), and “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” (gold). The latter two also came within the month of August.

Her debut album “Title,” meanwhile, holds a gold certification in the US.
