Three Jason Aldean singles recently earned new digital certifications from the RIAA. Two are of the multi-platinum flavor.
As of February 1, Aldean’s smash “She’s Country” is 3x platinum in the United States. His recent radio hit “Burnin’ It Down” earned a 2x platinum two days prior.
January 29 also brought a platinum honor for his “Hicktown.”
Barring a data entry error, the singles would have needed to meet different criteria for certification. As of February 1, a digital unit is equal to 1 paid download or 150 streams. In going 3x platinum, “She’s Country” possesses a unit total of at least 3 million.
The January certifications (2 million for “Burnin’,” 1 million for “Hicktown”) would have been subject to a 1 paid download = 100 streams = 1 unit conversion rate.
