J. Cole’s “4 Your Eyez Only” crossed 500,000 Billboard album units (sales + track sales/10 + audio streams/1500) on December 16.
It should therefore come as no surprise that the album has officially earned a gold certification from the RIAA, which also accounts for video streams.
The chart-topping album received the award on January 11, 2017.
The award confirms 500,000 in US units; a unit is equal to 1 album sale, 10 track sales or 1500 audio or video track streams.
