The list of diamond-certified singles just grew by three.

A diamond/10x platinum certification confirms 10 million in US units. Each unit is equal to 1 paid download or 150 streams.

Each of the aforementioned singles embodies the term “smash.” The songs reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, while posting mammoth consumption numbers.
