The RIAA Gold and Platinum Program defines success in the music industry.
Originally conceived to honor artists and track recording sales, Gold & Platinum Awards have come to stand as a benchmark of success for any artist – whether they’ve just released their first song, or Greatest Hits album. Explore the full range of charts to see where your favorite artist got their start.
“Whenever a Gold, Platinum or Diamond certification is earned, it represents massive engagement from an artists’ fans, and a remarkable achievement by the artist, their creative teams, and their record label. And when it is your very first RIAA award, it’s even more special. We are so encouraged by the success of this #RIAAClassOf 2022 and are honored to help celebrate their immense talents.”
