"The Definition" sels?

Recommended Posts

LL Cool J's 'The DEFinition' went Gold May 10, 2004.

The album didn't come out until August 2004! :hmm: I'm sure it went platinum worldwide 'cause it went gold here in the US last Novemeber, I'd guess about 600,000 here in the US and about 1.2 million worldwide, maybe somebody here might have the exact numbers.

Are they just sales for the US? I remember hearing that he sold over 20 million albums in his career, they must mean worldwide, it's amazing how consistant he's been, I'm surprised that "Mr. Smith" only went double platinum, I thought that sold about 5 million.

It really is amazing the kind of sales that he had back in the mid 80s when he came out, going platinum back then was like selling 10 million now and yes those have to be the US sales, "The Definition" was certified gold here but it's probably platinum worldwide, I don't think Americans are the only ones that buy rap albums! :chuks:
