Janet Jackson :: Charts & Sales History

[Nerd Score]

Control, Let's Wait Awhile and Pleasure Principle still not in Janet RIAA database when they were already certified cause we see their plaques when she had that Auction she was doing of her stuff.

I hear there are rules to that. Labels can "hide" certifications. Wondering if that's what happened with those back in the day?

[Nerd Score]

Frustrating that they did not certify any albums.

These singles were not done:

Control - Gold
Let's Wait Awhile
Pleasure Principal

Miss You Much - Platinum
Alright - Gold
Come Back To Me
Black Cat - Gold
Love Will Never Do (Without You) - Gold

Again - Platinum
Because Of Love
You Want This - Gold

Scream - Platinum

Runaway - Gold


Got Til It's Gone

Someone To Call My Lover

They shouldn't be hiding sales if so cause they messing up their numbers but I don't know maybe cause it was a different time period.

If you are unsure of if your title has been certified before, you can check the riaa.com/gold-platinum database. Please note, any certifications your label has asked to embargo will not appear on the riaa.com website until the label contact requests them to be included. If you would like your certification to remain hidden from our website upon completion of audit, please select YES in the Hidden column.

That may explain why she received gold or platinum awards for "Control", "Let's Wait Awhile" and "The Pleasure Principle" that aren't visible.

So it begins...

Design if a Decade went 4x-P in Australia back in 96' (please correct me if I'm wrong).

I wouldn't doubt 6x-Platinum+ in AUS.

Does anyone have Janet's LAST certifications in other countries? Along with date of last certification? A list would be nice!

[Choley]

I hope they'll update her albums as well.I'm sure Rhythm Nation (album) is eligible for Diamond.

I hear it's over 8 million without record clubs. You might be right.

It sold over 1 million in BMG club probably well over 1 million in Columbia House too

Design of a Decade also went Platinum in New Zealand in it's 3rd week (second week at number 1).

We'll probably never get any new certifications there, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's eligible for 2X Platinum (30,000).

What Have You Done For Me Lately
Let's Wait Awhile
Alright
Come Back To Me
Black Cat
You Want This
Doesn't Really Matter

Those 7 songs are all on the pace for a platinum eligible certification by the RIAA so The Pleasure Principle, Love Will Never Do (Without You) and Runaway should already all be platinum right now.
