    With the new way billboard tabulates are any of these artists in top 10 hitting Gold are platinum .

      These numbers here showcase regular album sales figures. They're not the sales + Streaming. But to answer your question, YES, they do but RIAA has different %s for that than Billboard does for their charts. They do a sales+straming and sales references too.

    Since there are like 2 gals in country could you just always include Miranda and Carrie? Would be greatly appreciated.
