New Jay-Z Album Will Not Go Platinum Off Samsung Deal

FUSE TV - New Jay-Z Album Will Not Go Platinum Off Samsung Deal

UPDATE: (7/1): The RIAA has amended its rules and has decided to award the rapper platinum certification immediately after the album is released. Read their rationale and full statement on their site.

When Jay-Z announced that Samsung would be buying one million copies of his upcoming new album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, and distributing them via app to Galaxy phone owners, the music world went nuts with variants of "Jay-Z's New LP Already Went Platinum!" headlines. Some of this, inevitably, was due to parroting of Jigga himself, who tweeted earlier this week:
