BTS Collect Another Major Honor In The U.K. With Their Latest Album
- 4 years ago
Like every other band and solo musician in the world, BTS can’t tour or do much to promote their most recent full-length Map of the Soul: 7 right now, but that doesn’t mean that fans everywhere aren’t consuming the project. In fact, the group’s latest CD continues to rack up healthy sales and streams in many territories, and now it has earned a special honor in one of the largest music markets on the planet.
Map of the Soul: 7 has just been certified silver in the U.K. by the BPI (British Phonographic Industry), making it their latest release to secure the prize.
Albums are certified by the BPI when they have hit certain sales thresholds, combining pure purchases and streaming equivalents. A silver award means the title has shifted 60,000 equivalent units. When the effort reaches 100,000 equivalents, it goes gold, and 300,000 is enough for an album to be named platinum.
