Earlier this week, it was reported that Drake’s Take Care album was certified diamond, meaning it has moved ten million units.

It turns out this is not true.
With over eight million sold, Take Care will likely hit diamond one day. But it could be years from now.
If it does, Drake would be the eighth rapper to hit diamond.
2Pac and Biggie both did it posthumously, while MC Hammer, Lauryn Hill, Outkast, Eminem (twice), and Nelly were able to do it when they were still alive.
Most rap fans would know the albums they did it with.
