Supernatural Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 Is it just automatic at 100 million, or does a label or manager have to do something like with an RIAA cert?
Mario Lopez Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Is it just automatic at 100 million, or does a label or manager have to do something like with an RIAA cert? I believe it's an automatic certification. Vevo themselves tweeted Madonna, congratulating her on being Vevo certified:
magodonna Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Is it just automatic at 100 million, or does a label or manager have to do something like with an RIAA cert? Sometimes Vevo will do a short interview with the Artist and ask them questions like "what's it feel like to have 100+ Million views on your video?" and "Did you ever think when making this video that it would be seen by so many people?" etc, etc...then they post the video of said interview on YouTube and Vevo.com, usually as a small gesture of appreciation for the Artists work and a kind of promotion for said Artist and video...sometimes these are used as commercials before whatever video is about to play...they've done this before, I've heard these types of things being aired on radio as a commercial just before the station spins that Artists music...
Arnian Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Would anyone have guessed the 3rd single from the album one be the first to be certified? Lol
zephyralexxx Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Would anyone have guessed the 3rd single from the album one be the first to be certified? Lol 3rd single from this album? It's her first single/video of her career to achieve this : )))
Arnian Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 3rd single from this album? It's her first single/video of her career to achieve this : ))) That's what I mean. Not only is it the first one but it's also the 3rd single from RH.
Guest Rachelle of London Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Would anyone have guessed the 3rd single from the album one be the first to be certified? Lol Yup. Predicted it first time I heard the song!!!!!
jonski43 Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 I wonder what effect this might have on the music industry. A song that bombed in the charts but has got 100 million views shows something is wrong! And I still don't get why Rita Ora is in the video!?!?

The fact this song has so many views and literally, a handful of stations across the world barely gave it a shot at all is VERY shady to me.
mgreece Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Ok so the world wants to see the video and enjoys listening to the song on youtube but the radio stations think she is irrelevant and wont play her new songs??? OK Maybe this video and the fact that it got so many views can turn things around I only wish we have a proper 4th single with a video and a proper release just to see how things shifted for M after releasing a song that appealed to the general public. And I hope that they will make good use of the tour with vids and teasers and stuff so that it benefits the album

To be fair, I don't think the success of the video has helped the album or sales of the song. As for Rita;

Arnian Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Another strong video would be great but BIM getting certified is definitely exciting
Platinum Gold Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 They played the remix on the VMAS for like a minute before a commercial break

encore Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 I think this is the first time that an 80's act getting certification with a new single?
madmark Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 They played the remix on the VMAS for like a minute before a commercial break It sounded SO good and perfect in that moment!!! :-)
Guest CzarnaWisnia Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Is Hung Up the next likely candidate?
Mario Lopez Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Is Hung Up the next likely candidate? Unfortunately, no. The music video for "Hung Up" is under the Warner Bros. label and not under Vevo. So even if it crossed the 100 million mark, it wouldn't count for a Vevo certification.
