The Legendary King of Pop Michael Jackson earns a new certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for his breakout fifth solo album Off the Wall for 10 million units sold in the U.S.
Originally released in August of 1979 via Epic Records, Off the Wall peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 200 albums chart and topped the Billboard Top Black Albums chart and includes the No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 singles "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" (which won the Grammy Award in the Best Male R&B Vocal Performance category) and "Rock with You".
Michael Jackson now ties with Whitney Houston for having the most certified Diamond albums by a black artist with three.
