UPDATE: Let it be known that Kendrick Lamar has officially sold a million copies in the United States (he is currently listed at roughly 1,003,000 after selling an additional 9,000 units this week). Congrats.
****************************************
Despite his album being about 60,000 records short of going platinum in the US, Kendrick Lamar was still presented a plaque by Interscope and TDE during an afterparty they hosted following the BET Experience music festival, and for good reason: good kid, m.A.A.d. City is still on track to officially sell one million copies nation-wide before the one-year anniversary of its release. The album is still selling over 9,000 copies a month, keeping it on the Billboard 200 (according to HipHOPDX).
