Say what you will about his legacy, but there's something undeniably universal about his music, with many songs from both Thriller and Bad having solidified themselves as dancefloor mainstays for a wide variety of generations.
When it comes to replay value, it's evident that few artists can rival the sheer scope of Michael Jackson's catalog. Speaking of hits, his Number Ones album also gained ground, locking down a fifth platinum certification. Originally released in August of 1987, the project featured another slew of timeless Jackson hits, including the title track, "Dirty Diana," "Smooth Criminal," "The Way You Make Me Feel," and many more.
His diamond Bad album also secured another RIAA certification, upgrading from 10x platinum to 11x. Since its release in November of 1982, the Quincy Jones-produced project housing such singles as "Billie Jean," "Thriller," "Beat It," and "Wanna Be Startin Somethin," has gone on to sell a total of thirty-four million albums, placing him second only to The Eagles and their Greatest Hits Collection (38x platinum).
