Logic's Album 'Everybody' Goes Gold
In less than two months, Logic’s Everybody has surpassed the 500,000 sales marker and is now certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.
The critically-acclaimed album joins Bobby Tarantino’s past two full-length LPs, The Incredible True Story and Under Pressure, with this distinction. Each has been certified gold.

Everybody has already spawned two gold singles, including the title track and “1-800-273-8255.” The latter smash, which features Alessia Cara and Khalid, also received a moving cinematic video this month.
Coming up next, the “Flexicution” MC will be performing the aforementioned suicide awareness track at the MTV Video Music Awards with a little help from Khalid. Plus, he’s wrapping up “Everybody’s Tour” in Toronto on Aug. 26.
Released in May, Everybody explored Logic’s biracial heritage and more while becoming his first No. 1 on the Billboard 200. “I wanted to tell the stories of other people who may not have the voice I do,” said the 27-year-old. “I felt the necessity to discuss these things, because I am proud to be me, I am proud of where I come from, and at the same time, it’s also bigger than me.”
