Quadruple Certification

In my research, I have come across very few music artists who have achieved quadruple certification requisites - Gold, Platinum, Multi-Platinum, and Diamond.  On Wikipedia, however, there is a brief list of artists who have.

RIAA Recap -
Gold Requisite - 500,000
Platinum Requisite - 1,000,000
Multi-Platinum Requisite - 2,000,000+
Diamond Requisite - 10,000,000
