Sade 'Best of Sade' Platinum Plaque

This Multi-Platinum plaque commemorates the sale of more than 2,000,000 copies of Sade’s 1994 compilation album, Best of Sade, including both cassette and CD formats, and was presented to Stuart Matthewman, songwriter, guitarist, saxophonist, and founding member of the band. The Best of Sade collects the band’s most celebrated tracks from their first decade, showcasing their signature blend of smooth jazz, soul, and R&B, and serving as a testament to their enduring global appeal.

Matthewman, who played a central role in shaping Sade’s sound, has earned four Grammy Awards and, in 2024, received a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nomination for his work with the band. This plaque represents both a milestone in Sade’s career and a tangible acknowledgment of Matthewman’s contributions to one of the most enduring and influential acts in contemporary music.

All consignor proceeds will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.
