5SOS just released an EP and I think it sold over 100,000. Luke Bryan also debuted at number 2 with his EP.
His track released 2 weeks ago, with a music video last week was out of the Top 250 on iTunes yesterday before the album dropped ("All I Ever Need"). He doesn't have a strong digital presence like them, so we'll see. Not saying he won't, he'll just have to clock good #'s.

Coldplay is the biggest threat for both.
He didn't even really promote the single. The same can be said about Mariah's singles besides #Beautiful.
Clearly you didn't see "Journals" performance and it's Music Monday's tracks performances on iTunes.
Anything is possible.
An "album" with no promo and singles that were released every single week? No one expected it to be a success. No artist could release a new song every week and have them all smash.
did anyone really expect Austin to debut at #1 on Billboard with an EP anyway?
