Billboard has those number at 117K and 142K, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everything Is Love&#8221; takes #2 on both sets of charts.  Hits reports the sales number at 70K and consumption number at 125K.  Billboard reports 70K in sales and 123K in total units.<\/p>\n<p>5 Seconds Of Summer&#8217;s album had some clear advantages.  Its pure sales were boosted by ticket-album and merchandise-album bundles, while the album also benefited from a full week of availability.  &#8220;Everything Is Love&#8221; was not even available on Friday; the album was also restricted by various exclusivity windows upon arriving on Saturday (it was initially only available on TIDAL, then only on premium streaming and digital download services).<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, The Carters (Beyonce and Jay Z) are more established stars who command considerably more media attention.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;
