it doesn't seem likely, since RR sold 17k last go, Eternal selling 19k is very sound with a national tv appearance to boost awareness
looking at other chart debuts, again it is a reflection of the state of sales in the industry
"In addition to BEP domination, there were three other debuts in the Top 10 this week. Latin quartet Aventura entered the chart at #5 with Last, selling 47,500 and Rapper Mos Def started at #9 with Ecstatic, moving 39,000 units for his second Top 10 set. Former Pretty Ricky member Pleasure P unleashed his solo debut, The Introduction of Marcus Cooper, and bowed at #10 with just under 38,800 sold. Elsewhere, Sonic Youth bowed at #18 with The Eternal by selling just over 19,000, and Teena Marie started at #20 with Congo Square, moving 18,200."
i also was noticing the amazon sales page very consistant during the pre-order and release week and peak all the way up to #18 of all music, so there isn't really a reason to believe otherwise
