Justin Bieber is riding high on charts all around the world following his headlining performance at Coachella. The pop icon took to the main stage and played for an audience of thousands on the ground two weekends in a row, though only activity following the first of his pair of shows is reflected on rankings right now.
Bieber is enjoying perhaps his best stretch on the United Kingdom’s music charts in a long time, as, thanks to Coachella, five different albums place — three debuting and three returning – and one manages to do both. He also sees 11 different hit songs appear on at least one roster, with streaming doing most of the work to turn older tracks into hits.
On one genre-specific roster, Bieber nearly doubles his total count of rulers, but yet again, he’s forced to settle for second place with one of his most recent smashes.
“Yukon,” one of the most popular tracks from Bieber’s surprise 2025 album Swag, reenters the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart. That U.K.-based roster looks only at the top-selling tunes in those styles, and though the Canadian talent is largely known for his pop output, he has landed a number of successes that can be classified as either hip-hop or R&B in that country. “Yukon” rockets all the way to No. 2, while the popular team-up “Raindance” by Dave and Tems holds at No. 1.
“Yukon” was an immediate hit on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart and an instant top 10 win. The track launched at No. 5 in July 2025 and held in that position for nearly a month, then it vaulted all the way to the runner-up space. “Yukon” has spent five of its 30 frames on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles tally at No. 2, as it’s never been able to lead the way.
Bieber claims just one champion on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart, and he topped the tally alongside a genre favorite. Will.I.Am, the frontman of Black Eyed Peas, recruited Bieber for the electro banger “That Power.” That track debuted at No. 1 in April 2013 and held for two consecutive periods before slowly slipping downward.
While Bieber only claims a sole leader, multiple other smashes by the Grammy winner have come close to ruling, and in fact, several have peaked at No. 2. That grouping includes fan favorites like “Baby” with Ludacris and “No Brainer,” his collaboration with DJ Khaled, Quavo, and Chance the Rapper.
The original “Baby,” one of Bieber’s first big global hits, topped out at No. 2 on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart back in 2010. Another take – this one credited solely to Bieber, with Ludacris’s name notably absent – launches on the same ranking this week, and it nearly matches the all-time high of the first edition. “Baby” arrives on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles tally for the second time at No. 3.
Bieber scores three hits on this week’s Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart, and amazingly, his tunes sit side-by-side-by-side. “Yukon” breaks back in at No. 2, “Baby” debuts at No. 3, and another team-up with Chance the Rapper, “Confident,” also finally makes the list. That laid-back track begins its time at No. 4.
