Bieber is just the 12th act in the Hot 100’s 57-year history to succeed himself at No. 1 (an honor roll initiated by The Beatles in 1964). “Love Yourself” is Bieber’s third Hot 100 No. 1, with all three from his 2015 album Purpose; “What Do You Mean?” was his irst leader (on the Sept. 19, 2015, chart). He’s the irst artist to score three Hot 100 No. 1s from an album since Taylor Swift (three from 1989, in 2014 and 2015). He’s also the irst solo male to achieve the feat in nearly a decade: Justin Timberlake scored a trio from FutureSex/LoveSounds in 2006 and 2007. Congratulations are also in order for “Love Yourself” co-writer Ed Sheeran, who earns his irst No. 1 on the Hot 100 in any role. Meanwhile, Rihanna rockets onto the Hot 100 at No. 9 with “Work” (featuring Drake) from her album Anti, after the song and LP each arrived just before the end of the charts’ tracking periods. “Work” debuts atop Digital Songs (126,000 sold, according to Nielsen Music), where it is Rihanna’s record-extending 14th No. 1 (see pages 59 and 68 for more on Anti and “Work”). —GARY TRUST Title CERTIFICATION Artist 2 Weeks Ago Last Week This Week PRODUCER (SONGWRITER) IMPRINT/PROMOTION LABEL Peak Position Weeks On Chart #1 1 AG 2 3 2 1 1 WK Love Yourself Justin Bieber 111 BENNY BLANCO (E.C.SHEERAN,B.LEVIN,J.BIEBER) SCHOOLBOY/RAYMOND BRAUN/DEF JAM sic, sales data as compiled by Nielsen Music and streaming activity data by online music sources tracked by Nielsen Music. tracked sic, activity data by online music sources sales data as compiled by Nielsen Music and streaming 114 4 the first time.
