Justin Bieber Breaks The Beatles' and Drake's Records in the Hot 100

After all the issues, the drama, the breakdowns, and the arrests, Justin Bieber has finally returned to the real spotlight with a brand new album, new awards, and even a new record-breaking success.

Bieber released his fourth album entitled "Purpose" last Nov. 13, 2015, and since then, it has shown that the Bieber-fever has no sign of stopping anytime soon.

By the time Bieber released "What Do You Mean" in Aug. 28, 2015, it became his first number one single on the Billboard Hot 100, which also earned him a Guinness Record for being the youngest male artist to debut at number 1 in the Billboard. His second single "Sorry" was released on Oct. 22, 2015, and it debuted at number two on the Hot 100 list.

After gaining the biggest win in the recent MTV European Music Awards, Bieber now receives yet another record-breaking success with "Purpose."

Bieber broke the record previously owned by The Beatles and Drake for having the most songs on the Hot 100 in one week. Here are the songs from Bieber that charted on the Billboart Hot 100:
