Justin Bieber is reportedly set to top next week’s Billboard 200 and Hot 100 with his new album, ‘Justice,’ and its latest single, ‘Peaches,’ respectively.

His latest bid to ensure chart victory for the week that follows comes courtesy of the Triple Chucks deluxe edition of the project, which hit streaming outlets Friday (March 26).

Expanding the original 16-song effort to a whopping 22 tracks, the already star-studded LP (which featured the likes of Chance the Rapper, Giveon, Daniel Caesar, Khalid Burna Boy, Benny Blanco, and more) calls on more of Bieber’s celebrity friends to assist his bid for chart domination.

Look inside to hear new ‘Justice’ duets with Lil Uzi Vert, DaBaby, Jaden Smith, Tori Kelly, and more.

To toast the beloved series, TIME Studios and ABC thought it fitting to assemble even more of Tinseltown’s favorites to pay homage via a 2-hour TV special.
