As predicted last week, Justin Bieber has snatched the #1 spot on Hot 100…from himself.

Indeed, after ending Adele‘s historic 10 week reign with his tune ‘Sorry,’ the pop prince owes yet another “thank you” to his beloved Beliebers as they’ve helped hoist its follow-up, ‘Love Yourself,’ to similar height.

The 12th act in history to do so, the Ed Sheeran-penned tune not only gives Bieber the third #1 single of his career, but also makes him the first male artist in a decade to earn three chart-toppers from one album.

Despite wielding an accompanying campaign that’s left a few heads scratched and a few egos bruised (see: Tidal), it appears Rihanna‘s ‘Anti’ will still get the last laugh.

The news comes ahead of the set’s physical premiere in brick and mortar retailers, but after industry analysts predicted it would only move 95,000 its first full week.  Proving them wrong like only she can, tuck in below to find out what the songstress’s newly unveiled projection is set to hit:
