21-year old pop superstar, Justin Bieber claimed the top spot on the Billboard 200 chart with his album 'Purpose,' beating One Direction's "Made In The A.M." album, according to Daily Mail.

One Direction's "Made In The A.M." in its first week, sold 459,000 units. This lands them at the number two spot.

Justin's "Purpose" is the biggest selling album since Taylor Swift's "1989" last year, in November. It is also Bieber's sixth number one album.

Justin Bieber has also broken a Billboard Hot 100 record. The "Sorry" singer had 17 songs simultaneously on the Hot 100 chart in Nov. 5, marking the most titles any artist has placed in a single week, on the chart.

This breaks the "Beatles'" and Drake's record revealed Billboard. Out of 18 songs from Justin's "Purpose," 17 were on the chart.

Drake has a total of 14 Hot 100 concurrent hits twice because of his two number one albums on the 2015 Billboard. The albums are, "What A Time To Be Alive" with Future and "If You're Reading This It's Too Late."

The Beatles held the title for the most songs on the Hot 100 chart in a week for more than 50 years. At the height of "Beatlemania", the band had 14 songs on the chart in April 11, 1964.

Songs "Can't Buy Me Love" and "Twist and Shout" took the number one and two spot.

One Direction and Justin Bieber both have set new streaming records with their latest albums on Spotify.

British singer Adele may make Justin Bieber's reign short lived, as she looks to break records with the release of her new album.

The Billboard 200 chart tallies units from song sales and album sales. Ten songs is equivalent to one album and 1,500 streaming activities is equal to one album, reported Reuters.
