Justin Bieber has further cemented his success on the Vinyl Albums chart with his surprise 2025 album, *Swag*, reaching the top 10 for the first time. After initially entering the chart last year, the album reemerged at No. 10 following the release and strong sales of new vinyl editions. This milestone extends Bieber's flawless record on this format, having all three of his vinyl projects crack the top 10, with *Justice* peaking at No. 3 and *Purpose* at No. 7.
*Swag*'s vinyl resurgence has also boosted its presence across multiple Billboard charts, demonstrating its enduring popularity months after its release. In addition to the Vinyl Albums chart, the album reentered the Top Album Sales chart at No. 20, although this was shy of its earlier peak at No. 14. The physical sales surge has had a notable impact on Bieber’s overall chart performance.
Beyond the sales-specific rankings, *Swag* climbed significantly on several other Billboard listings. It surged to No. 6 on the Top R&B Albums chart, jumping from No. 12, and approached the top 10 again on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart by moving from No. 26 to No. 12. The album experienced its most dramatic leap on the Billboard 200, advancing over 50 places to enter the top 40 at No. 40.
This resurgence underscores Justin Bieber’s strong market appeal and strategic use of vinyl releases to propel album sales and chart success. His consistent ability to break into high-ranking positions on format-specific charts highlights a savvy approach to physical and digital music sales amid evolving consumer habits in the music industry.
