Justin Bieber might be the only artist bold enough to drop 44 tracks in two months—and still snag a #1 with ease.

Justin Bieber’s SWAG II just hit #1 on US iTunes, proving once again that his surprise sequel strategy is working. The album arrives barely two months after the first SWAG, and together the two projects stack up to an eye-popping 44 tracks. For an artist who’s been in the game for well over a decade, dropping this much music in such a short window shows both stamina and an eagerness to keep fans fed.

Like its predecessor, SWAG II is packed with unexpected features that make the project stand out. Hurricane Chris, Lil B (returning for another round), Eddie Benjamin, and Tems all add their own flavor, helping Bieber keep things unpredictable. The lineup feels like a mix of nostalgia, internet legend status, and genuine star power, all tied together by Justin’s willingness to experiment and blur genres.

While some artists stretch themselves thin when dropping back-to-back projects, Bieber seems to be thriving in the chaos. The two SWAG albums offer different moods and styles, but both showcase his versatility—sliding between pop, R&B, hip hop, and even playful throwback vibes. It’s less about a polished, traditional rollout and more about flooding the space with music that sparks conversation.

And with SWAG II climbing straight to the top, fans can’t help but wonder if he’s already plotting a SWAG III. Given how unpredictable this whole rollout has been, it wouldn’t be surprising if another installment is already in the chamber.
