Justin Bieber 's long-awaited return yields a No. 1 debut for his new album, SWAG, on Billboard 's Top R&B Albums chart (dated July 26). The surprise album, teased only hours before its arrival on July 11, opens with 163,000 equivalent album units earned in United States for the tracking week of July 11-17, according to Luminate.

There's little question that Justin Bieber's surprise-release of "Swag," his first album in four years, on July 10 was one of the biggest bombshells of the year in the music world, and its huge first-week numbers reflect that.
