Justin Bieber is showing NO signs of stopping with his recently released album, Believe!

The fourth studio album has been smashing records and conquering charts — most recently hitting number one on this week’s Billboard 200!

So far, Believe has sold 374,000 copies in just its first week alone, beating out even Madonna for the most first-week sales of 2012 thus far!

At only 18 years old, Bieber already has four number one albums — Under The Mistletoe, Never Say Never: The Remixes, My World 2.0 and now, Believe!

As for second place on the Billboard 200?

FOR THE THIRD TIME!

That's right, John Mayer's new album called Born and Raised has debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart!

The new record has sold about 219,000 copies in its first week!

His last two albums sold 289,000 and 317,000 in their first week, respectively!

Still, 219k is NOT bad considering he has a throat condition called granuloma. That means he's been unable to sing and wasn't able to do a lot of promotional activities for the album.

Here's what he said on Twitter:

But Lady better watch out for Carrie Underwood in music's game of thrones!

Adele’s good fortune has no end!! Well, her good fortune supplemented by BARRELS of talent…

The songstress from South London’s epic sophomore album 21 passed the 9 million sales mark in the US! 1 more million and girl hits diamond status…

Congrats congrats congrats.

Now we’re just readying our ears for that Christmas re-release people keep chirping about…

OH yeah, and then there’s that Barbara Streisand, Rihanna, Adele triplicate that MUST HAPPEN.

But will its sheer magnitude cause the Earth’s implosion?

Probably!

If only she could be around to see this…

It's on!

According to industry sources, both Van Halen's A Different Kind of Truth and Adele's 21 will be fighting for the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 next week!

We're hearing that the new Van Halen album is set to sell 180,000 to 200,000 copies, which SHOULD land it that top spot on the chart…but because of Adele's Grammy buzz, she could end up selling enough units to stay ahead of Eddie and co.

Also, Adele

A moment of silence to honor such an incredible accomplishment.

Uh! Did you hear that? Somewhere, Whitney Houston is shaking in her boots!

Adele's album 21 has done what most people would've guessed was unthinkable. As of this week, the disc has spent an astounding 17 weeks at the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart. Not since The Bodyguard soundtrack - which bowed out after 20 weeks at #1 - has an album maintained the prized spot.

She's already sunk Titanic's record … could Whitney's be next? That would be a colossal achievement, one that would cause quite the stir in the music community!

Can she do it? CAN SHE DO IT? Stay tuned!
