From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Canadian singer Justin Bieber topped the Global 200 for 13 weeks and the Global Excl. US for 14 weeks, aided by two number-one singles "Peaches" and the Kid Laroi collaboration "Stay".

The Billboard Global 200 is a chart that ranks the best-performing songs globally. Its data, published by Billboard magazine and compiled by MRC Data, is based on digital sales and online streaming from over 200 territories worldwide.

On the Global 200, fourteen singles reached number one in 2021. In addition, two other number-one singles, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey and "Dynamite" by BTS, had each previously hit number one in 2020. Sixteen artists reached the top of the chart, with thirteen—Olivia Rodrigo, Drake, Rosé, Justin Bieber, Daniel Caesar, Giveon, Lil Nas X, The Weeknd, Ed Sheeran, the Kid Laroi, Coldplay, Adele, and Taylor Swift—achieving their first number-one single. BTS scored three number-one singles while Rodrigo and Bieber scored two each, as the only acts to achieve multiple number-one songs in 2021. Olivia Rodrigo spent the most weeks at the top spot with 14 non-consecutive weeks at number one, while "Stay" by Justin Bieber and the Kid Laroi is the longest reigning number-one song with 11 weeks atop the chart.
