That hefty sales start, along with building streaming and airplay data, should enable the track to challenge for a No. 1 debut on the Hot 100. Standing in Bieber&#8217;s way, however, could be\u00a0current Hot 100 champ\u00a0The Weeknd, with &#8220;Can&#8217;t Feel My Face.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Sept. 19-dated Hot 100 chart, where Bieber is expected to debut, will reflect sales and streaming data for the week ending Sept. 3, and airplay data for the week ending Sept. 6.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the retail launch of &#8220;Mean,&#8221; its official lyric video premiered Aug. 28, while its music video arrived late on Sunday, Aug. 30, the same night that Bieber performed the song on the\u00a0MTV Video Music Awards.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mean&#8221; has already debuted on\u00a0<em>Billboard<\/em>&#8216;s\u00a0Pop Songs\u00a0airplay chart (dated Sept. 12) after only three days of spins, at No. 28 with 20 million in radio audience, according to Nielsen Music (and aided by hourly first-day plays on participating iHeartMedia-owned stations). It will continue scaling the list following its first full week of play.<\/p>\n<p>Upon its Hot 100 debut, &#8220;Mean&#8221; should instantly become Bieber&#8217;s seventh Hot 100 top 10 and second in a row following\u00a0Skrillex\u00a0and\u00a0Diplo&#8217;s &#8220;Where Are U Now,&#8221; on which he&#8217;s featured; the track, which he also performed on the VMAs, reached No. 8 in July.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mean&#8221; is the first single from the 21-year-old&#8217;s forthcoming studio album, which he described to Ryan Seacrest as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Wx1MBSWXqZc\">really inspirational<\/a>. Most of the songs are uplifting and fun. I wanted to use my platform in this point of my life to just reach as many people as I can in a positive way.&#8221; (The set prominently features Skrillex and Diplo, Bieber says.)<\/p>\n<p>Bieber has collected five No. 1 albums on the\u00a0Billboard 200, between 2010 and 2013. He earned his fifth leader when he was 18, making him the youngest artist to tally five chart-topping sets.<\/p>\n<p>Bieber isn&#8217;t the only star expected to surge on next week&#8217;s Hot 100 boosted by exposure at the VMAs. After The Weeknd performed current Hot 100 leader &#8220;Face&#8221; on the show, the song could soar to 150,000 sold in the week ending Sept. 3.<\/p>\n<p>VIA &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.billboard.com\/articles\/columns\/chart-beat\/6685082\/justin-bieber-what-do-you-mean-first-number-one\" target=\"_blank\">Billboard<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new single, which Bieber performed on the VMAs, could launch with 300,000 downloads sold in its first week.
