Justin Bieber’s music was streamed 24.6 million times in the United States on April 12, the day after his much-talked-about set at Coachella, according to preliminary data from Luminate.

That streaming count marks a 54% vault over April 11’s 15.9 million streams and a 74% surge over April 10, the day before Bieber’s set (14.1 million).


Even more impressive: Comparing April 12 to the previous Sunday (April 5), Bieber’s catalog earned a 211% gain, as his catalog was streamed 7.9 million times that day.

With his post-Coachella bump, Bieber enjoyed his top streaming day of the year on April 12 and his biggest day since July 18, 2025, when he received 24.7 million streams. That was a week after the release of Swag, his Grammy-nominated 2025 album, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

Leading the way among Bieber’s catalog on April 12: “Yukon,” released on Swag, drew 1.3 million streams, up 21% from 1.1 million on April 11.

“Daisies,” also from Swag, followed (1.3 million streams, up 33%), while the top-performing non-Swag song was 2012’s “Beauty and a Beat” (featuring Nicki Minaj; 1.2 million, up 76%).

2010’s “Baby” (featuring Ludacris; 1.2 million streams, up 57%) and 2015’s “Sorry” (871,000, up 43%) round out the top five.

In addition to its streaming gains, Bieber’s song catalog sold 3,000 digital downloads April 12, up 297% from 1,000 the day before.

Bieber’s April 11 set during the first weekend of Coachella’s 2026 edition spurred its share of conversation on social media after he spent some of the performance playing and singing along to old YouTube videos of his catalog alongside his more recent hits.

Coachella-sparked gains for Bieber’s catalog will be reflected on Billboard charts dated April 25, reflecting data measured April 10-16.
