The honor for biggest opening day in the U.S. was previously held by Taylor Swift for "Look What You Made Me Do," a song we have no reason to believe pertains to objective thinking, so help me God. J. Cole achieved this honor by leaving so much to the imagination. Esrlier this week, he hid behind a heteronym, and although we were quick to suss things out, his devices remain a mystery to critics and fans alike.
