It is the second-highest one-week consumption total so far in 2020, surpassed only by The Weeknd’s After Hours in its first week of release in late March. It is also the highest one-week consumption total for a female artist since Celine Dion’s Courage in November 2019. Her catalogue also posts chart gains, including her last album, Lover, moving 25-17, and 1989 bulleting 98-68.

J. Cole Shouts Out The Scarborough Shooting Stars Basketball Team at Scotiabank Arena: Toronto Concert Recap

The North Carolina rapper came to Toronto for the first of two dates on his The Fall-Off Tour, where he went bar for bar with diehard fans, remembered his uneventful local basketball career and welcomed a surprise opening performance from Toronto's Casper TNG and 100BandPlan

J. Cole came to Toronto for the first of two dates at Scotiabank Arena on July 27. It's part of his sprawling The Fall-Off Tour, which has been rumoured to be his last major global tour – at least in this current iteration.

There was some anticipation about what Cole might do at this Toronto stop. He was a close witness to rap's highest profile recent rivalry after his song "First Person Shooter" with Drake accidentally prompted Kendrick Lamar to ignite the beef with his "fuck the big three" line. He briefly participated and then publicly bowed out, mostly disengaging from the whole affair save for a few defenses of the Toronto rapper.
