- Pop Smoke cannonballed onto the scene with his gruff voice, becoming the face for Drill music outside of the UK, specifically in New York City. The songs that made him a star like “Welcome to the Party,” and “Dior” were only the beginning. We’ll never know how far he would’ve gone, since he was killed at just 20 years old in the Hollywood Hills in 2020. One year later, his brother, Obasi, opens up about how he and his family are doing. Inside Edition Digital’s Stephanie Officer has the story. #InsideEdition
Don’t think anyone knew Pop Smoke as the rapper with a baby face, if anything he looked older than 20
I’m sorry but I died when she said that 😂
Yea Fax
"20 years old but I move like a vet" he knew that himself
I was about to say this loooool
Lol fr
The fact that all his killers were younger than him is f**ked up
Fax
So if the killers was older its ok
@@quotedcam6087 that's not the point. It just makes the tragedy worse that ppl who were younger than an already young pop killed him.
SuCH A SENSELESS DEATH... LIKE WHY????!!!!!!
QuotedCam that’s not even close what they were saying
I really miss him he was a genuinely good and nice rapper that didn’t deserve to die
😔
If he had never showed that address he would've been here
@@jimmyflorez anybody can get anybody address its public information you just have to look a little deep
@I don’t know My name go somewhere else pls
@I don’t know My name no
I discovered Pop after he passed away. I now play his music every day. Devastated he got taken away from us. His legacy will live on. From Sydney Australia
This exact thing happened to me with nipsey hussle. I never knew about him until earlier this year. I was devastated when I found out he passed. Still so sad about it. I play his music all the time.
I play his music everyday too. Long live the Woo. 🙏🏿
🔥🔥🔥💪👆🤘🤘🤘🌴
It’s crazy how they have to pass to get y’all attention
@DDoc88 i did not even discover pop when he passed away. but he's the best and I listen to his songs every day. I'm still devastated he got taken away from us so so soon. but his legacy will live on. from London England

@@NOVA-jr3wg This kid has a fortnite playlist and is talking
I wouldn’t say legend but he would’ve become one for sure because his style was different compared to everyone else
@@NOVA-jr3wg obviously the fortnite kid smh.
It’s said, because I feel he was gonna change tha rap game. He wasn’t no mumble rapper, dude had talent frfr💯
Please!! Why we always say that with every slain rapper?? Pop, Lil Snupe to name a few
May Allah forgive his soul, he was Muslim. I posted a video about that a month ago.
@@weliz02 does it matter what his religion was? He was human, first. A loss is a loss irrespective of creed, colour or sexual orientation
*Sad 🤷
Ya ya y’all say that cuz he dead
I’ve never felt this sad about a person , I hadn’t even met him but he was just such a genuine guy and had good intentions 🙏
Yes he was if you look at his older videos you can see he was not into the street life at all and he had a really good heart ...theres a video of him being bullied too in highschool it was sad
I miss pop smoke
I totally agree smh this was pure hate smh so beautiful regardless of what he did smh he was blowing up in a major way fast 💨
Yes good intentions but yes lost it all
Killers don’t care how they kill a whole family when they murder I feel his brothers pain all to well
They were raised well by their mom and dad. Look how they speak and think. They way mature for their ages
pop smoke had a BMW and a glock at age 17 and living in bedstuy… i don’t think parents would’ve wanted that tbh 🤣🤦🏽♂️
@@triple6keyz497cuz he was born broke so he had to hustle to make money
@@xentris2853 yeah
@@xentris2853 he can make clean money tho
@@honeycrispapples7748 again if he could I think he would if he was young couldn’t get a job cuz either school or he didn’t have the requirements and also was introduced to the streets at a young age
Let's not forget that we lost the artist POP SMOKE, this man lost his brother BASHAR 🙏💔
I feel the pain in his bro voice The fact that all his killers were younger than him is f**ked up RIP POP SMOKE

stolen comment from his what you know about love music video comment section
Obasi is an amazing brother and so intelligent, humble, thoughtful, eloquent, etc. God bless him and his family. God help the offenders who made such a terrible decision.
The lesson he taught me is be careful of posting your location and don’t floss on social media. Rest In Peace
Take heed stay safe bro 💯🙌
Wdym floss
@@mattanderson1608 flex...show off
He wasnt flossin, people really watch you & say that... it about watching company you keep

He was unique with his dance moves and memorable voice
Just found out pop smoke is 20.. Literally blew my mind. Rest in peace. To young.
He was the only US drilla that could replicate the UK sound in his music 😪 we miss him here aswell
Wish that Skepta and Pop collabed
@@kevin02era50 yep , or pop and abra cadabra . He’s the one who inspired pops sound
@@kevin02era50 him skepta and asap rocky have a song in the vault
@@kevin02era50 skepta and pop have a song with kid cudi...look it up bro 🔥
How you drop the gun gangstalicious that is not gangsta
Pop wasn’t even a year into this rapping stuff he was up it’s sad after he passed he topped the charts and went #1
Fr bro only had about 7 months of mainstream attention
14 months since his first song was recorded to his death, and look where he was, and look where his SSAM brough him, he woulda been on top of the top rn
Pop smoke is in a movie
Imagine him being alive now...
Can't describe how top he would be.
@@M._mkid Yeah. Boogie. If he was still alive, I wanted to see him in more movies while making more music.
Pop smoke was a legend he was only rapping for a year or 2
not even
That kid is a legend Rip Pop smoke big hug from Holland to he's family
Inside edition rly trying their best to get his bro to cry or sum. Like chill out with them questions “do you go to therapy “ that’s his business. Don’t stay reminding him of stuff he trying to forget.
I dint think he will ever try to forget anything. Thats not healing him he seems good to talk about it
Uhh taraji asked him the same question...hes not going to forget this ever. That was his bro.Theres constant reminders of pop everyday
This felt like it was yesterday man RIP Pop, Smoke
You jus hopped on the train you cringe
Not going to lie I didn’t know him or his music until he died. I love his deep voice. RIP
@k.a5765 really don't you know any of his songs
I know his pain... lost my sister at 17 back in 96... still ain't right! 😥😔 R.I.P Pop!
obasi is so cool...god bless him and his family!!!🙏🏽

Masshalah may allh protect u
I think Pop smoke belived in god, his mother claimed he was really close with god. Which is a good thing! I hope he’s in heaven now. I hope he didn’t believe in allah. I would be disappointed
@@swiftswamps0821 he was a Muslim he converted when he was 18
I really miss him he was a legend but now he is in a better place rest in peace
Am telling you this one really hit home, I play pop smoke music so much that those in my own country Jamaica 🇯🇲 they just got to know him... # pop your legacy it will always live on...
So sad and tragic!!! Pop Smoke will truly be missed!!! Blessings to his family!!! I pray God comforts them forever!!! We will never find that unique voice again!!! We were all robbed of a true legend!!! I also pray his killers pay for this!!! If they haven't already!!! Rest up Pop..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

RIP POP Smoke. Prayers going up for Mom and Dad and family 👪 members. Gone not Forgotten. 😭😢🌹💐🌻
Man, pop smoke is a legend fr❤️ He gives me hype anytime I play his songs🔥 rip he won’t be forgotten trust me ☝🏽
Four males that entered this house at such an odd hour? It appears to have been a hit job. I don't believe it was a random shooting. Somebody knows what went down but is afraid to speak up. What a shame that this even had to happen.
robbery bro
RIP POP SMOKE 💫 THE SMOKE WILL NEVER CLEAR 🤞🏼
Depression is real. I wish nothing but the best for bashard’s brother, mom n pops and family n friends. May Bishard Rest In Peace He will Forever be Loved n Missed 💙😪
His brother is so articulate... RIP POP
The light that burns twice as bright burns twice as fast. RIP to our generations realest rapper 🙏 potential was crazy!!!
They really said "known for his baby face"

Anyways R.I.P to the Legend. POP SMOKE. ALWAYS WILL BE THE KING OF NY

He died one day before my birthday R.I.P to the WOO
Happy Birthday! 🎂
So today ur birthday
Did she say babyface?? I thought he was 32 when i frist saw him smh😂
It really makes me upset that we've lost such an amazing rapper so young, he did all of that in such a short amount of time what a legend, Pop was so different from all the same music you hear these days, R.I.P Bashar Jackson aka Pop Smoke fly high WOO, and to his family may all the strength be with you!!
He will be forever young, and beautiful ,and his music will keep his spirit alive on earth. God rest your sweet soul Pop Smoke.
Just think that if Pop filmed that storie without accidentally showing his adress, we wouldn't be missing another legend.
Theres a reason Mike Dee doesn't do interviews...
He knows exactly what happened in that house and he still hasn't spoken out or anything. He cursed out his own man's brother and he doesn't check up on the family at all. He knows he's guilty.
@@bombzavon3370 He pendin...
@@eurostep2530 I don't want him dead tbh I just want the truth. Bro is so sus and all of pops fans know something is up. Dread woo even said if he was there with pop then bashar would still be here. Mike was supposed to protect the breadwinner who gave him thay lifestyle along with everyone in the party. Everyone failed pop that night.
