It’s been nearly a year-and-a-half since Pop Smoke — born Bashar Jackson — was shot and killed by five armed robbers at a rented Hollywood Hills mansion on February 19, 2020. One of the accused killers, Corey Walker, recently learned he wouldn’t be facing the death penalty if convicted.
The Brooklyn native’s Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon album was a major commercial success. The July 2020 album is the best-selling Hip Hop album of 2021 so far.
As far as the new project goes, Steven Victor and Pop’s manager Rico Beats have remained quiet when it comes to possible features. One fan theory believes pop star Dua Lipa will be making a guest appearance after she posted a video of Pop Smoke jamming out to her hit “One Kiss.”
