Pop Smoke’s debut album is finally here and it was met with criticism from his core fan base because there weren’t any appearances from Brooklyn Drill rappers.
“50 Cent suck yourself you dusty yute, all these bs features with no Fivio, Fetty, Sosa, Rah, even Gwuapo this shit don’t even sound like a Pop Smoke tape kmt,” @416_ns tweeted.
Many users, especially Brooklyn natives, voiced their opinions about Quavo appearing three times on Shoot for the Stars, King Combs, Tyga, and especially Karol G.
But Tyga came through with the receipts showing that the Brooklyn Drill star’s freshman project is exactly how he visioned it. “U did it broski! Yo vision was different🔥
this album special. Drop a 💫💫 woo vibes forever🕊🕊 #shootforthestarsaimforthemoon #restinparadise #bigwoo,” he wrote in his Instagram caption.

“I got on for you,” Pop texted the West Coast rapper before T-Raw prompted him to send the song while he’s in the studio.
Tyga was clearly satisfied with the snippet and suggested that Pop shot the video in the Caribbean. “Let’s add one of those Latin chicks on it,” the Meet the Woo rapper said. “Karol G,” Tyga quipped.
The two artists went back and forth about the development of his album as late as February 12th, a week before he was gunned down. Pop Smoke even sent Tyga his record with Roddy Ricch.
“Get shawty on that for me,” Pop, born Bashar Jackson requested referring to Karol G after the “Rack City” rapper sent him a file named “Enjoy Yourself” via iMessage.
Well there ya have it folks! The features on the album were pre-selected by the late rapper before his untimely death, and 50 Cent didn’t “randomly” select them like many fans are assuming.
