Pop Smoke

Bashar Barakah Jackson (b. July 20, 1999, d. February 19, 2020), better known by his stage name Pop Smoke, was a rapper from Canarsie, Brooklyn, New York. He started getting popularity from his April 2019 single “Welcome To The Party,” which was boosted by support from A$AP Ferg. Smoke also used a signature and distinguishable drill-style rap in his music, the style that is typically seen in the UK rap scene.

In an interview with Real 92.3 LA, Pop Smoke cited some of his main influences being 50 Cent, DMX and Meek Mill.

His debut project, Meet the Woo, was released on July 26, 2019.
