Bashar Barakah Jackson , known professionally as Pop Smoke, was an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He was considered by many to be the face of Brooklyn drill. Born and raised in Canarsie, Brooklyn, Pop Smoke began his musical career in 2018 upon releasing his debut single titled "Mpr ". He often collaborated with UK drill artists and producers, who employed more minimal and aggressive instrumentation than drill artists from Chicago. Pop Smoke rose to fame with the release of his breakout single "Welcome to the Party" in 2019.
Following his rise to fame, Rico Beats introduced Pop Smoke to Steven Victor in April 2019. Victor would later have Pop Smoke sign a recording contract with Victor Victor Worldwide and Republic Records. He released his debut mixtape Meet the Woo in July 2019. His second mixtape, Meet the Woo 2, was released on February 7, 2020, and debuted at number seven on the Billboard 200, becoming the rapper's first top-10 hit in the United States. Less than two weeks after the release of the mixtape, Pop Smoke was fatally shot during a home invasion in Los Angeles. 50 Cent executive-produced his posthumous debut studio album, Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon, which was released on July 3, 2020, and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, with all 19 tracks from the album charting on the Billboard Hot 100. The album spawned a string of international top-10 singles, including "For the Night" and "What You Know Bout Love".
