I’m mad they took all three

Do you understand how different music would be w X and Pop in the fold

Drill would still be absolutely everywhere

Sorry but no

Wrong

Drill already is everywhere

X and juice for sure, X was a game changer in his brief time out and was gonna continue to be for a while.

All 3 are mid

X really would have stolen all the clout in the world by now

X wouldve had to sit down for a couple years at least

If Kodak never went to got into the bullshit, and got all them charges, and went to jail, Pop Smoke would be working at McDonald's if he was still alive.

Niggas trying to down play pop smoke because he didn't make emo music and he’s a real street nigga smh

X probably would’ve been in prison by now

His popularity postpartum shows how f***ing crazy his potential was.

AND he was already the real prince of NY he had the summer on f***ing lock over here already when he was alive. Wish he could’ve seen the love he was bound to get

save this bullshit ass take for hot take fridays

Delusional ass take

100% facts they should’ve knew something when all there favorite rappers was trying to be around pop for the sauce he took over the whole city in one year without a major cosign

X did not make good music

X would be huge but also have a terrible discog, and that's if he wasn't going to jail or dealing with court stuff.

i think we very often skip this inevitable outcome

This is a ridiculous take. A tragic death is great promo for a dead rapper. It will always amplify their “potential” to unlikely, unachievable heights.

When XXX died you had people saying he was Tupac for his generation.

Pop Smoke died you got niggas saying he’d be rap biggest superstar. Even with NY media machine pushing him, that is unlikely.

damn near the entire industry co-signed Pop

Pop Smoke's hype is overrated. He wasn't hot like that before death and he would've had to abandon drill to be successful.

Pop was never going to overtake Durk, Youngboy, Lil Baby, and Uzi
