Wow heat. Shame I never got to listen to dude for real soon as he was on my radar he gone. What’s with all these New York niggas goin out bad...Bobby 69 and now this dude

It's gang culture my g.

If you roll around like a gangbanger you gotta follow gang rules yo.

TMZ saying it was a hit now

tmz.com/2020/02/20/pop-smoke-murder-appeared-to-be-target-hit-not-robbery

f***ing crazy

Wonder if this will cause east coast / west coast tension again

The safety of west coast rappers ( esp young ones ) may be at risk in NY at this point

no it wont.

There was a reason Pop Smoke, 22Gz and all them niggas couldnt perform at Rolling Loud. NYPD got this city on lock my g.

Irving Plaza incident changed a lot of s*** yo.

shuffle just put on dior

what's f***ed up is this guy had only seen fame for about 6 months. not even a year since welcome to the party and he gets his life taken away so suddenly so foolishly and so damn young. f*** man...it pains me to see this s***. bro was only in the game for like 8 months and someone didn't want to see him prosper.

his sound and style was new to me. unique to me. his voice was hella unique to me. the way he performed on those kind of beats was unique to me. and although he was new, I just knew he was eventually going to switch it up and evolve as an artist. I wasn't big on him like that, but I heard meet the woo 2 and checked his interviews, and that freestyle on the 50 cent instrumental, I can tell he had that energy on him. I was looking forward to seeing him switch it up and dropping more music over the years.

Shut the f*** up. Those units conspire and set up more rappers than they help.

all these rappers who have died in the last few years, have all been in their early 20's....fuck man...they haven't even lived life at that point, and now they never will

RIP young man

It’s a gift and a curse. They taste the fame for a year but lose their lives just as quick. Bruh didn’t get as far along as juice wrld or X tho

In that situation, the sheriffs did announce they knew 5 people died, but yeah idk how tmz specifically knew Kobe was one of the 5

Unless their LAPD someone just made an educated guess and they ran w it

I only read this caption but that’s sus as hell

Still hits hard every time I open music section and see this

Sure, but look at how rappers move anyway. Inviting all that s*** to be created. I don’t blame them still

I just don’t see how no one finds it strange that all major news outlets have to refer TMZ to get information now for news stories like this. How is a Hollywood tabloid always having the exclusive info now that NBC,CNN etc. don’t even have?

Like Me been stuck on repeat for the last hour, it really hits different now after bros death

There was a case about 10 years about of a girl crashing out in her dad's Porshe and the pics leaking online by the cleanup crew. Police had already had the information, but yeah a lot more got out by people just not giving a f*** and speaking on what they saw. I think there was a law made following this incident.

TMZ been playing by different rules for a minute

Also TMZ more willing to take an L on reporting something that turns out to not be true the others are still old school on that

I just don't like when the presence of cops is just see as this default good thing.

Wow

These niggas amateur. Especially the one staring into the CCTV. They left prints etc for sure

That nigga is toast
