66
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: of Pop. Me and Pop were very close. A week

67
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: and a half before he passed, we were in Miami

68
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: together and he reached out and he was like, yeah,

69
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: where you club? You out what you're doing? I says, crazy,

71
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,440

72
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: my dreaming just to perform with him. Cannot pull up,

73
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,480

74
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: So he pulled up, and I give him a lot

75
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,720

76
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: and when Pop got there, Fifty went back on stage.

77
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: He brought Pop back out and Pop performed with him,

78
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: now the first time they performed side by side. When

79
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: Pop out of stage, he pulled me to the side

80
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: of you Bro. Thank you because that was one of

81
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: my dreams to just perform alongside him. And it's too

82
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,040

124
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: He was so super happy. And I used to see

125
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,240

Speaker 1: let me tell you about pop Smoke real quick. I

138
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: never got a chance to meet the brother face to face,

139
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: but let me tell you something about pop Smoke. He

140
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: was carrying New York City on his back, and he

141
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: didn't even reach his potential yet. And I mean he

142
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: had a unique voice, a unique style, and in my opinion,

143
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: every star has to be unique in their own right,

144
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: and he sounded very unique. Man. Everybody around him told

145
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,119
Speaker 1: me that he was a humble, down to earth brother.

146
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,679
Speaker 1: All right. So rest in peace to Pop Smoke, Shot

147
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: to Brooklyn, Shout to the whole New York and we're
