It&#8217;s been one week since the passing of rapper <a href="/profile/pop-smoke" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Pop Smoke</a>, who was hailed as one of the leading figures in the surge of Brooklyn drill. Despite his relatively young career, the 20-year-old had earned co-signs from a ton of important people in the industry, including <a href="/profile/50Cent" class="text-word" target="_blank" >50 Cent</a>. The two had partied together over Super Bowl Weekend and during his come-up, Poppy actually dropped a freestyle over one of Fiddy&#8217;s most popular songs, &#8220;Many Men.&#8221; Reposting a clip from the barrage of bars, Fif is officially reacting to the freestyle, noting that he wishes his friend were still with us.
&#8220;I told you n***as to make sure nothing happen to him,&#8221; wrote 50 Cent on his Twitter page. &#8220;What the fuck man. He was on his way.&#8221;

50 Cent was one of the most outspoken figures to address the death of Pop Smoke last week, <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/50-cent-remembers-pop-smoke-news.104163.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">suggesting that jealousy could have been a motive</a> for his killers. Smoke was twenty-years-old when he was murdered in the Hollywood Hills, having his rental home broken into by four masked men who gunned him down. Initially, the break-in was being investigated as a possible robbery but in recent updates, it has been reported that Pop Smoke was targeted in a specific hit.
Peep the freestyle below.
