Pop Smoke’s “Dior” has debuted at No. 49 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming his first solo track to earn a spot on the chart. The late rapper previously earned a Hot 100 entry with “GATTI,” a collaboration with Travis Scott from last year’s JACKBOYS compilation.
The Brooklyn-bred artist was shot and killed during a home invasion in Los Angeles on February 19. According to Nielsen Music/MRC Data, streams of the slain rapper’s music experienced a 392 percent increase following his death.
Pop Smoke racked up 24.7 million on-demand streams in the U.S. on the day of his passing. “Dior” alone pulled in 5.2 million streams.
“Dior” set a new career peak on the Hot 100 for Pop Smoke, who had reached No. 69 with “GATTI.” The single originally appeared on his debut mixtape Meet The Woo, which was released in 2019.

Only because people were curious what he sounded like since his name went viral when he died. He was trash though. He would’ve never made it big
Maybe but he did make it bigger than you so SFTU!
My dog’s dick is bigger than you…bitch.and WTF is SFTU lame nigga lol STFU with your failing evenwithautocorrect ass. LMAO.
Plenty of simps to praise another fucking glorified simp, look at Lil Yachty. Case closed.
My G, I honestly, somewhat agree with you. Up until he died, I’d never heard his music. So afterwards, I went to take a listen. The kid’s music wasn’t good at all. It wasn’t even average. With that said, could he have gotten better? That’s a question we’ll never know. May the power’s that be bless his soul, but I don’t believe he was going to be as big as his new found fans thought he was going to be.
*hand rubbing intensifies at the label*
Pop Smoke had some of the new young crowd he might not have blew up how they made it seem but he would’ve ate much more than alot of these artists that been out!! These younger generations are way too arrogant/ignorant and that was ultimately his demise!! R.I.P Pop I bumped a few of your joints!!
