The late rapper is set to be buried in a Brooklyn cemetery today.
Pop Smoke’s fans lined the streets of Brooklyn to watch the rapper take his final ride through the city before he’s laid to rest.
The procession followed a route through the Canarsie neighborhood, with a horse drawn carriage pulling Pop’s casket and loved ones following behind. There were several fan videos posted to social media that showed the casket inside a glass box adorned with white curtains and several cars following behind, including 50 Cent’s Lamborghini.

Pop Smoke’s family also held a private funeral last weekend for close friends and family. At the conclusion of today’s procession, he’s set to be laid to rest at a Brooklyn cemetery.
TMZ broke the news when 20-year-old Pop Smoke was tragically killed in what was initially labeled as a “robbery gone wrong” in the Hollywood Hills. The rapper was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he, according to his death certificate, died from a gunshot wound to the chest. The slaying now seems to be a targeted hit, with the suspects are still at large. LAPD has offered no recent updates on the investigation.
RIP Pop Smoke!
