An upcoming and rather successful mainstream rapper, Pop Smoke was and killed Wednesday morning in what appears to be a home invasion robbery.

Pop Smoke who was just online 19 hours ago and even had a fresh haircut from Marcus Paul(@lordfader1) is sadly no more. He was just 20 years old.

According to law enforcement, as reported by TMZ earlier, two men wearing hoodies and masks broke into his house in Hollywood Hills at around 4: 30 AM and fired multiple shots critically and wounding Pop Smoke.

The two assailants flee from the scene on foot.

Pop Smoke was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in West Hollywood by an ambulance where he was pronounced dead.

There’s no arrest that has been done in regard to the shooting but one man who was placed in handcuffs by cops was later on released after it was determined that he was not involved in the shooting.

It’s not clear if Pop Smoke knew the shooters.

The two suspects who broke into Pop Smoke’s house in Hollywood Hills have not yet been caught and they have not yet identified.

Rapper Pop Smoke earlier on this month released his recent project dubbed ‘Meet The Woo 2 (Deluxe)’ scheduled to perform at the Hard Rock Miami in Miami together with A$ap Rocky, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Post Malone, DaBaby, Roddy Ricch, Lil Uzi Vert, Young M.A, Young Thug, Lil Baby and so many more in May 2020.
