Let's be honest...dude would have killed whoever was in that house once he put up resistance regardless if it was Pop Smoke or J ColeThe kids who went to rob and kill him were young street dudes. Pop presented himself as a young street guy. This happens to thousands of guys across this country every day but because Pop wasn't anonymous, people want the rules of engagement changed. That's not how it works...
If Pop killed them before he was killed yall would be singing his praises but it wouldn't change the fact that he presents himself a certain way, which inherently invites conflict. It's the same thing cats did when Nip passed. Nip called a known killer a snitch. There's consequences to that, that doesn't change just because you're a famous rapper...
Pop being a famous rapper doesn't change the fact that he presented himself as a g, which inherently creates the potential for conflict with anyone who wants to push the envelope, whether you instigate it with them first or not...
I wasn't always the aggressor or initiator of violence I was involved in. You don't get to choose always when you're living like that, that ain't how the shyt works...
Drake and Tory Lanez also present as street guys...so would it be OK if he killed them too because of what theybrap about in their music?
Everybody is rapping about guns in their music now, whether they actually touched them or not
