I highly suggest just listening to the first 20 seconds. I just wanted to learn the words of that sample, because when I listened in the car, it’s hard to hear. It already tells the story, yet you still wanna hear Pop Smoke’s voice again. It sounds so majestic and sets the tone for the song. This is my favorite song on the album, simply for the Ginuwine-Differences sample at the beginning. Yet, with the song, this future, for a moment, seems to happen right before our eyes. It’s concise and direct that Pop Smoke is obsessed with everything about you, like “your thoughts and fears,” a kind of obsessive love we all hopefully await for in the future. I know there’s a lot more I could hear, but maybe it’s good that it’s not too long. It goes really well with What You Know Bout Love, but it is brief, which kinda upsets me.
It has just a hint of swagger with lyrics referring to his affluence and self-confidence, but what makes it sound out is his complete captivation with this person. Something Special immerses you into the more affectionate and amorous side of Pop Smoke with hints from his gangster life. Its contrast with Pop Smoke’s lower voice makes a nice harmony, and I’m always a man of intermixing languages in songs, especially when it is Spanish and English. Karol G’s Spanish part is also very well done. He weaves in between this mode of first-person personal conversation with someone and a more distant third-person conversation about someone, which kinda makes the song highlight the party atmosphere, constantly talking to attendees, as if we are there to listen to it. I’m not exactly sure if it’s a guitar sample, but it creates a flowing ambiance (my best way to describe it), which further emphasized the theme of the song. I like the little instrumental part in between the 808s. Pop Smoke’s voice sounds a little more relaxed and calm here, which helps give the song and atmosphere this sort of vibe. I’m real discreet, like a thief in the night (Look)”Įnjoy Yourself gives a smooth, lowkey party vibe where everybody is feeling themselves. “Boy, I’ll tell you once, won’t tell you twice Pop Smoke’s chorus along with solid features come together to make this song a hit. I think DaBaby better fits this song, to be honest, especially considering how his songs express similar themes to this one. His fluid, low-pitched voice further emphasizes this serious theme along with Lil Baby and DaBaby as features. With this, it creates a sense of intimidation and prowess, and the constant 808s and kicks accentuate more swagger and style. However, he makes sure not to give too much away about the streets, similar to how he operates in them.

Let’s get into the album: Shoot For the Stars, Aim for the Moon His album cover. Your opinions may be different from mine, but I am always willing to discuss them. Because this album really stepped up his game, I will be doing a more in-depth analysis of it based on some of my favorite songs. Today, I will be reviewing his posthumous album, released on July 3, 2020. But, Pop Smoke showed some different sides to his music ability here. Maybe they are doing the theme of repetition, emphasizing the importance of a particular issue. Artists can make similar sounding music, but the words and meaning can elevate a song. It just sounded a conglomerate of party music. This album changed my perception of him because as I said, I thought that his music didn’t appeal to me at first. I never thought he had bad music in fact, I just didn’t prefer his music. I think his freshman album was okay, but this album really started to put him in the game. I spent this summer listening to his newest album a lot because it got a lot of hype. Pop Smoke was an upcoming artist in the rap game, garnering potential and harvesting comparisons to 50 Cent and East Coast rappers.
