TMZ reports vandals attacking Pop Smoke’s crypt in Brooklyn. Not only did the culprits vandalize the rapper’s grave, but they also tried to get something out of the tomb.
The tomb was attacked sometime between 2:30 p.m. on Friday and 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. No cameras were present, and total damage resulted in $500.
Pictures from the crypt show the cracked marble plaque. It’s crushed to the point where one can’t read the artist’s legal name, Bashar Barakah Jackson, engraved on the stone. On the ground near Pop Smoke’s grave, investigators and journalists were able to find various debrisㅡincluding supposed joint butts and flowers.
There were also drag marks on the ground that led to Pop Smoke’s grave. Investigators established that vandals might’ve tried to pull something out of the crypt.
According to TMZ’s sources, people who found the attacked crypt immediately notified security, who were unaware of the situation. The eyewitness also said that guards returned to the crime scene to put a blank stab and caution tape around the crypt area. They also cleaned the remaining debris, but it was still pretty apparent that something had happened at the scene.
At this point, no arrests or suspects have been established. NYPD is investigating the case.
Pop Smoke Has No Music Left
Earlier this summer, Mike Dee said that Pop Smoke’s new music is never to come. After the Faith album, there’s no more of Pop Smoke’s unreleased music existing. In an interview with RAPTV, Mike commented that “instead of dropping all 30 songs, I would have waited … until now, until next year, you know.” He underlined that in such case, “his name will stay alive, instead of just dropping it all at one time.”
Pop Smoke’s latest album, however, scored #1 on Billboard. You can read about it here.
