Before the fame, the designer clothes, and the chart-topping hits, Pop Smoke was just a young hustler from Brooklyn with big dreams. Known for his deep voice and drill anthems, Pop Smoke had ambition early on — and it showed when he bought his first car at just 16 years old.
While most teens were still dreaming of getting a license, Pop Smoke was already behind the wheel of his own ride. It wasn’t just about the car — it was a symbol of his independence, his grind, and his hunger to make it out of the streets.
Pop once mentioned in interviews how he hustled and stayed focused, doing what he had to do to elevate himself and his family. That first car was more than just transportation — it was his first big reward from chasing success on his own terms.

Sadly, his life was cut short in 2020, but stories like this remind fans of how driven and fearless he was from the start. Pop Smoke’s legacy lives on not just in his music, but in the spirit of determination he carried — even as a teenager.
