POP SMOKE SET
FOR BIG DEBUT (UPDATE)

The late Pop Smoke is on pace for a runaway #1 on this week's HITS Top 50 with his highly anticipated debut full-length, Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon, via Steven Victor's UMG imprint Victor Victor and Republic. Streaming over the holiday weekend kicked the set into overdrive.

Pop's posthumous LP is slated to debut in the 200-225k range, with audio streams approaching 225 million. This is what specialists in data analysis describe as "hella big." His previous release, breakthrough mixtape Meet the Woo 2, opened at #7 with 36k in February.

Pop Smoke (Victor Victor/Republic) 200-225k total activity, 35-45k albums

Guests on the album include DaBaby, Lil Baby, Roddy Ricch, Future, 50 Cent, Quavo, Swae Lee, Tyga and Karol G, among others. The set includes the late rapper's hit track "Dior" as a bonus cut.
