It was the second time “Dior” made it onto Pop’s project after being added as a bonus track to capitalize on his potential superstar status, serving as the final album released before his passing. Pop sounded in command and more confident than ever. The production was cinematic - featuring polished beats and seamless transitions between tracks - and flaunted star power with features such as Quavo, A Boogie wit da Hoodie and Fivio Foreign. Meet the Woo 2 had Pop proclaiming on “Christopher Walking” he was the new King of New York. Meet The Woo 2 (2020)Īfter becoming the face of the Brooklyn Drill scene with Meet The Woo, Pop Smoke went for a blockbuster sequel. The track turned Pop Smoke into a household name after organically gaining buzz within New York. “Dior” was the second single from the project following, “Welcome to the Party,” which ruled over every block party in Brooklyn during the summer of 2019.
It’s grizzly and dark, with Pop’s hellish baritone holding the listener’s attention span for ransom. Produced by 808melo, the UK-inspired drill beats could’ve scored James Wan films. Pop Smoke’s debut, Meet The Woo, deserves to be in the Museum of Modern Art.
Here are the seven times “Dior” has been released to fish more streams. This makes it a total of seven times since his 2019 debut mixtape Meet the Woo, where the track found its way onto an album it doesn’t belong. The smash hit and arguably signature song from the late rapper has yet again been attached to the end of his project. But one late addition stands out - “Dior.” Most of the material will be forgotten promptly besides a teased Fivio Foreign collab. The additions included four unreleased (and unfinished) songs that likely should’ve stayed on the cutting room floor.
This makes it the second deluxe edition compiled in two weeks for the same tape. On July 31, fans awoke to another deluxe edition for Pop Smoke’s second posthumous project, Faith. Frustrated fans, look no further than the saturation of his beloved hit “Dior.” It wouldn’t be the first time they used these shameless tactics, either. It’s unknown how Pop’s team is going to move forward, but one thing they could do is continue re-releasing already existing music. The earlier reports of 400+ songs in the vault may have been exaggerated as now it seems the last of the unfinished demos has been used and abused. Pop Smoke may finally get to rest in peace.
