POP SMOKE

The second posthumous album from Brooklyn drill pioneer Pop Smoke, Faith pushes the musician's remaining verses further toward radio-ready trap, in a sharp swerve from the drill-centric approach he embodied during his lifetime. The record boasts the rapper's most star-studded guest list to date: Faith combines Smoke's vocals with those of popular trappers like Future and Quavo, iconic MCs including Kanye West and Rick Ross, and even chart-topping pop stars Dua Lipa and Chris Brown. Though the set takes a much lighter, more pop-centric tone than Smoke's early work, fans of his original sound will find refuge in the album's drill collaborations -- the rapper booms alongside Rah Swish on "Brush Em," glides across "30" with Bizzy Banks, and demonstrates his strong synergy with Lil Tjay on the auto-tuned "Genius."
