Travis Scott & Christian Dior Collab Pays Homage To The Late Pop Smoke

Pop Smoke Reportedly Refused to Cooperate With Authorities to Snitch on Crips Before he Passed

If you’re a Pop Smoke fan, you know the Brooklyn rapper adored him some Christian Dior. You couldn’t mention Pop without Dior. Now, thanks to the friend of the late legend, Travis Scott, and creative director Kim Jones, you can’t mention Dior without Pop Smoke. 

Yesterday, Christian Dior announced its partnership with the Cactus Jack brand for the Spring-Summer 2022 collection, and this morning’s unveiling of the pieces clearly shows its honoring of Pop Smoke. 
The first item released is a white t-shirt with the late rapper’s face on the front, off-center to the right with lyrics from his song “Dior” on the back. 

Travis took it to Instagram to show the release of the collaboration by posting the pictures and with a caption saying, “U CANT SAY POP AND FORGET THE SMOKE. NOW U IN ALL THE STORES 4 EVER.” 

Back in February of 2020, 4 masked gunmen shot and killed Pop Smoke in a home invasion robbery while visiting Hollywood Hills. Four people got arrested in July 2020 for the murder, 3 were minors, but none have gone to trial yet. 

Long live Pop Smoke.

Travis Scott & Christian Dior Collab For Spring/Summer 2022 Men’s Collection

Travis Scott always finds a way to immense his popularity in ways we couldn’t imagine. First, the Houston-born artist brought back Astroworld to his hometown, and turned the sold out concert into a U.S. Music Festival. Then Scott, launched partnerships with Nike and McDonalds. Now the “Sicko Mode” rapper has joined forces with popular clothing line Christian Dior.

On Wednesday, someone saw Travis Scott in Paris wearing a muddy-brown heavy-duty work jacket with a large Dior logo fused with his logo, Cactus Jack, on the back. Of course, once they spotted him, the rumors began circulating, and shortly after, Christian Dior clarified it.

Less than 24 hours later, a spokesperson from Dior has announced that a codesigned capsule collection with Scott will sit within the Dior Spring/Summer 2022 mainline, which creative director, Kim Jones, will unveil in its entirety on Friday during Paris Fashion Week. 

As of now, besides the brown work jacket spotted on Scott, it’s uncertain what to expect from the Spring/Summer 2022 Dior men’s collection, but if history showed us anything, the partnership will be a huge success. 

Just like Travis, Kim Jones has a history of dope collaborations.  Jones not only engineered the team-up between Supreme and Louis Vuitton, but he also was the driving force behind Dior’s collabs with Stüssy, Jordan, Daniel Arsham, Amoako Boafo, and more.

Dior played a major impact on the fashion world, and Travis is holding down hip-hop, so it’s safe to say that’ll collaboration is going to go crazy, and the best thing is that we don’t have to wait long. The Dior Summer 2022 will be unveiled in Paris and on Dior’s website on Friday.
