Obasi Jackson, the brother of the late Pop Smoke, took a moment to express his and his family’s gratitude to Travis Scott and Dior for their collaborative tribute T-shirt.

“As a whole, well me personally, I definitely appreciate the love that [Travis Scott] is trying to, you know, create around Pop. And definitely with his music coming out, his new album on the rise, I definitely appreciate that, love that he’s trying to push forward in this time,” he said in an interview, adding that his family does wish they were more involved in these kinds of things. “I think the only thing is like, we want to be a little more included on it, but we definitely love what was going on. We definitely would love to meet these people that are showing love for him,” he said.

Jackson continued, “I think it’s a big step. I think it’s definitely what the fans and what the people who are supporting want. I see a lot of people chiming in and they’re loving what Travis did, they’re loving the fact that Dior is still keeping Pop’s name going. You know, that love, that camaraderie is still there, so I think it means a lot. I think that you can see more, hopefully in the future, concerning Pop in the Dior collab.”
