The two started off by holding what appeared to be a candlelight vigil, placing hundreds of small candles down on the sidewalk in Brooklyn next to some signs and graphics calling Pop Smoke the “King of New York.” Doe Boy captioned the story, “Pop day.. Rest up.” It seems there was a moment of silence held at the vigil, everyone holding up their flashlights and remembering the rapper. 

Later, the rappers went to a house party of some kind, spending the remainder of their night drinking and listening to Pop Smoke. In the videos shared to the rappers’ respective Instagram stories, friends and fans of the rapper are smiling, dancing, and singing along to his music. Everyone appears to be keeping the event light and happy in a true celebration of life, Doe Boy calling the energy in the room “different.”
