‘s death has , and songs like “Dior,” and “Christopher Walken” serve as reminders what he was bringing to the game. While he had yet to reach the pinnacle his potential, Smoke was quickly solidifying himself as a fan-favorite, with his contribution to and the JACKBOYS’ “Gatti” marking his first song to hit the Hot 100 charts.
