What is Reason for Staticky Poppy Noise in my Vocal Recordings?

[banterross]

Hi, Future Producers Family!

There are pops and ticks in my vocal track (first verse especially where I say "Pop some spirits, pop some drinks, pass me the...") noticeable starting around the 0:48 second mark

I know my recording levels has to be recorded better, But specifically, What can I do different?

I record in the corner of my room with Scarlett Studio CM25 condenser mic and pop filter. I use Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB interface, Cubase LE Al Elements 7 .. gain knob around the 1/2 o'clock dial. No other electronics on expect iMac desktop
