Juice WRLD

Juice Wrld’s Estate Fulfills The Rapper’s Dream By Dropping “Best Friend” With Fall Out Boy

by

It’s been a contentious weekend for Juice WRLD fans since his estate finally put out The Party Never Ends. It’s the supposed final album overall from the late and beloved Chicago multi-talent. With so much more in the vault, it’s sort of hard to definitively say that this third posthumous release will be the one to leave off on. As we said, the rapper and singer’s supporters are having incredibly mixed feelings on the final product. With that in mind, there’s a chance the act’s team may reconsider their previous statements about it being the last LP ever. Despite the harsh feedback from listeners and other hip-hop names, they are getting the stamp of approval for this one move.

That would be the fact that Juice WRLD’s reps were able to put together a collaboration with pop rock band, Fall Out Boy. Fans have said that this is something that both artists were wanting to do when Juice was still with us. Besides having a mutual respect and admiration for one another, Fall Out Boy is actually a Chicago-based band. Because of that, the fact that this now exists in some form now is special enough in the eyes of the fans. Patrick Stump, the lead singer for the band, and Juice even get to share the chorus in the waning moments. On the surface, this might be a random collab, but deep down, this one means a lot to quite a few people.

“Best Friend” – Juice Wrld & Fall Out Boy

Quotable Lyrics:

Darling, I was wondering if I can
Put a yellow diamond ring on your left hand, uh
Married to that money, he’s my best man
You my lover, you my fighter, you my best friend
And we in it ’til the world ends
A understatement is me calling you my girlfriend

Juice Wrld Fans Hate “The Party Never Ends,” The Last Posthumous LP

by

After fans criticized the cover of Juice WRLD’s last posthumous album, The Party Never Ends, last week, they continued to disparage the album upon its release on Friday. Passed away in 2019 at 21 years old, the third and final afterlife release has been dissected relentlessly online. While the late rapper’s devoted followers eagerly anticipated the release, the project has been met with criticism, with fans arguing it falls short of the high standards Juice WRLD set during his career. Fans blame the superstar’s team for the album’s concept and direction.

Fans expressed their distaste for the album on social media. One user tweeted, “The last ever juice WRLD album the fans will ever stay up for, meant to honor his legacy and how diverse his talent was. And they infest it with more dog posthumous features, mixing, and depressive tracks. The mainstream will never be able to see how good he really was.” Another tweeted, “How tf is this the album they’re gonna drop after waiting 3 extra years? It’s unbelievable that they picked these songs instead of all the bangers Juice WRLD made. It literally ruins his legacy because of all the hype that was built, just for them to drop the most mid-songs.”

JuiceWrld Fans Ain’t Feelin The Last Album, The Party Never Ends

The Party Never Ends follows the legend’s 2021 album Fighting Demons. With songs like “Already Dead,” “Burn,” and “Wandered To LA,” the album explored the Chicago native’s inner demons. As of December 2021, the album debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200, but at #1 on the Billboard Hip-Hop & R&B charts. Fighting Demons was Juice Wrld’s second #1 posthumous album of the three. 

Born Jarad Higgins, Juice Wrld tragically passed in 2019 after suffering a seizure at Chicago’s Midway Airport. Emergency responders reported he was bleeding from the mouth upon arrival. The loss sent shockwaves throughout hip-hop. The one-of-a-kind recording artist left behind a legacy defined by vulnerability and raw emotion in his lyrics.

Juice Wrld Wrestles With Addiction & Anxiety On “Party By Myself”

by

There’s some belief/hope that The Party Never Ends by Juice WRLD will not be the final album. However, his estate continues to affirm that it will be. With that said, this title may be a reflection that even though this could be the last hurrah, the rapper’s current discography and legacy will never end. But in that same breath, the reason we mentioned that there’s hope that more music is coming is because of the fanbase’s view on the tape. Some have been highly critical of its quality, with folks in this camp being of the mindset that this is not how Juice would have made this album.

Additionally, DJ Scheme shared similar feelings, especially in relation to multi-genre hitmaking producer benny blanco’s inclusion. He felt the promotion and overall execution were off. But still, there are some redeemable traits to the project. “Party By Myself” feels like early classic Juice with the sad guitar loops, slow tempo, all while he sounds distraught and lost. It checks all the boxes for fans of his who enjoyed his openness to talk about his own personal issues like addiction, loneliness, and anxiety. “Party By Myself” also hits due to its earworm melody and chorus. Overall, the plan to release The Party Never Ends is up for debate. But there are some replayable tracks, with “Party By Myself” being one.

“Party By Myself” – Juice Wrld

Quotable Lyrics:

I’m leanin’ like I’m using a needle
Probably party by myself because I don’t fuck with people
Marijuana with the pills, euphoric and cerebral
I do it all to chase the thrill (Thrill)
I know what I’m doing’s illegal
But ain’t nothin’ else gon’ numb my pain like the pills and the reefer

DJ Scheme Criticizes Benny Blanco’s Input In New Juice WRLD Album

by

Juice WRLD is a beloved artist who left behind tons of unreleased music. He’s had more posthumous studio releases than albums released when he was alive. The trend of putting out new Juice music came to a close on November 29, though. The rapper’s estate dropped The Party Never Ends. Despite its title, the album is said to be the final Juice WRLD album. Reception has been mixed from fans, but DJ Scheme made it clear that he was not a fan of Juice’s final release. He even called out the producer who worked on the album: Benny Blanco.

DJ Scheme took to Twitter the day the album dropped. There was no beating around the bush when it came to his opinion, either. “Benny was not the man 4 the job sorry,” he wrote in a since-deleted tweet. He didn’t feel the pop superproducer had the right touch when it came to handling Juice WRLD’s sound. Especially since The Party Never Ends is supposed to mark the end of the rapper’s catalog. DJ Scheme may have deleted the initial tweet, but he doubled down on his stance. He tweeted a follow up in which he criticized Blanco even more.

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

Scheme felt Benny Blanco did not promote the album the way a final Juice WRLD release should have been promoted. “How the hell u help put the album together and don’t post it once,” he asked his fans. He then circled back on the belief that Blanco should not have been consulted. “Benny Shouldn’t Have Touched it,” he added. “All love to Bibby and the team always regardless.” This tweet was subsequently deleted as well.

DJ Scheme and Juice WRLD collaborated multiple times during the latter’s lifetime, so Scheme’s disdain for what he believes is a botch job makes sense. Blanco, on the other hand, did not work with Juice in his lifetime. Scheme is far from the first person who has criticized the new album, though. The artwork for The Party Never Ends was universally derided for its bizarre design and depiction of Juice WRLD. What do you think of the new album? Is DJ Scheme onto something?

Juice WRLD & Offset “Celebrate” On New Posthumous Track

by

Juice WRLD’s estate released The Party Never Ends, his third posthumous album, on Friday. The album features contributions from Nicki Minaj, Eminem, and others. One of those “others” is Offset, who appears on the track “Celebrate.” “Celebrate” is produced by Metro Boomin, and was previously unheard until a leak in December 2023. Metro previously had production credits on Fighting Demons, the second posthumous release by his estate. The track is a low-key banger, and feels like something that Juice would have released if he was still alive, though it is still clear that the track was not finished in his lifetime.

The beat is menacing, and both Juice WRLD and Offset deliver strong verse. They give some gun bars, with the two of them threatening to “put some money in the street” (putting a bounty on someone, for the uninitiated). Offset’s verse is twice as long as Juice’s, likely to balance out the fact that the unfinished nature of the song. His verse feels like something he would’ve done for a Migos album, delivering some high-quality street bars. He’s at home over Metro Boomin production, and it’s very clear. Juice WRLD’s estate previously claimed that The Party Never Ends is the last posthumous album from the rapper, who died on December 8, 2019, just six days after his 21st birthday. However, with over a thousand unreleased tracks to his name, it is hard to say if that is truly the case yet. Regardless, give “Celebrate” a listen.

Juice WRLD & Offset – “Celebrate”

Quotable Lyrics:

Thinking back to the good old days, nowadays I’m over-stressed
When I say good old days, I’m talkin’ bout He-Man, no lil’ ThunderCats, huh
Well, I’ve been down, the devil been on the prowl
He loves when I frown, make him and his demons smile
On me they dog-pile, I done got way too involved now
Hate when they play with me, told Jimmy playfully, “I’m finna burn this all down”

Juice WRLD’s Final Album ‘The Party Never Ends’ Arrives with Star-Studded Collaborations

The long-awaited final album from Juice WRLD, The Party Never Ends, is out now via Grade A Productions and Interscope Records. Featuring high-profile collaborations with Eminem, Fall Out Boy, Nicki Minaj, Offset, and The Kid LAROI and production from Benny Blanco, Nick Mira, and Cashmere Cat, the album celebrates the late rapper’s legacy as a once-in-a-generation artist.

“’The Party Never Ends‘ is finally here; I’m glad Jarad‘s fans are getting the music they have been anxiously awaiting! When Jarad was a toddler, he developed a love for globes that lasted for years; he was fascinated with spinning them. Reflecting on that, I realize that was prophetic of what would come. He grew to become the artist Juice WRLD, and touched people worldwide through his music. His lyrics were heartfelt and expressed his challenges with mental health and addiction. Jarad’s transparency made people feel like they were not alone; I consider him a pioneer in normalizing the conversation about mental health.  I hope that his music continues to have a positive impact on the lives of others around the world, and it is my prayer that people do not suffer in silence.”

– Carmela Wallace, Mother of Jared “Juice WRLD” Higgins 

Accompanying the release is a Steve Cannon-directed video for “Misfit,” a track that sees Juice turning outsider identity into triumphant self-expression. Cannon, a frequent Juice collaborator, delivers a visual tribute to fans finding solace in Juice’s music.

The Party Never Ends coincides with Juice WRLD Day 2024, happening Saturday, November 30, at Chicago’s United Center. The event will feature an exclusive listening experience, performances by Kodak Black, Lil Yachty, Polo G, and more, plus a Fortnite tournament hosted by Xbox.

The album dives deep into Juice WRLD’s colorful, complex psyche, offering fans a final, bittersweet connection to the beloved artist.

Nicki Minaj And Juice WRLD’s ‘Arctic Tundra’ Is A Pleasant Blast From Their Collaborative Past

by

Back in 2019, a Nicki Minaj and Juice WRLD track titled “Girl With The Blonde Hair” was leaked online. Following Juice WRLD’s tragic death, the collaboration fell by the wayside until now. Today (November 22), the record has officially been released as part of Minaj’s commemorative The Pinkprint (Tenth Anniversary) drop.

Renamed “Arctic Tundra,” the track is a delightful blast from the past. Juice WRLD’s signature melodic cadence previously heard on the leak seems to be untempered with. “I f*ck the blunt up / then f*ck your momma / My VVS cold like an arctic tundra / The .40 on me, woah, you don’t want no problems / And you best proceed with some caution / This song for the girl with the blonde hair / Suck me up good, give me Becky, like yeah,” sings the late musician.

Although this posthumous collaboration follows “All Girls Are The Same 2 (Insecure),” during an exchange with a fan on X (Twitter) Minaj has been sitting on this record for a while.

“Written/recorded before I was preggers,” she wrote.

With Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 – The Hiatus slated to hit streaming platforms on December 13, fans wonder if there is another archival goodie on the way.

Listen to “Arctic Tundra” above.

The Pinkprint (Tenth Anniversary) is out now via Republic. Find more information here.

Nicki Minaj Celebrates 10 Years Of “Pinkprint” With Long Lost Juice WRLD Collab “Arctic Tundra”

by

Back in late August of this year, Nicki Minaj was teasing some tracks for the then upcoming Pink Friday 2 Gag City Reloaded. That never really came to fruition outside of another leg of her expansive tour. Luckily, though, not all was lost during that past Instagram Live session. Drake and Juice WRLD collaborations were the main draw, with one title in particular holding a special place in the Queen’s heart. “Blonde Hair,” aka “Girl With The Blonde Hair” is that one with Nicki stating, “It would be incredible for me I think to have Juice WRLD on this album.”

She continued, “Because before he passed that’s what we were talking about. He recorded a bunch of stuff when he was in my studio, but I don’t like to exploit people, and people’s deaths and stuff like that.” Well, it looks like Nicki Minaj was able to work things out because “Arctic Tundra” is now officially here, and it’s found a new home. This updated title appears on the Tenth Anniversary Edition of her massively successful 2014 project, The Pinkprint. Three other tracks are also on this fourth version of the album, including other collabs with Swae Lee, David Guetta and Davido, and Parker Ignite. Overall, it’s been a long time coming for “Arctic Tundra,” with origins of this record’s creation dating back to 2018.

Nicki Minaj Treats Fans To Tenth Anniversary Edition Of “The Pinkprint”

by

Nicki Minaj has been enjoying the spoils of her legacy. She recently notched the highest grossing tour ever by a female rapper, as well as another Diamond certified single with “Starships.” Minaj decided to keep the good times rolling with a tenth anniversary edition of her blockbuster album The Pinkprint. It was a smash success for the rapper in 2014, and its biggest hits have aged surprisingly well. The real story with the tenth anniversary edition, though, is the bonus material. Nicki Minaj treated fans to four previously unreleased songs.

Swae Lee pops up on the bouncy “Turn Ya Cap Back.” The Rae Sremmurd star holds down the vocals while Nicki Minaj alternates between singing and rapping. “It’s Okay” is a hard turn into dancehall with David Guetta and Davido dropping by. It’s endemic of its era, for sure, but it still rings off. The beat is a top notch example of the dancehall craze that took over hip hop in the mid-2010s. The biggest story here, though, is “Arctic Tundra.” This song was leaked back in 2019, but had never seen a real release until now. Nicki Minaj and the late, great Juice WRLD prove that they have great vocal chemistry on this song, which is the clear standout. This Pinkprint reissue is worth your time.
