One of the most talented artists from our generation, late Chicago rapper Juice WRLD will have a new posthumous album releasing next month. The news comes following teasers from Lil Bibby and others who were close with the late 21-year-old, and the rollout will begin tonight with the new single “Already Dead.”
The upcoming single is a previously-leaked song that Juice’s fans have fallen in love with. It will hit streaming services at midnight on Thursday night. Alongside the new music, Juice’s team shared a trailer for his upcoming album Fighting Demons, announcing that it will be out on December 10, which is just two days after the two-year anniversary of his passing.
