Speaking about his relationship with Juice WRLD in an interview with Apple Music’s New Music Daily show sometime in July, Laroi stated;

When I first came to L.A., I was living with him for the first three months, before I moved my family out here and stuff like that. I was living with him, his girlfriend and all his friends. So, I guess over that time, especially, we got a lot of time to bond and kick it or whatever. We were around the house every day.

And things like being in the studio, even when we weren’t recording together, he would be in the studio obviously every day recording fucking a million songs. And I would go in there and just watch him and watch how he was doing shit.

Following his death, Juice WRLD earned the biggest debut sales week for his posthumous album and was US Spotify’s #1 artist in 2020.

His single “Lucid Dreams” is one of the most streamed songs of all time, with over 2 billion in the US alone.

As today marks the one-year anniversary since his passing, fans around the world have taken to social media to remember him.

Many fans took to micro-blogging platform, Twitter today to pay tribute to him him, some quoting lyrics of his songs.
