Rapper Juice Wrld's Drug Addiction... Dead at 21!
On December 8th, 2019, just six (6) days after his birthday - Jarad Anthony Higgins known as rapper "Juice Wrld" passed away after suffering a cardiac arrest. He was on a flight from California to his hometown Chicago and upon arrival, it is said that he swallowed a handful of painkillers in an attempt to hide them from authorities.
The pilot of Juice Wrld’s private jet reportedly told ground officials that the rapper and his team had guns, which as we know is prohibited in air travel.
Several members of Juice's management team aboard the flight attested that Higgins had taken "several unknown pills" which included Percocet pills.
On the scene it was said that Juice began convulsing and seizing, after which two doses of the emergency medication Narcan were administered as an opioid overdose was suspected. Higgins was transported to the nearby Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead. Guns and 70lbs of marijuana were found in luggage aboard the
Higgins' funeral was held on December 13, 2019, at the Holy Temple Cathedral Church of God in Christ in Harvey, Illinois. Friends and family were in attendance, including collaborators Ski Mask the Slump God and Young Thug.
On January 22, 2020, the Cook County Medical Examiner stated that Higgins died as a result of toxic levels of oxycodone and codeine present in his system.
Juice Wrld has an estimated net worth of $6 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. He was only 21. 😔
Fellow artist Boosie Badazz suggested that the pilot of the plane was ultimately responsible for Higgins' death, referring to him as a snitch. Rapper Ski Mask the Slump God, who collaborated with Higgins on the hit song "Nuketown", said on Twitter "They keep taking my brothers from me", referring also to longtime collaborator XXXTentacion, who was shot and killed in June of 2018. Lil Yachty, who remixed Higgins' song "All Girls Are the Same" mourned his death along with Lil Uzi Vert, Drake, The Weeknd and others.
Higgins' mother Carmella Wallace expressed her hope that her son's legacy will help others in their battle with addictions saying:
"Addiction knows no boundaries, and its impact goes beyond the person fighting it. We hope the conversations he started in his music and his legacy will help others win their battles, as that is what he wanted more than anything. We know that Jarad’s legacy of love, joy and emotional honesty will live on."
Ex-girlfriend Alexia of Juice Wrld revealed in an exclusive interview with DailyMail that he would take up to three potent Percocet pills a day and mix the drugs with a cough syrup concoction called "lean" before their relationship fell apart when she tried to help him get clean. She knew what Higgins had died from before the reports came out, as she witnessed the rapper's heavy drug use daily while they dated in 2018.
In the exclusive interview, Smith, from Livonia, Michigan, detailed her relationship with Higgins, his struggles with depression and how she was forced to walk away after their relationship turned violent and left her with bruises when Higgins went through withdrawal.
Even though we lost a soul I do hope this is a lesson for many other young men who think it's cool to be "cool".
It's really not worth it people, if you are having problems with drug addiction I ask that you seek help. Talk to someone... before it's too late. ✌
