Death?

TMZ reports that Juice Wrld died today, I don't know about any other sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joey125a (talk • contribs) 14:57, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Likewise, I found no other sources, except TMZ. The Wikipedia entry on his death could be false and thus irresponsible. Per TMZ, he had a seizure, and was bleeding from his mouth. That doesn't mean that the seizure caused his death. Did the seizure cause him to bite his tongue? Did his actual cause of death result in stress that caused the seizure? Let's wait for an autopsy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:F246:DC00:79:F9BF:DDB0:B778 (talk) 15:19, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Juice's flight from California landed early Sunday morning and, after deplaning ... witnesses tell us he suffered the seizure while walking through the airport. Law enforcement sources say he was bleeding from the mouth when paramedics got on scene.

We're told Juice -- real name Jarad Anthony Higgins -- was still conscious when he was rushed to a hospital. However, he was pronounced dead a short time later at the hospital. The cause of death is unclear at this time.

Juice Wrld's major-label career was just starting after he almost climbed to the top of the charts in 2018. His first huge hit came in summer 2018 with "Lucid Dreams" ... which made it to #2.

In fact, it was that song's success that drew the attention of Interscope Records ... which signed him to a multi-million dollar contract.

Juice also had a feature on Travis Scott's enormous "AstroWorld" album, singing the hook on the track, "No Bystanders."

Higgins' stage name was reportedly inspired by Tupac Shakur's performance in the 1992 film, "Juice."

It was said that Juice Wrld swallowed a bunch of percs to hide from authorites in the airport ElijahRus (talk) 19:20, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

From what I read,Juice Wrld is still alive. Luhh. Kimberly (talk) 12:13, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Death conspiracies

Some people are thinking that Jared's Death on Sunday was FAKE. Due to a lot of Coincidences such as Juice Wrld - real name Jarad Higgins -posted a tweet in April 2017 saying: "My goal is to get overly famous, shine for a couple years.. then fake my death."

Desperate fans have dug up the tweet, clasping to the hope that his death could potentially be fake.

One follower wrote today: "Please Juice. Please don't make this tweet a reality. We won't be mad. We just don't want you gone."

Another said: "Okay so please tell me this was all fake."

"For the love of all that is holy I pray to God this is fake and he is really just faking it," wrote one devastated fan.

According to TMZ, the singer was bleeding from the mouth but was conscious when he was taken away by paramedics.

Sadly, he died in hospital a short time later. or did he?

More things related to maybe faking his death included lyrics in his song "Legends" were the lyrics "we Aint making it past 21" his 21st birthday was a few days before his death.

He also referenced John legend in his song who also died on December 8th. juice wrld is dead

RIP AmeerLawati27 (talk) 15:25, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Moreover, FOX News reports that some fans had faked seizures prior to his death. Could this all be a big PR stunt, and the police, paramedics, media, coroner, hospital staff and 500+ other professionals who saw his lifeless body are all part of the conspiracy??? Magnolia677 (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Hey @AmeerLawati27:, this seems interesting to me and I feel we should make an article about this conspiracy as it is wild and although unlikely, possible. Let me know what you think, AwesomeJedi (talk) 04:14, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Death

Juice WRLD died at the age of 21. Celebrity news website TMZ said he died after suffering a seizure at Chicago's Midway airport on Sunday morning. The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office said the cause was unknown ElijahRus (talk) 18:59, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

POV

some of the passages in this article are not particularly encyclopedic, and read as if they were lifted from a fan site. PurpleChez (talk) 19:59, 9 December 2019 (UTC) Hey @PurpleChez:, it is unclear if you're asking a question here or not. Which sections do feel are not encyclopedic, and quotes from the article would help. AwesomeJedi (talk) 04:09, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

The "lyrical themes" section seemed to me to be especially so. It's very well-written, but maybe not encyclopedic. Just a bit flowery. No big deal though. If the consensus is that it works then I have no problems. PurpleChez (talk) 14:32, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

@PurpleChez: It isn't violating anything. I suggest opening up a new request for edit in request format. We will be able to determine if your edit should be made. Thanks, AwesomeJedi (talk) 19:55, 11 December 2019 (UTC) @PurpleChez: Adding to my last comment, I highly suggest you open up a request as I agree with you. However, it doesn't violate the rules. If you can suggest an edit it can be considered, make sure to use Citations and in-line citations. AwesomeJedi (talk) 20:01, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments!PurpleChez (talk) 16:12, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

yo, wtf

In the section death; all the sources that are cited attribute only one side—law enforcement. Keep the links, but should that be written about as is on the page? Idk, lmk your thoughts cause some of you get very territorial when it comes to this shi. Ketlag (talk) 02:00, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Hey @Ketlag:, it seems that you think that POV is being violated in Section Life and Death. I don't see how this was violating that, and it did mention what his Management Team had to say about it. If you are confused why it didn't mention Juice Wrld, or Jarad Anthony Higgins POV. I hate to say it but it was impossible for him to have one as he died and never contested. Please comment if you have questions of what I mentioned, AwesomeJedi (talk) 04:07, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Can someone please fix under personal life where it says Jarad began dating Ally in early 2019. They began dating around october 2018 as evidenced by her instagram along with other interviews. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo79BthFg_F/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eharela31 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Apart from the word WRLD in the caption for that photo, how is that a source? In general, if something isn't reported by published sources, it's not of encyclopedic interest and then the article shouldn't mention how long they were together Unknown Temptation (talk) 18:10, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

If the length of their relationship is not of encyclopedic interest, why did the article at the time of Eharela31's comment mention that they had begun dating in early 2019? Is there a way to quantify inferred meaning from the caption in the Instagram post? Currently the article references one of Lotti's 2019 Instagram posts for its updated "November, 2018" claim, though this post also does not explicitly state whether or not they were in a relationship at the time. Something as subjective as whether or not one or both of the Instagram posts of interest imply convincingly that the two were "dating" (current wording of the article) instead of something more casual is open to interpretation by any editor who comes by. What is needed is a source which definitively states that they were dating at some time: as an example, along the lines of "...while published sources report their relationship beginning in early 2019, they may have begun dating as early as October 2018, evidenced by several of Lotti's posts...". I doubt anyone wants an RFC on what can and can't be inferred from Instagram posts (if that hasn't been covered in the style guide already...) Matt.syl (talk) 01:24, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

The Kid Laroi

@C.Fred: for what it's worth, Juice and Laroi have at least two collaborations together - "Go" is one of them, "Hate the Other Side" is another one.

I have heard from different people different things about it, but what I've mostly heard was that WP:OVERLINK did not apply to ref formatting. If you insist, I will comply for whatever will get this passed, but I'd rather have them all linked (which I bet they're not anyway at the moment). dannymusiceditor ^oops 22:23, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

DannyMusicEditor, its been way over seven days and you haven't done any edits to the article. I will give you another 2 days to do address my issues. If you don't, I'm afraid I'm going to have to fail the review. The Ultimate Boss (talk) 22:50, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

The Ultimate Boss, I asked you a question above that you seem to have ignored. I even left you a message on your talk page about it. I suppose I should have been more clear in that I was questioning if that was really necessary instead of making note of it. Once I get the answer to that, I will know how to approach finishing the article. dannymusiceditor ^oops 00:34, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Apologies for butting in here, but there is no policy/guideline against linking every time in the references, in fact many GAs/FAs/FLs etc. do. The important part is consistency, a) link every time b) link none c) link the first time for each. I glanced at the other comments from the reviewer and they all look like well-founded and sensible comments. Aza24 (talk) 03:02, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for this insight, Aza24, I thought but wasn't sure this was the case. I'd prefer to get them all linked up so nobody has to go looking for the link on the publisher. I agree that all the other concerns brought forward by the reviewer are reasonable and will fix those accordingly in the morning. dannymusiceditor ^oops 03:46, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

I really do love Juice Wrld, and am really sad he died at only 21 years old and a day after my birthday, but I am back in school full time now and don't have time to continue the review. I ask that another nominator takes over for me. The Ultimate Boss (talk) 06:10, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

TL;DR: Original reviewer can no longer continue the review. Although I have not followed through on their comments yet, I have received feedback on my questions that can now allow me to finish it. Another reviewer to supervise this nomination would be appreciated. dannymusiceditor ^oops 06:19, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi @DannyMusicEditor:, I'll take this over. It looks like the refs have improved but I think all the comments above are sound. I don't understand what your reply about overlinking was? I'll add some comments about prose, but it's a well-written article. Kingsif (talk) 17:39, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

• Given the formatting of the other sites, I'll assume the two duplicates in the copyvio check stole from Wikipedia, not the other way around. Kingsif (talk) 19:45, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

@Kingsif: The original reviewer is particularly anal about linking in reference formatting as well as which parameters to use for what information, when it makes little or no visual difference. Personally I think it is practical to link a publication in a reference every time, especially when it is used many times from different journal articles, so a reader doesn't have to search for the one reference that does link it - this would be what the original review was aiming to do. It is both consistent and convenient. Thus I do not wish to do this unless you absolutely insist, but I think most would not require this. As for the others, I don't see where said changes are necessary per the GA criteria, or the layout guidelines linked. Your suggestions below I shall take a look at and complete, I'll let you know if I have further response or questions. dannymusiceditor ^oops 03:50, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

I also dispute whether MOS:QWQ is valid on source titles. It doesn't say anything about it in the page. I thought reference titles were to be taken verbatim. dannymusiceditor ^oops 03:57, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

@DannyMusicEditor: there's nothing in the GA about wikilinking e.g. journals in refs, and different views on ref formatting (i.e. no true standard). I am indifferent on what you do here. And if QWQ doesn't mention something, I won't hold you to it. Kingsif (talk) 13:05, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

Kingsif, I must regretfully inform you that I would like you to fail this for now. I have gotten very busy, and do not see a light at the end of the tunnel of when I will be available to work on this again. I thank you for your comments, but it's just not fair for me to have you keep it open this long. dannymusiceditor ^oops 05:21, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

@DannyMusicEditor: Ok then, feel free to ping me when you next nominate it. Hopefully you'll have been able to spend time really working on it :) Kingsif (talk) 12:24, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

• his father left, leaving his mother to raise him as a single mother along with one older brother - needs an edit for clarity. Is it his mother's older brother, his older brother? Is the brother being raised by the mother or helping raise Juice? The phrasing makes all these dubious, even though I assume it's Juice's older brother and the mother raised both of them alone.
• He was allowed to listen to rock and pop music, however, and he found this on video games - was he allowed to listen to those genres or did he find them in video games? Some combination of both? Also, since there's multiple genres, "this" should be "these".
• The wikilink for "lean" should be Lean (drug) rather than purple drank (the latter is a redirect). I am also surprised that article tells you how to make it.
• Is there anything to add about how his mother inspired him to play piano? Did she play it or did she encourage him?
• He signed subsequently with → "subsequently signed with"
• Many hip-hop blogs such as Lyrical Lemonade featured it,[17] - [17] is the only ref, and points to Lyrical Lemonade. "Many hip-hop blogs" is completely unsourced and should be removed. There's no indication of scope. Even 'primary sources', a selection of other blogs as refs, would be okay.
• receiving a Best New Music designation - do you mean "award"?
• Higgins' debut full-length Goodbye & Good Riddance, → Higgins' debut full-length album, Goodbye & Good Riddance,
• XXXTentacion was shot and killed during a robbery attempt a day earlier - this should have the date and then say it was the day before the album was released. The last time frame referenced is Peep's 2017 death, not the album release, and it makes it sound like X died the day before Peep.
• The song "Legends" from the EP debuted at number 65. needs a ref
• It debuted at number 68 and peaked 67 next week on the Billboard Hot 100 → "It debuted at number 68 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked in its second week on the chart, at 67"
• The following day, - when time references are unclear (in the prior two sentences we've had single release, chart position, second week chart position. To which date is this phrase referring!) just give the date. Just give the date.
• released the official version of "Motions" on SoundCloud on July 25.[30] On July 20, 2018, Higgins announced his first tour - but when you have ended a sentence on a date, you can refer to it at the start of the next. Here, it would flow better to say "Five days earlier, Higgins had announced..."
• The paragraph beginning In December 2018, Ski Mask the Slump God confirmed... reads more like a list than prose, could the sentences be varied a bit?
• Why is information about his death duplicated in the career section? In an unreferenced paragraph, this should just be removed.
• Regarding the associated acts param in the infobox, this should only include artists with which he had at least 2 significant collaborations. Some of those included qualify, others don't.
• Maybe make the Posthumous releases header say "2020–present: Posthumous releases" to match the other career sections?
• First two posthumous releases paragraphs can be combined to one. Both short and about the same period. The lengthy quote block is unnecessary and should be removed
• This section also feels very list-y, and needs some update clean-up, e.g. On April 23, Higgins' estate announced on his Instagram account that his first posthumous single, "Righteous", would be released later that night.[62] Released at midnight on April 24, an accompanying music video with footage of Higgins was uploaded to his YouTube channel. - we don't need to know about the announcement once the single has been released unless there's something inherently notable about the announcement itself. (E.g., on an actor bio we don't say it was announced they would be in X film, and then when X film was released. We just say when it was released and that they were in it.)
• Higgins' estate publicly announced the title of the late rapper's first posthumous album had been changed to Legends Never Die on July 6. - press release-y. Just say that the album's title was changed. It would also read a lot better if this paragraph was reordered. Put the album release first, then mention the prior title change.
• On the same day, Higgins' estate also released "Life's a Mess" featuring Halsey[68] and "Come & Go" a few days later on July 9 featuring Marshmello. - this sentence is ungrammatical. "a few days later" is not "on the same day". It would be easier to say between the album announcement and its release, two single collaborations were released.
• "Life's a Mess" notably jumped from number 74 to number nine that week - since the source is just the Billboard chart, "notably" doesn't belong here
• Split the information that's not about the album from that paragraph (everything from On October 23,)
• In 2021, Higgins' final music video was released by Cole Bennett. The song, "Bad Boy", featured Young Thug and debuted at number 22 on the Hot 100. - needs a ref
• Quite a few duplicate wikilinks to remove
• Higgins was among the ranks of openly vulnerable artists born from the emo rap scene inspired by West's influential fourth album, 808s & Heartbreak (2008).[87] Billboard writer Michael Saponara claimed, "If West and his sparse 808s were a tree, it would have grown another branch with the blossoming art displayed by fellow Chicago native Juice WRLD in 2018." - this is a solid quotation, but it doesn't really say more than the previous sentence: that 808s influenced Juice. Perhaps a reframing: put the quotation first, then the other sentence, to say 808s influence Juice and then that he wasn't the only one?
• "I was singing 'Street Lights'... - "Street Lights" should be in double marks, even inside a quotation
  • Is it possible to reduce this quotation? Wikipedia is not censored, but there isn't a need to have "nigga" present. Also bracket "Kanye" → [West] for style
• His other influences included: Wu-Tang Clan... - don't need the colon
• With a penchant for short, hook-heavy songs, Higgins seemed a leading figure for the current era of hip-hop. In 2018, the streaming platform Spotify named "emo rap" its fastest growing genre. Higgins achieved arguably the most mainstream success of any artist in the sub-genre. This was boosted by his collaboration with Panic! At the Disco frontman Brendon Urie. - some bold claims in here, so please attribute to Complex and/or the author of the article (Rindner), preferably quoting
• Higgins himself considered the emo label to be both negative and positive. He felt that music sometimes has to be a bit dark to reflect his belief that the world is not really a light or a happy place - can you connect these sentences for flow?
• ditto for When he did write a song, it usually began with hearing a beat and instantaneously conceiving an idea.[101] Higgins sometimes found himself alone with an idea for a song and afraid that he would be unable to remember it hours later after arriving at the studio
• Higgins saw the value in his position as one of very few contemporary SoundCloud artists who could compose soul-bearing ballads and odes but remain comfortable freestyle rapping over classic hip hop beats. - again, please attribute to Complex/Rindner. Same goes for the next sentence, which ideally should be rephrased, and probably for everything lifted from the Complex coverage
  • Why are there so many inline refs to this article when sentences without quotations follow each other?
• I'm not sure how the first paragraph in the lyrical themes subsection relates to his lyrical themes, it's more about his artistry and song conception
• Apply what I said about the Complex coverage to the Hypebeast/Maduakolam article. I also think it would be good for Though not entirely groundbreaking, his musical approach provided a sense of familiarity that heartbroken adolescents of the current generation could gravitate towards to be rewritten to be clearer and less flowery
• It doesn't need to reintroduce his mother in the personal life section when the early life section already did and discussed her.
• Law enforcement officials later revealed they found three handguns and 70 lb (32 kg) of marijuana on the aircraft is this - certainly the guns part - relevant?
• I'd combine the last three death section paragraphs into one and reorder a little: seizure, hospital, medical examiner, funeral and attendees
• The pilot contacted authorities when he saw people carrying guns on the plane that he had not been made aware of - can be removed, it's just restating information from above and unnecessary in the context anyway.
• Harry Dean, 27, of Chicago and Christopher Long, 36, of California were both arrested on gun charges, released immediately thereafter and given a court date for early the following year. - irrelevant to Juice. If there were a separate article about his death, then the plane search details would have a place, but not on Juice's bio.
• The rapper had been under suspicion by the Federal authorities as a month earlier an incident occurred before he departed for Australia which prompted a search of his plane.[118] Badazz gave an interview threatening violence upon the pilot, before later in the interview calming down and reflecting on the dangers of young artists suddenly being overwhelmed with money. - the prose here needs significantly improving. Restructuring the sentences and appropriate punctuation are my suggestions (I don't want to just tell you what to write)
• Need prose improvements for the next paragraph (beginning Rapper Ski Mask the Slump God, his close friend...), too
• Introducing his mother again?
• Way too long a quotation from his mother. Cut it down or summarize, as the prose had started
• 21st birthday → twenty-first
• Since the concert tours aren't in a table, there's no need to have notes in small text
• Not enough awards to separate by organization, just put them all in one table
• Media:
  • change the image in 2018–2019 section to upright to meet the size formatting MOS.
  • there is no specific discussion in the article of either of the song clips used, so I see no valid fair use rationale for either. I also don't think that this bio would really qualify for two; he had a short career with no significant change in style

Documentary

I heard next year (2022) a documentary by the name of THEWORLDOFJUICE Derpmaster2474eatMYshortz (talk) 00:40, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

Someone should definitely add something in the article about the documentary. The 40 second interlude on Legends Never Die was taken from the trailer of the documentary. Someone on Juice's team revealed this in an interview. This means that they had already made a trailer for the documentary. Some rumours are that it may be released on his birthday this year (2021) Anzio Langeveldt (talk) 10:28, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Reaction

I am outraged to see Wikipedia being used to try to pin blame On this man's death on anybody but this man. It doesn't matter how many sources say Boosie Badazz blames the pilot for Higgins's death. Higgins was responsible for his own death. He stupidly ate drugs to keep from getting caught with them on an airplane with a group of people carrying illegal guns and 70 lb of pot. Doesn't matter how many sources verify Boosie Badazz saying what he said. He is a discredited Source himself. He's a criminal. Where she at this article actually publishes the fact but he threatened the pilot. It's totally irrelevant to say he calm down later. Wikipedia simply can't be the source of a threat on the life of another human being. Even though Mention of such a threat. It's not the pilot that broke the law, it was Higgins. Leaving that comment on Wikipedia is an indirect threat to the pilot of an airplane from a convicted Criminal, tried for one murder suspected in five others into a world of killers gangsters criminals and thugs. Boosie Badazz is not a credible source not even really a notable figure and his opinions should get no Credence here. It's the opinion of a criminal trying to shift the blame away from another Criminal. The pilot was not responsible for his death he was. I'll come back tomorrow and make severe deletions to this page unless someone can justify Falls within the bounds of what's permissible on Wikipedia. There are also other things in that section that lack relevance to The Heading. I am prepared to argue this to administrators. Jackhammer111 (talk) 23:53, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

I see your point, Jackhammer, but the coverage of Boosie's comments were covered and reported in a major publication. Since this is the case, I can't personally justify removing reliable coverage of the material. If you can draw connections to one of Wikipedia's own policies which would argue against keeping the material you're referring to, I'd be happy to hear it. dannymusiceditor ^oops 21:15, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Jackhammer111, you suggest that the article states that the pilot was responsible for Mr. Higgins passing, but that is not actually the case. Mr. Hatch's assertion that the pilot was responsible is presented as such, a single notable person's opinion, and purposefully listed in the subsection fittingly entitled, "Reaction," not "Cause of death." The purpose of the subsection is to list some notable reactions to the event, not to establish the cause of death. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 22:42, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi, @CreepysWiFi:. His mother is mentioned, although not by name, in the early life section. She is also mentioned by name in both the personal life section and the section that cover’s Higgin’s death. The section covering his death also details what she has done after his passing, such as establishing the Live Free 999 Fund and advocating for making increased support available for those struggling with addiction and mental health.
