Juice Wrld's Parents Speaks Out on Rapper's Death and Addiction

People are still mourning the death of Juice Wrld. He suffered a seizure on Sunday after arriving in Chicago's airport. At one point it wasn't known the cause until later when it was revealed he popped several pills before the plane landed when he found out he would be searched by the feds. It was not new to people that the rapper had a drug addiction, as he sang about it. One rapper, Joyner Lucas said he was mad that people glorified the idea of this pill-popping culture, while sending his condolences. But now Juice's family is speaking out in hopes his addiction will help others. According to TMZ, his mom said, "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." She even admitted Juice battled with drug dependency but she says he wasn't rapping about drugs to promote it, but to help others who may have felt alone in their fight. Drug addiction is real, but you have to fight it.
