Fans claim that Juice WRLD predicted his own death with eerie lyrics
The lyrics were written in tribute to other rappers who died young.
by Sarah MaglioccoThe death of 21-year old rapper Juice WRLD was reported yesterday.
The star reportedly passed away in Chicago following a seizure in the state’s airport.
However, fans are now in a frenzy as they theorize that the rapper, real name Jarad Anthony Higgins, predicted his own death.
The artist is said to predicted his own death in a track from his 2018 EP Too Soon…
In the song Legends, he raps that he “ain’t making it past 21.”
“What’s the 27 Club? / We ain’t making it past 21”, he raps. “They tell me I’m-a be a legend / I don’t want that title now / ‘Cause all the legends seem to die out / What the f*** is this about?” he raps.
The “27 Club” is a name for the phenomenon of a number of high profile musicians passing away when they reach the age of 27.
The song Legends was written as a tribute to the late rapper XXXTentacion, who died in 2018 aged 20.
The EP Too Soon… was a two-track tribute to XXXTenacion and fellow rapper Lil Peep, who died in 2017 aged 21.
Before his passing, the rapper also tweeted:
“This life is yours do what tf you want do great things and change the world don’t let no one tell you SHIT…”
“You’ll be bigger than ‘juice wrld’ will ever be, and he’s going down as a legend – Jarad”
The tweet has reinforced the theory in the minds of many fans.
