J.I.D
Chicago-area hip-hop musician Juice WRLD delivers introspective lyrics atop melodic production, echoing Travis Scott and Post Malone. Born Jarad Higgins in 1998, the Calumet Park artist grew up playing piano drums and guitar, turning to rap freestyling in high school. Influeced by rock music and Chicago drill from Lil Durk and Cheif Keef, Higgins began recording as juice TheKidd, a moniker derived from his haircut, which resembled 2pacs in the film juice. Goodbye and good riddance his debut album with hit songs like Lucid dreams and All girls the same are the reason he rose to fame so quickly and people cant wait to see whats next.
