His Juice Wrld stage name was said to have been inspired by the 1992 film, Juice, starring Tupac Shakur.

The rapper turned 21 only last week. On December 3 he tweeted his girlfriend Ally Lotti to say: 'It’s us forever bb girl.' He had earlier said he had had 'one of the best birthdays ever.'

Following the news of his death fellow rapper Killy tweeted Sunday morning: 'Rest In Peace Juice Wrld.'

In October of this year rock band Yellowcard announced they were suing Juice WRLD for $15 million for copyright infringement.

They claimed he copied melodic elements of their 2006 song Holly Wood Died for his breakthrough 2018 single Lucid Dreams.

Lucid Dreams is actually structured prominently around a sample of Sting's 1993 song Shape Of My Heart.
