He also added his own flourishes to hammer home thePartytheme.
Most of all, I miss his fun-loving and giving personality.
I miss him so much.
A$AP NAST
I never saw that shit before, so thats always memorable.
That shit make me want to throw up.
Bibby:Yeah, if you listen to it hes snoring in the beginning.
You could hear him say, Play it one more time.
A lot of his music be kind of sad.
This one feels more upward, like a celebration.
But its a little mix of everything, though.
Its just not fully.
I would find my favorite leaked ones and my favorite unleaked ones.
Then [Id be] linking with different producers, seeing if they have stuff thats not heard.
Its just been really tricky.
How complicated is your relationship with his fans?
I like that theyre excited about him and that they want to hear about the leaks.
Its crazy to see that five years later, they still love him this much.
But I dont know.
I want to like the fans and confirm everything is done proper.
I already didnt care what people think that much, but now Im on a different level.
So theyll be in your DMs like, Yo, drop the album or else?
What would they be saying?Jideonwo:All kind of shit you could think of.
I hope somebody comes and shoots you in your face.
I cant wait to see you.
This going to be your last day breathing.
I hope somebody hangs you.
I think my number has probably been leaked at least five different, six different times.
They posted my Social Security numbers, phone numbers, and addresses.
People be sending pizzas to my house.
Somebody just sent a pizza to the warehouse on Friday.
Just all types of craziness, man.
Its like, Damn, bro.
But to the fans, its deeper than the music.
A fans a kid.
Hes like 16 or 17.
And hes like, Put out every song Juice WRLD made.
Every song to be released.
you gotta drop a song every day.
And you gotta make all the clouds form in the sky to spell Juice WRLD.
Michael Jackson needs to come back and be on the first record.
Thats how they think, right?
They dont think about processes or any business things going on.
They dont care about any of that.
Theres a lot of individualism going on in the situation where fans dont really care about the bigger picture.
Thats the key in of things that say online.
So yeah, Drop the music or else is a light day for Juice fans sometimes.
And I have to find more songs.
I know if I just give them an album full of leaks, then theyll go crazy.
If not, theyre going to leak more music.
So its like you got to.
And I was like, What?
Youve talked about the leaking.
But then [she was like], Juice saved my life.
I was going to kill myself.
And then somebody said something to me, Drop the fucking music.
That shit was just crazy.
Yeah, that one was crazy.
How did yall feel when you saw what Bronny said about Juice Wrld?
So I figured that he was, but it was really good.
And thats what I mean by legacy.
I saw Eminem is going to be on the project.
Also, making an animation and things like that.
So thats why we felt like it was important for the last album that Murakami did the cover.
She really liked that one.
I saw her mention in a livestream this summer that she wanted to maybe have it on her project.
I said, That aint true.
Its just, I dont know.
I dont want to disrespect bro.
I feel like sometimes he does stuff that doesnt make any sense.
He didnt clear it.
So its the other way around.
Can you tell me more about the Fortnite concert?Fortnite has been doing these concerts for what?
The last three years.
Theyve done Travis, theyve done Eminem, theyve done Marshmello.
Around 400 million people around the world will tune in to watch this concert.
And also we are going to show it at the Juice WRLD Day.
I just think its a great opportunity.
Weve already seen success just by announcing the concerts coming.
Were almost at 30 percent lift in the catalog on various songs.
So weve [experienced a] 30-something percent increase.
That plus internal calls.
We enlisted a few different people to help build out.
It was very tedious.
From Bibby to Dave and then the legal processes and just also keeping something so big under wraps.
Or whatever, people almost treat it like its Drake or Kendrick Lamar, to be honest.
Juice has the most songs in history, with at least 100 million streams.
And he has one of the highest stream rates of any artist thats ever been released, right?
I think every Juice song averages 100 million streams.
So I think people take it very seriously in that manner.
We can say, Heres a song.
But as far as his verse on somebody elses new song, I think thats impossible.
But you will hear his other songs that are not released currently.
Some of them might come out in the future but its going to be scarce.
Bibby:My favorite word is No.
Peter, youve said the next chapter is to make Juice WRLD immortal.
How do you plan to go about doing that?Jideonwo:I think by doing immortal shit.
You got to do things that are groundbreaking and very global.
From museums to movies to art installations to.
Thats how you make his name immortal.
Just really doing a lot of cool, tasteful things that push the needle.
I dont think youre going to stop hearing about Juice WRLD from now until forever, to be honest.
Its not about the money at this point.
Everything got to mean something.
What is the world missing without him here physically?Bibby:I miss him a lot.
Just pulling up on him, hearing his corny jokes or his laugh.
To me, that was the nicest person that I ever met in my whole life.
I never saw him say no.
I seen him do 20 songs with every artist, from the smallest artists in the world to …
I just seen him do too much selfless stuff.
I never met nobody like that.
I remember when he was here, people like Cordae and other rappers used to freestyle.
They used to take a stab at do what Juice did.
And I think now, since hes been gone, they have no reason to.
Because its like, yeah, they can still do it, but whos the competition?
Who are they going after?
You know what Im saying?
Who are they trying to impress?
We need to make hip-hop fun again.
And also, I think emotional music has kind of lost its touch.
Were now in the age of … Im speaking for rap.
And I dont think its because people shifted or humans became different.
