During the service, his siblings and grandmother gave eulogies honoring his memory. People in attendance included his friends, record executives from Interscope and other rappers. 

In a statement, Juice Wrld’s mother told TMZ she hopes her son’s death can serve as a lesson to those who “struggle with addiction.” Moreover, she thanks all the people who’ve expressed love and support for their family during this difficult time.

And Nicki Minajeven revealed that she’s looking at life a bit differently now after losing her former tour opener. During her acceptance speech at the Billboard Women in Music Awards, the rapper said, “I want to tell everyone that ‘drugs isn’t the problem’ isn’t the way we fix our problem. So, it’s so important that we don’t pass judgment, so that people don’t feel ashamed to speak up and ask for help. It’s so important that we talk about mental health. It is. Because people are dying because they don’t want to express how miserable they are and how much they’re suffering, so they’d rather medicate themselves. So, I just came here tonight to ask people to be a little bit more forgiving and understanding. Especially with entertainers. We can’t have a bad day.”

Our thoughts go out to Juice Wrld’s family during this difficult time.
