Interesting lyrics, good beats, lame flow even tho it was intentional, weird voice fluctuations and sounds like any other underground Hip-hop from the 90's. Not a legend bro but defiantly not forgettable.
@@kaos-brawlstars918 Technically speaking every voice is unique as well as nothing in the universe being 100% identical to anything, that doesn't make something legendary or GOAT. Just my humble opinion. And I'm not even saying I don't like his music.
Really wish most of juices catalog was released he really has some crazy stuff in the vault. Like so versatile and his abilities to make songs was actually insane. The way some of the biggest artist speak about him really makes it seem like he has some crazy skills that no generic rapper has.
thank you bro, fr if you listen to just the stuff that was released you not gonna see all the great songs he never released, that stayed only on soundcloud. Of all the dead artists I think he is a legend because even now about 4 years after he died and I find new songs like every week, in my opinion he worked his heart out and truthfully was one of the greats. Michael Jackson lit though too 😁
@@bolt1303people don’t realize his label wouldn’t let him release any of the hype music he was recording. bro has some insane unreleased songs such as thrills, 911 and horrible
just like biggie smalls once said, "you're nobody till somebody kills you". its a perfect summary of what happens when you die. when you're alive nobody talks about you but when you're gone everyone all of a sudden misses you
Eazy E was a true legend. Really took the rap game off with N.W.A and Boyz-N-The-Hood is still an absolute banger to this day, along with a lot of N.W.A song. RIP to all these legends
There’s a few ppl that are legends to me and that’s Kurt Cobain. He and his band nirvana has helped me get through some stuff in life. Ik he died years before i was born but it makes me rlly rlly sad that he died. It can make me cry a lot sometimes may Kurt Cobain rest in peace 🙏🏾
Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain were legends in their whole league. Especially Layne with no disrespect towards Kurt, because nobody has and will be ABLE to top Layne’s vocal signature
There’s definitely a line between “legend” and “an artist with great potential”. I love Pop Smoke, like, way too much, but he only had 2 albums released while he was actually alive, the 2 posthumous albums are great too ngl. I wouldn’t say he’s a legend, but he had insane potential. Still one of my favorite rappers of all time
yeah it almost makes it more sad, like... juice wrld is my favorite rapper but he made an insane amount of music and i'm satisfied with his stuff, but i love pop smoke and it hurts to see he has such a small amount of songs out, he just didn't record as much as juice and was newer in the game. 🙏
idk bout you but he could be considered a legend here in ny solely for what he did for the city. He really made this sht global and mfs will never forget that
@@moneymakinmitch8130 you right that’s true. Being a legend isn’t based on how much you did but rather the effect of what you did. I honestly really hope we get someone else like him in the future
I didn’t really listen to his music before he died because I wasn’t that in tune with NY drill even though being from there myself I started listening to him maybe a year or almost a year after he died because at that time I started listening to ny drill and I became a fan of his shit and till this day the shit saddens me that he’s gone and I might like his shit too much aswell because I be in the middle of listening to his music and I sit there like damn he really gone we not getting no more new music type shit 😂
I do feel like he can be considered a legend because he put NY drill on the map people were doing their thing before him of course but his friends and even his enemies were able to get put on by him he’s one of maybe two rappers I felt truly saddened by their death and the other would be nick blixky what really hit me was right after he announced his album was finna be released he got killed so he wouldn’t even know how well it would’ve done and nothing would be filmed for it
I love Amy Winehouse. There's just no other artist that comes close to her music especially her iconic voice. I wonder what more she could bring with her talent if she was still alive. RIP
Prince (1958-2016) was the first artist whose death hit me hard. I was born in 2004, long after the peak of his career, but I knew we lost a legend. That entire Purple Rain album was fucking phenomenal. When I first heard the guitar solo/outro from "Let's Go Crazy", I got so many chills I almost cried. It's that beautiful. And his performance at Super Bowl XLI in 2007 was better than the game itself, even as a Peyton Manning fan. "Purple Rain" during that halftime show genuinely made me shed a tear, because not only is this rendition a solid 10/10, I believe the hand of God was on him as there was a rainstorm in Miami that night, and the rain even glowed purple with his stage.
I have to say you can feel the emotion in a lot of his songs, for me, the last segment of Bohemian Rhapsody hit me hard and I'm actually not that sure why. Maybe it's because a lot of the things I think or worry about really dont matter. So I guess its because nothing that I'm worrying about really matters after all.
Jimi Hendrix was probably the greatest rock guitarist of all time, I'm not a fanatic about his music, but his influence over the rock genre as a whole is greater than other any musician I know of. He's a legend in my eyes.
@@monkehman979 Those two are probably far more influential than Hendrix, not to discredit him in any way. EVH is probably the greatest player to live, his timing was impeccable. Alexi Laiho and Synester Gates are two very underrated guitar players that are arguably more technically proficient than Hendrix
I feel like a lot of what makes an artist a legend isn’t just what they did music wise but as a person as well. Like Muhammad Ali and Tupac. They did so much outside of boxing/music for their community. And that’s why they’re legends
But still if you're actually really good in your field, you can still be considered a legend or a GOAT (although this term is actually more subjective than the former). Much like Mike Tyson or Pop Smoke. It's fine to consider Mike Tyson a legend or a GOAT, because really before his downfall with Don King and Cus' death, he was the hardest puncher. Pretty sure by a landslide, of course I acknowledge he definitely had some hard fights like Holyfield, Smith and Lennox Lewis. I don't remember or know what Pop Smoke did outside of his music. Only footage I've seem of him was in his music videos, a podcast with a lady and him walking, thats it. But by many, he's still considered a legend. Of course, not as much as Tupac or other great artists from 90s-2000s like 50cent, Nas, etc. So my conclusion is, don't call someone a GOAT if they're music isn't all that. You can call them a legend though, for their influential range, their creativity, etc. or other factors which would mostly be outside of the music scene. But what do I know? I'm just a guy who likes lobsters.
Tupac was a wannabe gangbanger. Started hanging with suge who also wasn’t a member and started talking bout he MOB. Tried banging on a real crip and go knocced
@@CN86443 tbh you're right. I didn't even know him before he died, heard some of his music but didn't know him. I'm talking bullshit fr edit: like another guy said, he's an artist with great potential but not a legend. I stand corrected, i guess I ignored that he gained fame after he died. I was too swayed by the fact that he made good music and I was biased.
Peter Steele was a absolute Legend in the metal Gothidelic community he passed away in 2010 from heart issues. He had the most amazing bass singing I have heard. He has imspired me to sing, play, and write music like he did.
Elliott Smith hands down is my favorite artist ever. Got music for when I am down or happy. Even his earlier stuff with heatmiser is amazing imo. I wish he was still here making stuff he was so talented. His guitar playing technique is so subtle, but interesting. The odd chords he would just play casually where you have to stretch your hand to timbuktu. When he would just manage to make a chord from a completely different key just fit flawlessly into his sound. The different genres from noise rock in later songs such as coast to coast to the more simple folk stuff in songs like whatever (folk song in c) proved how versatile he was. Plus the punk stuff with Heatmiser.
@@bandonkadonk sure, but keep in mind every other artist he quoted was in the rap game, i wasn't expecting anyone outside this genre, even so judging by the thumbnail.
Didn’t expect David Bowie to be in this video. He truly was a great artist and I remember listening to his songs with my mom when I was 10. Good memories
When Mac Miller died, I had never heard anything by him before, and my college roommate said “Let’s have a Mac Tribute Concert” so we just listened to a bunch of Mac Miller for the day and I was hooked instantly. Man is my favorite artist of all time now and it hurts so much that I can never see this man perform live or hear anything legit new from him. RIP MAC 💜
@rD mooD2 full heartedly agree, macs evolution as an artist showed so much fucking potential. Tragic that we didn’t get to see more projects, especially since the release of circles, which is one of the best albums for me personally, which showed a lot of musical talent
Im in the same boat with MF DOOM. Someone I was talking to introduced me to his music 6 months after his death and now im sad that I can never go see him live
The term “legend” has definitely been thrown around a lot to the point where the meaning isn’t as impactful but I think something that’s really important to consider is the impact the artist made. You don’t need to like someone’s like peep’s music but the impact he made was undeniable. Peep, X, Juice, Uzi, etc. basically formed the new gen. In fact Juice WRLD even admitted that peep was one of his biggest inspirations.
@@hernandez4856 Not really, the video was more formulated around personal opinions, which is fine, but it’s also important to look at things objectively and the impact they had on the industry.
All the people you mentioned only inspired very similar artists in recent years. It's not like they had this massive widespread global influence even outside of their subgenre. And I'm not saying they weren't good, or they weren't influential. Just seems like people constantly overstate their impact on music
To me a legendary artist is someone who came into the game and not only made their own lane but also changed the way future artists approach the craft. Legendary artists have a way of being authentically themselves to the point of being highly influential while also fitting in with what is hot atm. These people make waves that change currents
I relate a bit cus before hearing of his passing, I had no idea what a Pop Smoke was, but then when I heard of the news I gave it a shot to see like "oh well let's see what type of music this guy made" and I immediately fell in love with his heavy drill tracks and some of his melodic one.
I think the title of “Legend” should be reserved to those who left a mark in their respective genre, and the mark in turn influence multiple new artist. People who pass away recently are just too new and we don’t know of the aftermath of their death for a while.
I agree that "legend" should be used only for people who leave mark, but I also think that although he wasn't around long, Juice definitely still made that mark.
so MJ, X, n 2Pac should be high up? Cuz 2Pac influenced a lot of ppl in the 90's and early 00's. X influenced a lot of teens now in the 10's and Mj influenced ppl ever since he came ou.
What I wish is that more people could listen to more juice wrlds music. Everyone knows all his songs that blew up that sound like middle school heartbreak music, but beneath the surface he’s actually an amazing rapper.
I’ve never related to a video more, you literally took the words out of my mouth like literally. Its mind boggling how you also don’t fw lil peeps music but still respect his death, just like me, especially being that falling down is the only song with lil peep I can tolerate🤣🤣
Anyone who disagrees is too young to know the impact MJ had made for black artists and music. And they obviously don't know how famous this man was and still is.
I consider Nujabes a legend. His music was so damn relaxing & showed me a new side of hip-hop I never knew existed. He died in a car accident twelve years ago, but his music still goes hard. Luckily, all the rappers he collabed with are alive, I think, & I've heard some good tracks from them.
Hell yeah, I was looking for a comment about him I only recently got into him, think his stuff is amazing. His music is about the only kind of hip hop or rap I genuinely like a lot So sad he left
@Tyler Walker Another artist I like is Raujika. There's barely any info available on him, but his song "Grim" has a very unique beat that I didn't realize was hip-hop at first.
@@DABUNGINATOR what i can say after skimming through a few songs is that Raujika takes a more dirty, gritty path, which case reminds me most of Madlib. However nujabes is quite clean and filtered which is definitely Dilla's magnum opus. I'd go as far as saying Madlib and suba jun is are the only people who are on the level of Dillas.
Mac Miller's music has definitely resonated with me on a pretty deep level. Though not necessarily listening to his music before his passing, so I don't have much of an emotional connection to him as a person, I was able to really connect with how he feels on LPs like Circles and Swimming. I don't know if he's a legend or anything, but he's definitely an artist that has defined a low era in my life.
In all honesty, I wasn't a Mac fan at all until after his untimely death. I heard his early frat boy stuff and thought he was garbage so I never listened to him again. So it came as a shock to me how much the music, especially hip hop, world was mourning him. Then when Circles dropped, I was astounded by how much his sound had evolved. I was in a dark place at the time and this somber album from a rapper I used to think was trash brought me peace and serenity. Then I went backwards on his discography with Swimming, Faces, etc and I'm saddened that I was so quick to write him off as "another frat boy rapper" and now I have Circles on repeat. Even though I only became a fan after his passing, his album run will certify his legend status in the years to come
I prefer him over nas and cole fr imo anybody can make a illmatic and off season nowadays but Mac’s discography from 2012-18 is untouchable and truly one of a kind.. it was a privilege watching him grow from party raps to straight artistry, also swimming is NOT his best project for straight bars and raps WMWTSO,Faces,GOOD AM,his Delusional Thomas mixtape/any SoundCloud only released songs will show you dude could truly spit if he wanted to.. dude has so much it’s insane I have 9 HOURS worth of leaks/SoundCloud songs on my phone He was an amazing producer too check out his collab mixtape with Vince Staples called “Stolen Youth” his producers alias is named “Larry Fisherman”, he had other music personas as well like “Larry Lovestein” for his jazz persona, “Delusional Thomas” is his evil demon slim shady type persona , and “Larry Dollaz” is his trap persona.. Malcolm is a legend as an artist and a human being, y’all just had to be there to truly witness his greatness
@@mrrevan813 daaaaaaaaamn u missed out on the Mac Miller era that’s sad af to hear. Mac has got me thru so many problems. To me he’s a legend. But to other ppl, naw.
I think that an artist's music becomes legendary when it ages well. Everybody including myself would recognize a 2Pac song, I can't say the same for these guys nowadays.
The difference between legends like Tupac and recently dead artists is the fact that Tupac's music had time to age. We still have no clue if these are gonna age well, and I don't really think it's a good metric on making someone legendary. It should honestly be based on the impact their music had on your life, because at the end of the day, it's all opinion 🙏
Yes Biggie, 2Pac Nas and Ice cube are undeniable as they basically built the industry. Not to say others wouldn't have done the same if they hadn't come first but I think to be considered a "legend" you have to change the game in a way that effects the genre for years to come
"I can't say the same for these guys nowadays" yeah cause you haven't given it the fuckin chance, it hasn't aged yet so you don't know if it'll survive. Also recognition doesn't mean it's good, we all know Soulja boys hits and could recognize them but I'd never claim that shits good or that Soulja boy is a legend 😂😂😂😂😂
Elvis, Micheal Jackson, and Freddy Mercury are THE faces of classic rock. Nobody was doing it like they were back then, and even now it’s hard to beat or even match their talent. I never saw people with a more constant track record than them. MJ, Thriller, PYT, Bad, Smooth Criminal, Man in the Mirror, Black or White. NO MISSES Elvis, Wonder of You, All Shook Up, Burning Love, Hound Dog, Jailhouse Rock,Suspicious Minds. NO MISSES Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody, Don’t Stop Me Now, Somebody to Love, Under Pressure, Scandal. NO MISSES
I know this is somewhat off-topic, but the point you make about artists’ deaths at the beginning of the video reminded me of this. I still remember the day Chester Bennington (Linkin Park lead vocalist for those unaware) died by suic*de. It was the first time a celebrity death really hit me. It didn’t feel real at the time. I didn’t even know this guy, yet I was devastated when I heard the news. He was one of the most influential vocalists of the 21st century, not just in heavy metal, but in all of music in general. His band left an impact on culture that few people are able to. I don’t like everything he made, and his death didn’t change that, but now I look back on even the less great stuff more fondly. I’ll never forget the impact his work had on my teen years. Even after nearly 5 years, the world still misses him. Rest In Power.
I cried when David Bowie died, just cuz that dude was such a big name throughout his whole career and his death and final album felt surreal. He put out his last album right before he died which reminded me a lot of J Dilla’s final album and passing. I don’t even care about most celebs/artists but something about a musical legend leaving this world kinda hits hard, especially when it happens to an artist you listen to and appreciate. Edit: Holy shit I didn’t even watch the whole vid when I commented this das crazy that he brought Bowie up
My favorite artist that has passed is for sure MF DOOM. In my opinion, DOOM checks all the boxes when it comes to being a good rapper aside from the fact that he’s an acquired taste. For sure one of my favorite artists ever and I’m glad you think he’s one of the goats too. 🙌
Miki Matsubara is a good artist, though not many people know of her other than her song “Stay With Me”. Her final thoughts on her own career only fill me with sadness because yes she made music but she felt like she wasted her life making it instead of seeking more from it. May she Rest In Peace, and may all these artists Rest In Peace.
Kei was bassist of the band named Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas. He passed away due to heart problem. Yes the new bassist Tetsuya does his job well and all but I just miss him time to time. May he rest in peace.
X is no doubt the biggest legend in todays generation i remember finding him back in 2015 and till this day his music is the only music that can reach me like that in a hype or in a sad way. what he has done was real versatile art of music. and dont even let me start with him as a person. irreplaceable artist for me
to me Chester from Linkin Park was a legend, and his death really broke me as someone who was struggling mentally back then. His songs got through many 00 kids' tough days, may he rest in peace
I got to say I was never really a linkin park fan but I can not lie I was put on music early and would listen as a kid but the lyrics were just so much different.
It feels weird that almost half a decade has passed since Chester Bennington’s passing, whilst I still feel dissatisfied with how the last Linkin Park album was… I hope at least some of the wounds have healed to the rest of the group.
Mike's Post Traumatic made it up for me. The last album was mostly meh at first for me, after his death, yea, reflection and shit, you start to kinda see between the lines. Years after, it goes a little back to that old "meh" feeling. I love chester and LP and all, but the last album, is more of a emotional feeling than rock or something. Mike's PT after the death of chester helped me accept that, the last album of LP really was just kinda meh, and that it isnt all that bad

I'm such a really good singe.r 🥰 ruclips.net/video/Lz5x6vFqFN0/видео.html
personally MF DOOM was the hardest for me to deal with as i really resonated with his music and his mad villian album specifically, truely one of the GOATS undoubtedly
ngl, I like rap music but for me I am very picky about it, I mean I like Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, wu tang clan etc. But the majority of it just sounded like garbage to me. I found out about doom a few months ago AND OH MY GOD ITS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST RAP MUSIC I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE, the absolute BARS in all his songs, his style. AND THOSE AWSOME INSTRUMENTALS, if you put on operation doomsday and rap snitches. I am going to be god dam break dancing to that stuff OH MY GOD ITS SO GOOD. It really sucks even to a newer fan of his like me that he passed, RIP :(
@@jfdgbfjlttkntg i mean theres definite legends like kendrick n easy e but hes a legend to me for very personal reasons, not cuz hes crazy lyrical or sum
I'm a year late, and I never comment on videos, but l love your videos and I'm grateful that you mentioned Bowie, he isn't remembered as much as he should be and was the greatest rockstar of all time in my opinion, so thank you for that degen!
I personally consider juice a legend myself, I was going through a really hard time with my grandma dying and shortly after my parents divorcing when I found him. His music really connected with me on a spiritual level, and even if you didn’t feel the music, you couldn’t ignore the raw talent. Like fr tho… who in the world freestyles for one hour straight? Even though he couldn’t reach his full potential, he’s gotta be up there with the all time greats, because no one in the scene could even touch him at his peak. I’m talking world. Wide. Fame. And he is probably always gonna be one of the most talented artists we’ve ever scene when it really comes down to the skill he had. Just my prospective
Yea but it's tough to call todays lean rappers legends when there's music out there basically a million times better than it. In every possible aspect xD. I myself listen to todays rap and hiphop everyday, but i feel like they can't compare in any way to singers and rappers from the 20th century and early 2000's.
I'd definitely consider Juice a legend, He has a solid discography, even WOD and then there's his unreleased music, it jus really shows how talented and versatile he really was. I remember when I first heard him, there was jus something bout him that jus stuck, something bout him jus made him standout from the rest. Imo his prolly the most talented artist to have ever do it, in terms of technical ability, wouldve loved him and Kanye work together or Ye executive producer a couple of his albums to really help him reach his extremely high potential
I think Ariel Camacho, Vicente Fernandez, Joan Sebastian, Juan Gabriel, Valentin Elizalde and Chalino Sanchez are true legends in the Mexican music industry
Tons of people have given David Bowie credit, because he is a legend of music. Please do a search of his name, or look at his list of accomplishments, they speak for themselves.
Freddie Mercury, Michael Jackson, and Prince… those guys were true legends. And for all you metalheads out there, even though he wasn’t with us very long, the legendary bassist Cliff Burton. RIP.
@@gorexio764 Cliff's bass technique on strumming was crazy af I don't care about bass but the dude was unique to me little did I know Motorhead singer kinda plays the same
Avicii is one of the biggest EDM artist ever and his death really affected me so much up to this day. Another one is SOPHIE, a real visionary, rest in peace queen.
@@hachikodog858 nahh im just now hearing about this too. Didnt know he died mannnn. Alot of people dont watch the news and if social media doesnt BLOW IT UP and post it everwhere, its definitely possible for it to go under the radar
@@oceanman6973 tchaikovsly hardly revolutionized anything, beethoven bach and hadyn would probably be the best three to pick in terms of impact. If you were to pick someone similar to tchaikovsky and around his time period, rachmaninoff, medtner, and scriabin would be more suited.
For me Kurt Cobain is a legend. Nirvana may just be some of the best music I've heard in my life. You can say it's weird, depressing or different, but for me that is what makes Nirvana special.
Never thought Juice's music was amazing or anything i thought he was GOOD but thats it until i started getting into his unreleased songs and i'm just saying he would've been one of the best if he was here today the music he left behind that he hadnt released yet is so fire
This right here is what most people need to realize. He had the most fire music but it's all unreleased. And don't get me wrong I love his official stuff too but something hits different with a lot of the stuff that is yet to be released.
Things like this always sound confusing to me like "bro you gotta listen to the songs he didn't release those are the best ones" like in the case of Juice I guess it's a bit different but are we including the songs released posthumously or just the unreleased ones? Because feels like songs don't get released for a reason
In New York I Milly Rock Hide it in my sock Running from the opp And I shoot at opp And I'm on the block sorry i was just listening to carti when i wrote this.
The thing abt juice is that his fan base and discography are so saturated with his post death fans and songs that it takes away from how special he was while he was alive. As a Chicago native and long time fan of juice I would say that his raw talent and ability was special. I’ve been to hip hop concerts but juices hit different and I’ve been saying that since the day I went. Like x is to you juice is similar for some who knew his music well while he was alive.
Juice's legacy has been greatly effected by his younger audience, and not in a positive way. He was one of the most talented freestylers, and had respect from goats of rap, but when people think of him now who aren't necessary huge fans, they see a wall of middle school kids who are the bart simpson all girls are the same fans. It really hurts me that his legacy has come to this and there's nothing he can do about it. His unreleased hype songs are so fire and I hope that they can be shared with everyone one day.
Na the guys right i fuckn love juices songs but hes not a legend, his album were good, but his leaks were what topped him to the max for me cuz ive never heard someone make songs like that. And me since i was a kid a always hum and make chorus type shit that came to my mind and i would love it my whole life, and when i heard his songs it gave me that feeling, but with xxx his old songs are crazy good and listening at night gives it a creepy third eye opening type shit especially his beats and his song i spoke to the devil in miami"
Love to hear about music you love! David Bowie was an absolute legend indeed. You don't have to just talk about rap and shit tho lol, it's cool to hear something different
For me Kurt Cobain changed music for me forever. Goes to show how technical skill is not a necessity for great music and it’s how it makes you feel. Kurt was a legend and changed music forever. Weirdly enough Kurt was pretty technical in using non harmonic tones. He uses them to resolve and build tension better than anyone imo.
A good benchmark for A legend in music is something like this, they should have at least 5 great songs and 15 really good songs. Kurt Konain does not even come close. He has ZERO great songs. I would say he had 3 good songs so yawn. I would actually say had he lived he would’ve been forgettable.
@@averydaymond1560 Respectfully I disagree, I honestly haven’t heard a song written by Kurt that I didn’t like, but that is my opinion. In my opinion bleach, nevermind and in utero don’t have any skips for me not the mention the b-sides but that my taste. Yours might be different.
Nirvana changed the music as we see it today. Definitely up there with legends or close to them imo. Kurt was a genius. He knew how to make perfect music with simple chords.
@@averydaymond1560 imo if someone changed the music as we see it or did something never seen before or gets talked about even decades after their death or maybe the thing you said above is a legend. You haven't dived much rock genre if you don't think Nirvana band is up there with top rock bands. 99% of the people in music community will agree with Nirvana being s tier. The only reason people hate them is because they have become way too mainstream and wanna be emo kids listen to them nowadays. Smells like teen spirit, lithium, come as you are, heart shaped box these are one of the songs that you'll have to learn when you are learning guitar and are considered among one of the most classic songs of the late 80s and early 90s. So if songs of some band is "taught" as a subject or something in most of the online guitar courses then I think they can classify as a legend.
@@CarlJohnson-iv7sn I see it differently obviously. The Cobain fans I’ve known have had true angst and often are quiet outsiders with high emotions. They connected even more with him after he ya know didn’t make it out so to speak. I’m just saying it’s often his fans identify with him personally & his look at life being the dominant admiration for him. As for 99% of the people in the music community being fans of his, uh nah nope. In fact it’s actually rare that he’s listed as an influence by musicians.
Amazing video and amazing points but Juice WRLD has to be somewhere in the legend debate. His freestyles, his consistency, his voice, its all there. He pioneered the soundcloud era as JuiceTheKidd alongside trippie, xxx, pump, carti, etc. His beats are insane like Burn or sometimes.
The X death hit me so hard I clearly remember it was June 18,2018 on a Monday between early afternoon hours I was in the movie theaters watching Ms.Incredible with my friends and one of my friends told me during the movie that X got shot. All of us fw with X but I told myself he got shot he’s gonna be alright. After the movie ended, we all checked our phones and realized he died and we all sat/stood there like 15 minutes after the movie ended just shocked at the news. That shit is embedded into my mind, all 5-7 of us were in disbelief. Really sad to see the way he died too.
W opinion cant say much about peep myself havent listened to much of it i mainly listen to juice and sometimes youngboy (i aint a troll or nothing tho)
he's a legend in the underground scene, no doubt about it. he had songs with smokepurpp, thouxanbanfauni, wiz whalifa and juicy j, germ, baby e, and a lot more, so he had plenty of potential.
You hit everything RIGHT on the spot with the X, Juice and Peep stuff. Personally for me, X was my “goat” and when he died it hit me REALLY hard man. Overtime, I kind of dwindled away from his music but it’s not cause I lost love for his music it’s just like you said, you cant really make new stuff if you are no longer here. Now for Juice, I definitely fw the guys music and his capability for freestyling (not all of the music was for me tho personally) his fanbase gotta be one of the most cringe tho IMO (referring to the people who have Juice WRLD songs as their entire personality in a sense and act fake “emo”) Peep is someone I really tried to listen too and like (white wine or benz truck prolly the only songs i like from him tbh) but most of his music is not good to me but that’s just my opinion so don’t get upset. Rest In Peace to all of these artists who were gone too soon. 🖤
I agree with what you said about juice wrlds fan base☠️. & I consider myself a huge juice wrld fan but I don't like all of his songs though not all of them hit for me. But his fam base makes me😭🤢
Nah this was funny asf I love when ppl flame other peoples favourite rappers and I get it’s a joke which for me makes it even more funny. I’m a juice fan and when he said the Bart thing I couldn’t stop laughing W vid
Nujabes is a good example of a dead artist that might not be as remembered as some more mainstream names but his influence on hip-hop and his pioneering of the Lofi genre makes him a legend to me.
Not songs but influence, a legacy to cure mental health. No reason to hate and the only WhT people hate DESD people Is that they get attention that they don’t
@@elmerayala5366 He’s literally one of the greatest lyricists of all time and is only getting better. His music may not sound the same as it used to but he’s at the top of his game in terms of technicality and skill.
I've been a huge jw fan throughout the years and i can say that his label did him dirty. Everyone says he only makes sad shit because that is literally the only thing his label let him drop. He got so many hype hard songs in the vault, it's crazy, and his music catalog is even crazier. And because of that, everyone outside of his loyal fanbase see him as a sad emo kid that is heartbroken forever. WIsh more people would see his other side. He hard asf
As of the time this comment is made, there are over 3,000 unreleased songs from Juice Wrld and not even 500 of them have been revealed to his community, myself included. The reason why I like to view him as a legend is that he had a passion for music that he is confirmed to have made over 3,000 songs, and not like every other artist in the music industry who has a dilemma over the few songs they’re yet to release. On top of all this, the secret to his stream of songs is his ability to freestyle and come up with lyrics in the second of a thought which he just puts in the song. Dude was attached, music was his life, he was his own music. He was super young with a depressing ass life and if he was still alive, he could be signing so many records for songs that he had made years earlier, making bank off his unreleased for possibly the rest of his life. But we know he wouldn’t stop there, he’d just continue writing more songs, possibly more than any artist ever in existence. Listening to some of his unreleased and posthumous songs just makes you wish in 2024 that he was alive and well. The shit he went through was real too, and the dedication and motivation of the songs were his life. A little profane but it just hit a new note each time. Juice is a legend of the rap community, no further questions asked. That name will be immortalized once those unreleased songs come to light. Just hope he isn’t in a bad place.
A music group that has affected me in recent is Injury Reserve. I listened to their music on a long car ride home and I gotta say, their discography is probably the most consistent in terms of how good their albums are. Sure there are like one-two skips per album but overall, everything else completely outshines the stinkers. And those stinkers are just songs or interludes that are ok at best. It was cool seeing their development from their first mixtape, "Live from the dentists office" to their 1st official self-titled album. They really stsrted knowing what they were and felt like their music was reaching its maximum potential. Unfortunately, a year or so ago (June 2020), one of the 3 members, Stepa J Groggs had died due to undisclosed reasons (most likely alcohol abuse since he talked about the struggle to improve himself throughout his lyrics) and it left the state of the group confused. One of the most crucial members of the band had died. And they were super close to being finished with their next album, "by the time i get to phoenix". What used to be their energy of "ayy we them boys" that was especially reflected in their previous album had been stripped away. Eventually, in october or so of 2021, they finally released By the time i get to phoenix, and it was a radically different sound to what the previous albums were. It was a heart-wrenching, sonically confusing album and most likely one of injury reserve's last works (although they published a music video for their opening album track, "outside" earlier today, which took me on a loop, and theyre still on tour in Europe for the album, so theyre not done with this album yet). It reflected the uncertainty of the groups future and the mourning of their closest friend's sudden death. The whole album was an experience like no other, and the only prescence of groggs was in their 2nd to last track, "knees", where he talked about the same struggles that most likely killed him. It was saddening and the album did what it wanted to do excellently. Reflect the feelings of the remaining two members. I love injury reserve's discography and i believe stepa J Groggs is one for the history books. Rest in peace, and my prayers go out to his family and daughter as well as the other two members of the group
lowkey the most moving yet depressing album of '21. i fucking love injury reserve and wanted to see them in a few days in cologne but it got canceled :/ rip groggs!

There’s definitely a line between “legend” and “an artist with great potential”. I love Pop Smoke, like, way too much, but he only had 2 albums released while he was actually alive, the 2 posthumous albums are great too ngl. I wouldn’t say he’s a legend, but he had insane potential. Still one of my favorite rappers of all time
yeah it almost makes it more sad, like... juice wrld is my favorite rapper but he made an insane amount of music and i'm satisfied with his stuff, but i love pop smoke and it hurts to see he has such a small amount of songs out, he just didn't record as much as juice and was newer in the game. 🙏
idk bout you but he could be considered a legend here in ny solely for what he did for the city. He really made this sht global and mfs will never forget that
@@moneymakinmitch8130 you right that’s true. Being a legend isn’t based on how much you did but rather the effect of what you did. I honestly really hope we get someone else like him in the future
I didn’t really listen to his music before he died because I wasn’t that in tune with NY drill even though being from there myself I started listening to him maybe a year or almost a year after he died because at that time I started listening to ny drill and I became a fan of his shit and till this day the shit saddens me that he’s gone and I might like his shit too much aswell because I be in the middle of listening to his music and I sit there like damn he really gone we not getting no more new music type shit 😂
I do feel like he can be considered a legend because he put NY drill on the map people were doing their thing before him of course but his friends and even his enemies were able to get put on by him he’s one of maybe two rappers I felt truly saddened by their death and the other would be nick blixky what really hit me was right after he announced his album was finna be released he got killed so he wouldn’t even know how well it would’ve done and nothing would be filmed for it

Prince (1958-2016) was the first artist whose death hit me hard. I was born in 2004, long after the peak of his career, but I knew we lost a legend.
That entire Purple Rain album was fucking phenomenal. When I first heard the guitar solo/outro from "Let's Go Crazy", I got so many chills I almost cried. It's that beautiful.
And his performance at Super Bowl XLI in 2007 was better than the game itself, even as a Peyton Manning fan.
"Purple Rain" during that halftime show genuinely made me shed a tear, because not only is this rendition a solid 10/10, I believe the hand of God was on him as there was a rainstorm in Miami that night, and the rain even glowed purple with his stage.

I have to say you can feel the emotion in a lot of his songs, for me, the last segment of Bohemian Rhapsody hit me hard and I'm actually not that sure why.

I feel like a lot of what makes an artist a legend isn’t just what they did music wise but as a person as well. Like Muhammad Ali and Tupac. They did so much outside of boxing/music for their community. And that’s why they’re legends
Tupac praised people giving but usually wanted other celebs to distribute their wealth meanwhile he was loathing
But still if you're actually really good in your field, you can still be considered a legend or a GOAT (although this term is actually more subjective than the former).
Much like Mike Tyson or Pop Smoke.
It's fine to consider Mike Tyson a legend or a GOAT, because really before his downfall with Don King and Cus' death, he was the hardest puncher. Pretty sure by a landslide, of course I acknowledge he definitely had some hard fights like Holyfield, Smith and Lennox Lewis.
I don't remember or know what Pop Smoke did outside of his music. Only footage I've seem of him was in his music videos, a podcast with a lady and him walking, thats it. But by many, he's still considered a legend. Of course, not as much as Tupac or other great artists from 90s-2000s like 50cent, Nas, etc.
So my conclusion is, don't call someone a GOAT if they're music isn't all that. You can call them a legend though, for their influential range, their creativity, etc. or other factors which would mostly be outside of the music scene.
But what do I know? I'm just a guy who likes lobsters.
Tupac was a wannabe gangbanger. Started hanging with suge who also wasn’t a member and started talking bout he MOB. Tried banging on a real crip and go knocced
@@CN86443 tbh you're right. I didn't even know him before he died, heard some of his music but didn't know him. I'm talking bullshit fr

Elliott Smith hands down is my favorite artist ever. Got music for when I am down or happy. Even his earlier stuff with heatmiser is amazing imo. I wish he was still here making stuff he was so talented. His guitar playing technique is so subtle, but interesting. The odd chords he would just play casually where you have to stretch your hand to timbuktu. When he would just manage to make a chord from a completely different key just fit flawlessly into his sound. The different genres from noise rock in later songs such as coast to coast to the more simple folk stuff in songs like whatever (folk song in c) proved how versatile he was. Plus the punk stuff with Heatmiser.

@rD mooD2 full heartedly agree, macs evolution as an artist showed so much fucking potential. Tragic that we didn’t get to see more projects, especially since the release of circles, which is one of the best albums for me personally, which showed a lot of musical talent
Im in the same boat with MF DOOM. Someone I was talking to introduced me to his music 6 months after his death and now im sad that I can never go see him live
I hadn't heard anything by Mac Miller since like 2012.. he was bigger back when I was in middle school from 08-2010
The term “legend” has definitely been thrown around a lot to the point where the meaning isn’t as impactful but I think something that’s really important to consider is the impact the artist made. You don’t need to like someone’s like peep’s music but the impact he made was undeniable. Peep, X, Juice, Uzi, etc. basically formed the new gen. In fact Juice WRLD even admitted that peep was one of his biggest inspirations.
Everyone has their personal opinions but I think what truly makes someone a legend is the objective impact they made.
you literally just said what the video said how original
@@hernandez4856 Not really, the video was more formulated around personal opinions, which is fine, but it’s also important to look at things objectively and the impact they had on the industry.
@@drowzeee yes you did plus all you said was an opinion 🤦♂️ the stupidity is embarrassing
All the people you mentioned only inspired very similar artists in recent years. It's not like they had this massive widespread global influence even outside of their subgenre. And I'm not saying they weren't good, or they weren't influential. Just seems like people constantly overstate their impact on music
To me a legendary artist is someone who came into the game and not only made their own lane but also changed the way future artists approach the craft. Legendary artists have a way of being authentically themselves to the point of being highly influential while also fitting in with what is hot atm. These people make waves that change currents
I relate a bit cus before hearing of his passing, I had no idea what a Pop Smoke was, but then when I heard of the news I gave it a shot to see like "oh well let's see what type of music this guy made" and I immediately fell in love with his heavy drill tracks and some of his melodic one.
I feel like a legend is someone who genuinely impacts the music genre they make

@@saturnzbarz1827 DOOM Eminem and Jay

@@deveshdox6524 Juice just had good music but X was on a diff level. Goodbye and good riddance is a 10/10 tho

Juice still my favorite artist. He was such a good freestyler and had a melody nobody can match

@@DABUNGINATOR what i can say after skimming through a few songs is that Raujika takes a more dirty, gritty path, which case reminds me most of Madlib.

Mac Miller's music has definitely resonated with me on a pretty deep level. Though not necessarily listening to his music before his passing, so I don't have much of an emotional connection to him as a person, I was able to really connect with how he feels on LPs like Circles and Swimming. I don't know if he's a legend or anything, but he's definitely an artist that has defined a low era in my life.
In all honesty, I wasn't a Mac fan at all until after his untimely death. I heard his early frat boy stuff and thought he was garbage so I never listened to him again. So it came as a shock to me how much the music, especially hip hop, world was mourning him. Then when Circles dropped, I was astounded by how much his sound had evolved. I was in a dark place at the time and this somber album from a rapper I used to think was trash brought me peace and serenity. Then I went backwards on his discography with Swimming, Faces, etc and I'm saddened that I was so quick to write him off as "another frat boy rapper" and now I have Circles on repeat. Even though I only became a fan after his passing, his album run will certify his legend status in the years to come
I prefer him over nas and cole fr imo anybody can make a illmatic and off season nowadays but Mac’s discography from 2012-18 is untouchable and truly one of a kind.. it was a privilege watching him grow from party raps to straight artistry, also swimming is NOT his best project for straight bars and raps WMWTSO,Faces,GOOD AM,his Delusional Thomas mixtape/any SoundCloud only released songs will show you dude could truly spit if he wanted to.. dude has so much it’s insane I have 9 HOURS worth of leaks/SoundCloud songs on my phone

The difference between legends like Tupac and recently dead artists is the fact that Tupac's music had time to age.

"I can't say the same for these guys nowadays" yeah cause you haven't given it the fuckin chance, it hasn't aged yet so you don't know if it'll survive.

I know this is somewhat off-topic, but the point you make about artists’ deaths at the beginning of the video reminded me of this. I still remember the day Chester Bennington (Linkin Park lead vocalist for those unaware) died by suic*de. It was the first time a celebrity death really hit me. It didn’t feel real at the time. I didn’t even know this guy, yet I was devastated when I heard the news. He was one of the most influential vocalists of the 21st century, not just in heavy metal, but in all of music in general. His band left an impact on culture that few people are able to. I don’t like everything he made, and his death didn’t change that, but now I look back on even the less great stuff more fondly. I’ll never forget the impact his work had on my teen years. Even after nearly 5 years, the world still misses him. Rest In Power.
I cried when David Bowie died, just cuz that dude was such a big name throughout his whole career and his death and final album felt surreal. He put out his last album right before he died which reminded me a lot of J Dilla’s final album and passing. I don’t even care about most celebs/artists but something about a musical legend leaving this world kinda hits hard, especially when it happens to an artist you listen to and appreciate.

Everytime i listen to Accordion i get reminded of his death and i get depressed every time.
Degenerocity is one of the guys I relate with the most 😂

Miki Matsubara is a good artist, though not many people know of her other than her song “Stay With Me”. Her final thoughts on her own career only fill me with sadness because yes she made music but she felt like she wasted her life making it instead of seeking more from it. May she Rest In Peace, and may all these artists Rest In Peace.
Her music is great, people are missing out

X is no doubt the biggest legend in todays generation i remember finding him back in 2015 and till this day his music is the only music that can reach me like that in a hype or in a sad way. what he has done was real versatile art of music. and dont even let me start with him as a person. irreplaceable artist for me

yeah hes definitely a legend.
I got to say I was never really a linkin park fan but I can not lie I was put on music early and would listen as a kid but the lyrics were just so much different.
100% agree
This too true
Chester is in my opinion, an S tier legend. RIP
It feels weird that almost half a decade has passed since Chester Bennington’s passing, whilst I still feel dissatisfied with how the last Linkin Park album was… I hope at least some of the wounds have healed to the rest of the group.
i never liked Chester for the one reason
his earings. music is good tho
Mike's Post Traumatic made it up for me. The last album was mostly meh at first for me, after his death, yea, reflection and shit, you start to kinda see between the lines.
Years after, it goes a little back to that old "meh" feeling. I love chester and LP and all, but the last album, is more of a emotional feeling than rock or something.
Mike's PT after the death of chester helped me accept that, the last album of LP really was just kinda meh, and that it isnt all that bad

I personally consider juice a legend myself, I was going through a really hard time with my grandma dying and shortly after my parents divorcing when I found him. His music really connected with me on a spiritual level, and even if you didn’t feel the music, you couldn’t ignore the raw talent. Like fr tho… who in the world freestyles for one hour straight? Even though he couldn’t reach his full potential, he’s gotta be up there with the all time greats, because no one in the scene could even touch him at his peak. I’m talking world. Wide. Fame. And he is probably always gonna be one of the most talented artists we’ve ever scene when it really comes down to the skill he had. Just my prospective
Forreal man juice wrld saved me from myself
yea 999
Yea but it's tough to call todays lean rappers legends when there's music out there basically a million times better than it. In every possible aspect xD. I myself listen to todays rap and hiphop everyday, but i feel like they can't compare in any way to singers and rappers from the 20th century and early 2000's.
@@ivocarapina358 what
I'd definitely consider Juice a legend, He has a solid discography, even WOD and then there's his unreleased music, it jus really shows how talented and versatile he really was. I remember when I first heard him, there was jus something bout him that jus stuck, something bout him jus made him standout from the rest. Imo his prolly the most talented artist to have ever do it, in terms of technical ability, wouldve loved him and Kanye work together or Ye executive producer a couple of his albums to really help him reach his extremely high potential
I’m still sad about MF DOOM’s death. Songs like Rap Snitches and All Caps slapped and it sucks to know that he can’t make any more bangers-
I think Ariel Camacho, Vicente Fernandez, Joan Sebastian, Juan Gabriel, Valentin Elizalde and Chalino Sanchez are true legends in the Mexican music industry
Same thing with Selena even though she’s Mexican American.
The Fact You Gave David Bowie Credit Is Awesome, A Lot of people don't give him the credit he deserves

Never thought Juice's music was amazing or anything i thought he was GOOD but thats it until i started getting into his unreleased songs and i'm just saying he would've been one of the best if he was here today the music he left behind that he hadnt released yet is so fire
This right here is what most people need to realize. He had the most fire music but it's all unreleased. And don't get me wrong I love his official stuff too but something hits different with a lot of the stuff that is yet to be released.
Factsss with that last part
I don't remember the last time I actually played his released stuff, only be on SoundCloud wit his unreleased lol
you can’t lie juice was an absolute god at freestyling
Things like this always sound confusing to me like "bro you gotta listen to the songs he didn't release those are the best ones" like in the case of Juice I guess it's a bit different but are we including the songs released posthumously or just the unreleased ones? Because feels like songs don't get released for a reason

The thing abt juice is that his fan base and discography are so saturated with his post death fans and songs that it takes away from how special he was while he was alive. As a Chicago native and long time fan of juice I would say that his raw talent and ability was special. I’ve been to hip hop concerts but juices hit different and I’ve been saying that since the day I went. Like x is to you juice is similar for some who knew his music well while he was alive.
Juice's legacy has been greatly effected by his younger audience, and not in a positive way. He was one of the most talented freestylers, and had respect from goats of rap, but when people think of him now who aren't necessary huge fans, they see a wall of middle school kids who are the bart simpson all girls are the same fans. It really hurts me that his legacy has come to this and there's nothing he can do about it. His unreleased hype songs are so fire and I hope that they can be shared with everyone one day.
I don’t even admit to be a juice wrld fan anymore because of this shit
@Aidan Fricker learn how to read and maybe what I said will make sense crack baby ass nigga
Na the guys right i fuckn love juices songs but hes not a legend, his album were good, but his leaks were what topped him to the max for me cuz ive never heard someone make songs like that. And me since i was a kid a always hum and make chorus type shit that came to my mind and i would love it my whole life, and when i heard his songs it gave me that feeling, but with xxx his old songs are crazy good and listening at night gives it a creepy third eye opening type shit especially his beats and his song i spoke to the devil in miami"
His fanbase after he died is what made not listen to him anymore
Aviici was incredible, loved his music when he was alive but I discovered I knew more than i thought i did of his catalogue when he passed
Love to hear about music you love! David Bowie was an absolute legend indeed. You don't have to just talk about rap and shit tho lol, it's cool to hear something different
P.S. My favourite dead artist would have to be George Harrison or maybe Nick Drake, that last man made some absolutely mystical music in my opinion.
For me Kurt Cobain changed music for me forever. Goes to show how technical skill is not a necessity for great music and it’s how it makes you feel. Kurt was a legend and changed music forever.
Weirdly enough Kurt was pretty technical in using non harmonic tones. He uses them to resolve and build tension better than anyone imo.
A good benchmark for A legend in music is something like this, they should have at least 5 great songs and 15 really good songs. Kurt Konain does not even come close. He has ZERO great songs. I would say he had 3 good songs so yawn. I would actually say had he lived he would’ve been forgettable.
@@averydaymond1560 Respectfully I disagree, I honestly haven’t heard a song written by Kurt that I didn’t like, but that is my opinion. In my opinion bleach, nevermind and in utero don’t have any skips for me not the mention the b-sides but that my taste. Yours might be different.
Nirvana changed the music as we see it today. Definitely up there with legends or close to them imo. Kurt was a genius. He knew how to make perfect music with simple chords.
@@averydaymond1560 imo if someone changed the music as we see it or did something never seen before or gets talked about even decades after their death or maybe the thing you said above is a legend. You haven't dived much rock genre if you don't think Nirvana band is up there with top rock bands. 99% of the people in music community will agree with Nirvana being s tier. The only reason people hate them is because they have become way too mainstream and wanna be emo kids listen to them nowadays. Smells like teen spirit, lithium, come as you are, heart shaped box these are one of the songs that you'll have to learn when you are learning guitar and are considered among one of the most classic songs of the late 80s and early 90s. So if songs of some band is "taught" as a subject or something in most of the online guitar courses then I think they can classify as a legend.
@@CarlJohnson-iv7sn I see it differently obviously. The Cobain fans I’ve known have had true angst and often are quiet outsiders with high emotions. They connected even more with him after he ya know didn’t make it out so to speak. I’m just saying it’s often his fans identify with him personally & his look at life being the dominant admiration for him.
As for 99% of the people in the music community being fans of his, uh nah nope. In fact it’s actually rare that he’s listed as an influence by musicians.
what made me respect juice wrld a lot is once I got into his unreleased music it made me realize how much of a generational talent he was.

Amazing video and amazing points but Juice WRLD has to be somewhere in the legend debate. His freestyles, his consistency, his voice, its all there. He pioneered the soundcloud era as JuiceTheKidd alongside trippie, xxx, pump, carti, etc. His beats are insane like Burn or sometimes.
The X death hit me so hard I clearly remember it was June 18,2018 on a Monday between early afternoon hours I was in the movie theaters watching Ms.Incredible with my friends and one of my friends told me during the movie that X got shot. All of us fw with X but I told myself he got shot he’s gonna be alright. After the movie ended, we all checked our phones and realized he died and we all sat/stood there like 15 minutes after the movie ended just shocked at the news. That shit is embedded into my mind, all 5-7 of us were in disbelief. Really sad to see the way he died too.

As a huge Peep fan, I respect your opinion. Peep made music for a specific audience, not so much mainstream
W opinion cant say much about peep myself havent listened to much of it i mainly listen to juice and sometimes youngboy (i aint a troll or nothing tho)
I mean he also died really young, his collab with Wiz Khalifa and Juicy J showed that he can tap into different sounds
he's a legend in the underground scene, no doubt about it. he had songs with smokepurpp, thouxanbanfauni, wiz whalifa and juicy j, germ, baby e, and a lot more, so he had plenty of potential.
Juice wrld was a massive fanboy of peep and x he took both of there sounds and mainstreamed it…
W. He has so much underrated songs. Unreleased etc that no one knows really. He is so good but I understand completely why people dont like him lol
rip degenerocity gone too soon
Seeing him talk about David bowie was weird and refreshing at the same time
You hit everything RIGHT on the spot with the X, Juice and Peep stuff. Personally for me, X was my “goat” and when he died it hit me REALLY hard man. Overtime, I kind of dwindled away from his music but it’s not cause I lost love for his music it’s just like you said, you cant really make new stuff if you are no longer here. Now for Juice, I definitely fw the guys music and his capability for freestyling (not all of the music was for me tho personally) his fanbase gotta be one of the most cringe tho IMO (referring to the people who have Juice WRLD songs as their entire personality in a sense and act fake “emo”) Peep is someone I really tried to listen too and like (white wine or benz truck prolly the only songs i like from him tbh) but most of his music is not good to me but that’s just my opinion so don’t get upset. Rest In Peace to all of these artists who were gone too soon. 🖤
HAHAHAHA true, some of them really made juice as their whole personality 😂👎🏻
You should check out some songs on lil peep pt 1, only on SoundCloud but I think it’s the best music he’s made which is ironically before his hype

As of the time this comment is made, there are over 3,000 unreleased songs from Juice Wrld and not even 500 of them have been revealed to his community, myself included. The reason why I like to view him as a legend is that he had a passion for music that he is confirmed to have made over 3,000 songs, and not like every other artist in the music industry who has a dilemma over the few songs they’re yet to release. On top of all this, the secret to his stream of songs is his ability to freestyle and come up with lyrics in the second of a thought which he just puts in the song. Dude was attached, music was his life, he was his own music. He was super young with a depressing ass life and if he was still alive, he could be signing so many records for songs that he had made years earlier, making bank off his unreleased for possibly the rest of his life. But we know he wouldn’t stop there, he’d just continue writing more songs, possibly more than any artist ever in existence. Listening to some of his unreleased and posthumous songs just makes you wish in 2024 that he was alive and well. The shit he went through was real too, and the dedication and motivation of the songs were his life. A little profane but it just hit a new note each time. Juice is a legend of the rap community, no further questions asked. That name will be immortalized once those unreleased songs come to light. Just hope he isn’t in a bad place.
A music group that has affected me in recent is Injury Reserve. I listened to their music on a long car ride home and I gotta say, their discography is probably the most consistent in terms of how good their albums are. Sure there are like one-two skips per album but overall, everything else completely outshines the stinkers. And those stinkers are just songs or interludes that are ok at best. It was cool seeing their development from their first mixtape, "Live from the dentists office" to their 1st official self-titled album. They really stsrted knowing what they were and felt like their music was reaching its maximum potential. Unfortunately, a year or so ago (June 2020), one of the 3 members, Stepa J Groggs had died due to undisclosed reasons (most likely alcohol abuse since he talked about the struggle to improve himself throughout his lyrics) and it left the state of the group confused. One of the most crucial members of the band had died. And they were super close to being finished with their next album, "by the time i get to phoenix". What used to be their energy of "ayy we them boys" that was especially reflected in their previous album had been stripped away. Eventually, in october or so of 2021, they finally released By the time i get to phoenix, and it was a radically different sound to what the previous albums were. It was a heart-wrenching, sonically confusing album and most likely one of injury reserve's last works (although they published a music video for their opening album track, "outside" earlier today, which took me on a loop, and theyre still on tour in Europe for the album, so theyre not done with this album yet). It reflected the uncertainty of the groups future and the mourning of their closest friend's sudden death. The whole album was an experience like no other, and the only prescence of groggs was in their 2nd to last track, "knees", where he talked about the same struggles that most likely killed him. It was saddening and the album did what it wanted to do excellently. Reflect the feelings of the remaining two members. I love injury reserve's discography and i believe stepa J Groggs is one for the history books. Rest in peace, and my prayers go out to his family and daughter as well as the other two members of the group
