Singer Jarad Higgins, known professionally as Juice Wrld, has passed away. Early this morning he took a flight from California to Chicago. Upon disembarking, he appeared to have a seizure. When the paramedics got to him he was bleeding from his mouth. The fire department took him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. No cause of death has yet been revealed. He had just turned twenty-one years old.

Jarad got into music by listening to soundtracks in video games. He eventually began producing his own music and uploading them to his SoundCloud account using the name JuicetheKidd. He eventually began producing rap music, including one that made it to second place on the United States' Billboard Hot 100 list. He wrote and sang the song Hide along with Seezyn for the soundtrack of the hit film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

He has long suffered from drug abuse throughout his childhood. He began using purple drank in sixth grade before moving onto percocets and xanax. He also smoked but gave that up during his senior year of high school due to health issues.
