Chicago, IL

Joyner Lucas has evidently struck a chord with G Herbo. A day after Lucas blamed Juice Wrld’s death on “rappers who glorified drugs,” Herbo hopped on Instagram to throw in his two cents.

In his comment, Herbo explained Lucas had no idea what kind of demons Juice Wrld was wrestling and slammed him for suggesting the late rapper was simply trying to blend in with everyone else around him.

“He a fucking clown,” he begins. “Niggas don’t know what niggas going thru! Niggas ain’t tryna be cool shorty was on top of the fucking world you think he was tryna fit in??? If that Shit was easy shorty would’ve quit!! Shorty ain’t seen nun of this shit coming!!! He ain’t see millions coming from fame coming nun of that shit!!

“I got 50 homies dead On my granny nigga been shot beein the streets over 10 years of my life been addicted to Xanax lean x pills Percocet still smoke weed everyday all day til this day!” [apple_news_ad type=”any”]

The Chicago-bred rapper then admitted he’s had his own struggles and chastised Lucas for even broaching the topic.

“I was BLESSED with a strong enough mind to quit that lean & other shit whenever I want!” he wrote. “I been to Detox twice!! That shit a daily process!! Juice made some of the best music in the world with his own style he ain’t have to fucking fit in!!

“Niggas be having to self medicate!! He was a star!! He can’t go on stage thinking about the demons he fighting in his head… I can speak about this shit on & on man but this shit always deeper than what you see so don’t speak on SHIT if you can ‘t say I once done it or I RELATE to it!”

He concluded his rant with a middle finger emoji.

However, Lucas told a fan he did understand what Juice Wrld was experiencing, writing, “I never said juice world glorified them. I knew what juice spoke about. Poor kid was depressed and went thru a lot so he used drugs as a outlet.

“Its this generation of music that glorified drugs and made them cool so kids like him and other kids abuse them. It’s a cycle dude. Smh.”

Although an official cause of death is still pending, Juice Wrld reportedly swallowed a handful of Percocets before his death.

The pilot of his private plane had called authorities to report there were multiple guns onboard. When the plane landed at Chicago’s Midway Airport on Sunday (December 8), the FBI and FAA were waiting to search the plane. That’s when Juice Wrld was said to have ingested the pills.

He collapsed and went into a seizure shortly after. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
