XXXTENTACION and Juice WRLD are expected to collaborate from beyond the grave on not just one, but two, new posthumous songs.
Lil Bibby — who runs Grade A Productions, the label to whom Juice was signed — publicly teased new music from the late rappers on social media on Thursday (July 18).

Posting on Instagram Stories, the Chicago native (who himself used to rap) posted a screenshot of a group chat including various members of X and Juice’s teams, with the thread titled “Juice wrld xxx.”
XXXTENTACION’s official Instagram account also posted the same screenshot.
DJ Scheme, who worked closely with both X and Juice before their deaths, further fueled excitement by writing on X (formerly Twitter): “Confirmed 2 Song[s] Are Coming Out.”

A collaboration between the two late rappers has been rumored since both men died, with XXXTENTACION being shot to death in 2018 and Juice WRLD passing away from a drug overdose a year later.
In 2020, DJ Scheme said he was “working hard to make this happen.” However, Juice’s girlfriend at the time of his death was not so certain a collaboration would happen.
“Doubt it’ll come out,” Ally Lotti said to a fan on social media. “I’m guessing if it was it would have already been. so idk but i have video from that night. J made two or three song a we were in a hotel room over seas.”
She continued: “I was there when he recorded the verse for jah. This happened over a year and a half -two years ago yal. . this wasn’t new info.”
After X was shot and killed outside of a motorsports dealership in Florida, Juice released a two-track EP paying tribute to the “Look At Me!” hitmaker, as well as Lil Peep who had also recently died.
