Friends And Family Pay Tribute To Juice Wrld At Private Funeral In Chicago

Family and friends of late rapper Juice Wrld gathered for a private funeral held at Holy Temple Cathedral Church of God in Christ in Harvey, Illinois, a suburb of the rapper’s hometown of Chicago.

Juice Wrld’s mother, Carmella Wallace, honored her son at the funeral, along with his grandmother, siblings and other family members. Fellow rapper and close friend Ski Mask the Slump God, and executives from Interscope Records, Wrld’s record label, were also reportedly in attendance. The funeral services came nearly one week after Wlrd, whose birth name was Jarad Higgins, died on December 8 at the age 21 after suffering a seizure at Chicago Midway Airport.

The rapper, whose song “Lucid Dreams” hit No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in 2018, was walking through the airport when the incident occurred. He was transported to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office has yet to determine his cause of death, but Wrld’s family released a statement on Thursday, December 12, about his struggle with prescription drug addiction.
