In an Instagram comment captured by DJ Akademiks, Herbo explains that Juice WRLD was battling personal problems and wasn't trying to "fit in" by using drugs.
"Niggas ain't tryna be cool shorty was on top of the fucking world you think he was trying to fit in???" Herbo wrote before explaining that he struggles with the same issues. "I got 50 dead homies... nigga been shot in the streets. 10 years of my life been addicted to Xanax lean x pills Percocet still smoke weed everyday all day til this day... This shit a daily process!! Juice WRLD made some of the best music in the world with his own style he ain't have to fucking fit in."
Joyner caught wind of this comment and decided to clarify his statement, claiming that he was speaking more about the state of rap music than Juice WRLD's personal life.
