Now, in a new documentary, Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss, reveals the artist — Jarad Anthony Higgins — had been struggling with severe drug addiction and debilitating mental health problems.
It also reveals his last moments as he was flying from Los Angeles to Chicago.
Authorities on the ground at the destination airport were alerted that the rapper was flying with guns and drugs on board.
Then, when the plane landed, it was discovered that Juice WRLD had taken several unknown pills — before he began convulsing in the airport with bleeding from his mouth.
Despite administering Narcan, which is used to treat opioid overdoses, he was pronounced dead upon arrival at a nearby medical centre.
The Cook County Medical Examiner stated that Higgins died as a result of toxic levels of oxycodone and codeine present in his system.

In footage from Juice Wrld's entourage shared to TMZ, the youngster can be seen joking around — pranking one snoozing pal by splashing water on his face.
The rapper, who spoke candidly about his prescription drug taking of "lean," a toxic concoction of cough syrup and soda favoured by the likes of Lil Wayne and opioids Percocet and Xanax once rapped: "What's the 27 club? We ain't making it past 21."
The lyric is from a song written shortly after the deaths of Lil Peep, 21 and XXXTenaction, 20.
Juice Wrld had hits with Lucid Dreams in 2018 and All Girls Are the Same.
