I can recall Jarad [Anthony Higgins aka Juice WRLD] playing Eminem's music on repeat at home because he was a huge fan.

On the song,Juice talks about the impact of the drugs he took in his lifetime. Eminem reflects on his own struggle with drugs early in his career:"I was lucky,my escape was narrow and due / Now think I take it for granted / That I'm still here,synthetic heroin you tried to kill me,then you murdered Jarad,didn't you? / Juice WRLD / Addiction's like a fuckin' vicious cycle / Juice,we will forever miss you / To the younger generation,I ain't lecturin' you,but man just be careful when you…".
