Death Doesn’t Make You a Legend 

Ngl, I genuinely enjoyed this video. And i dont even watch other creators like myself like that fr fr. X and juice were my favorite out of all of them. X was around the same age as me and had the same sense of humor/introverted personality as me so I considered him my brother when I first heard about him, and I was convinced by my homeboy to listen to X by one of my homeboys back in highschool. I don't regret it at all. He was the whole reason I wanted to dye my locs half blonde and black back in 2016-2017. Mann I miss that guy so much. He was so different. Before X, I had NEVER seen any nigga with half blonde and half black. When I redye my locs back to that color, It'll be for a purpose this time. My blonde side represents my more mello/calmed down side and my black dark side will be represent my angrier, darker version of me before in the past locked away at the bottom of my soul. I always loved the fact that juice was a freestyle legend and could go in the booth, not write a SINGLE word and shit out hits. Keep up the good work man 🔥

Juice is definitely a legend bro went on a international tour with deathraceforlove and it was his only second album. Think about this way juice blew up in 2018 with GBANDGR went on a tour with that album. dropped deathraceforlove in 2019 the whole album was freestyled went on a international tour. To me that’s the most impressive thing I seen in music history. Jarad got crazy impact in a short amount of time so goes for jahseh.

Juice's unreleased discography is crazy beyond any artist. He was so versatile and wasn't only an emo-rap artist. Juice has rock songs, psychedelic rock, hip-hop, and pop (also cowboy/country Juice). He definitely would've been dominating the rap game nowadays if he ever got to truly show his potential with his unreleased tracks.

Juice made over 3,000 songs in a career of just over 2 years. It's crazy

Juice WRLD is an artist who probably wouldve been a legend if he got the chance to grow more. He was well known for his emo rap but as we've seen with his discography (including unreleased) he was able to switch his style while still being him. That is what makes him a legend in peoples eyes. The fact that Juice WRLD is Juice WRLD no matter what type of music he makes

i really love peep, he might not be a legend for everybody but he undoubtedly a legend for those who truly appreciate and resonate with his art and im one of them

Peep, Juice, & X all legends in my eyes. They all operated in a similar lane because they displayed a high level of versatility with their music being pretty genre blending. Drawing inspiration, from emo, pop punk, sometimes grunge and hardcore. They all impacted music & people in their own way, wish they all had more time to see what kind of music they'd be making now. Great video!! 🔥

Lil peep had hundreds of millions of combined views before his death, n it didn’t take many songs to make that figure. He created his own genre n had many ppl tryna imitate his sound n had a lasting impact on the industry. With no Peep there is no Juice Wrld and we all know how talented Juice WRLD was.

This video full of straight facts. I think X was gonna be one of the biggest in hiphop. I think Juice is a legend to. Very talented

juice got way more than just emo just most of it is unreleased, also knight crawler with trippie redd is very new sounding juice was a legend

Juice wrld has so many different songs that he could be in so many genres

Juice has so many different type of genres you have to listen to his unreleased he has hype music and so many other genre's

I actually got goosebumps when you said 'who is a current legend' Much love to Jah

I still think juice is a legend cause he made so much music in only 2 years and could freestyle like crazy and x is a legend for me because he changed his ways and it made him a better person

Rip Peep, X and Juice, they saved my life multiple times at my lowest and they're doing this still. Idk what people thing, for me they'll forever be my heroes, my life would be so fucking depressing without them and even i have so many problems in my life and i don't feel happy at all, their music puts a smile on my face. It's a shame that these artists died too soon, because they DESERVED the world. But the most satisfying thing is that their legacy will never die and will forever live on saving many others from now on. There'll forever be an another Juice, X, Peep fan, and even if an artist is dead doesn't mean that "you're a fake one who wants only to ride the wave" as someone say, i relate with their music so much and i feel peaceful. I'd like had the opportunity to see them on a show but saddly this is life. Rip to them, they're my legends, i'll see them in heaven🕊️🐐🙏🏻

You have no idea of the potential Lil Peep was showing in his final year of music, He would of been a legitimate popstar within 2-3 years tops. He had an uncanny ability for wirrting catchy melodic music. Personally in my eyes he is already a legend.

Peep in my opinion had a huge impact on the industry too. I dont listen to him too much anymore, but he helped with a lotta shii i had goin on in my life fr. For me it was like that one homie that could talk to you for days non-stop. When i listen to X at the same time i didnt got that feeling of having someone beside me chillin. But just my opinion, he said himself that he is doing music for people to feel less alone than theyre.

Nahhh Bro it's always the X fans disrespecting Juice 😭 Comparing Juice to Iann Dior is crazy tbh, if u listen to Juice WRLD's unreleased you'd see he is more than emo rap 😭 (both X and Juice legends for sure! LLJ & LLJW 🙏)

I remember hearing ‘Vice City’ for the first time smoking in the back of an old honda-crv. Man, I miss X. He really is a legend. Props to everyone else, however I too had a special connection to X’s music.

This is probably one of the most well put together videos I’ve ever seen. Subscribed.

all that peep needed was to escape his label and management, which is truely believe he would’v if he had time. His last album he was working on with ilovemackonen, shows that he wasn’t just sticking to sad emo music. he wanted to be more than that but sadly that’s not where the money was at the time.

X juice and peep shaped a genre of rap after their passings . The status they had and following was genuinely legendary, some shit that’s rare nowadays especially what they did in a small time , what makes them a legend is their impact after they died .

nah peep really was much more than jus drug hype music. he literally created his own genre and practically created juice wrld.

Juice is definitely more than a maybe, he is a legend, he is the most versatile on this list, he freestyles on and any type of beat, he could have adapted to almost any new wave that trends if he was still around

I would say juice is a legend for having a impact on a generation all the kids who heard his music will remember all the lyrics to lucid dreams until they grow old and senile. I think because he could just freestyle a whole song he would’ve had longevity because there would be no writers block bro really just rapped how he felt in every moment along with his freestyling he was one of the biggest rappers with probably infinite resources. What im saying is if they needed a different writing style he could have co writters on a song to make improvements or a pre written song that juice could make adjustments to. And he showed he could make mega hit pop songs like with marshemello “ come and go” and juice has unreleased songs with the chain smokers

If the whole world had access to juice’s unreleased library, they would see he has a song is pretty much every genre and still made it sound good, music is a very opinionated topic so theres not really a right or wrong answer for if his music was “good” but nobody can deny the talent he had for it

You gave me chills when you said while they're still here, instead of when they're gone and you showed Uzi 😔

when Mac Miller died a piece of me died. literally felt like I lost a best friend that I never met. still get wicked sad about his death

juice fans know that he wouldnt be makin music w mgk he was moving on from sad to hype music the album he was gonna drop called "outsiders" wud be full of hype stuff juice is one of the greatest freestylers so yea he is a legend

Mad Respect to you for this video. The art is amazing, editing was fire as well. And ur comments on the musicians mentioned were very thoughtful, so well done.

Bro i get it about peep but being fr he was gonna be a legendeverything from his voice and his lyrics. peep actually impacted the youth and saved lives. i think his lyrics wouldve been what separated him from others i mean "i wanna take my life just to give it to you" thats beautiful, and the youth wouldnt forget him meaning he wouldnt fall off and have a strong fan base. i think his music genuinely woulda changed the world man

I think both juice and peep were on the path to greatness, but X was for sure a legend, he had a impact on a whole generation and only did it within a 2 year span. He in my opinion is one of the GOATS, and he was still changing and becoming even better as an artist.

Allow me as an actual vet. Peep is considered a legend by popular belief he invented emo rap. X is a legend due to his charitable causes and self improvement. He did want to make the world a better place.

Saying Juice WRLD is similar to Ian Dior is crazy

This video was really well put together great job dude

lil peep imo is a legend due to his creativity and the way he was able to blend genres effortlessly, his style, his personality and everything about him was so unique to me, if he got more time to improve he would have been a certified legend to more people.

That’s why I’m gonna try not to die but who knows hate hurts people especially kids🙏🏽😢

Good work young man. Frankly I don’t know any of these artists, but I did like your analysis. Again, good work!

good vid bro i cant believe u got only 3k subs, keep grinding and you'll get what you really deserves

Hey man, wanted to add my take. Imo emo rap wouldn't have died as you claimed it would. Although much hated, MGK is still relevant with his punk rock which means that there is still a large audience for this type of music. It wouldn't have stayed the same yes but it had the potential of evolving into something which would be leaning more into the pop side. If peep had so many people hooked even before his passing you cannot underestimate the potential of the genre he created. Imagine it this way, if Carti had died when he was just popping off we would never have gotten rage music and people would have said that Carti's death doesn't matter as his baby voice music only had a small shelf life and couldn't have survived for long. That is a bold assumption to make.

such a great video.. I’ve been waiting on someone to speak on this topic.

so glad I found your channel!

damn bro u are talented as HELL! This video was really good, really enjoyable.

Honestly I was in peeps last concert on El Paso Texas, and I could really feel the potential of his music and his way of connecting with the feelings of people. He was something else. Not just drug hype

For me lil peep was a legend. Rest in peace lil peep

If juice was alive he would be undoubtable a legend by the end of his career as he could experiment with many different genres and he would be able to pull most if not all off

JIVO really came up was here when he had 2k on instagram real proud of you vro

I think Pop Smoke, Juice and xxx would’ve been huge. Pop Smoke had that voice, he was super charismatic and charming and there’s nobody like him. Juice Wrld had an insane amount of versatility that kinda still blows me away til this day. & with X even if you weren’t familiar with all his music at the time, we all saw his following and influence I don’t think that would’ve went away.

I think they're all legends in their own way

Also i love ur art for your videos.

Literally 10 mins ago i found this channel and now im watcjing all of these vids

Nah peep created a huge wave and have a huge impact on the scene his death made him legendary he just wasn’t here long enough

More video essays to come

The JuiceWrld disrespect is crazy, saying he would turn out like Ian Dior or even MGK is so far from the truth, he is the definition of evolution in music, pushing the emo rap era, then evolving with it into the many sub genres, and branching out to hardcore and traditional as well. Please just listen to some unreleased and you will see that his death actually ruined his legacy, and he would have been so much more successful with way more attention on his current music if he were still alive.

I think we can safely consider Juice a legend. Lot of the time I hear kids and teens talk about him saying that he "saved them" and shit, which I can't speak on their behalf, but if they're being genuine thats one hell of an influence

i mean, idk if you know much about leaks or even listen to them, but it’s so easy to see Juice would have adapted as years passed. juice fans keep track of leaks n stuff by era, and the time from Gb&Gr era (music made before Gb&Gr release) to JW3 era (everything after DRFL till his death) he had developed his sound into so much more and was branching into rock and heavy metal, even starting to dive into what sounded like an early version of rage. it’s honestly harder to find a sad/emo rap song in juice’s most recent work before his death, and even then he developed the emo rap sound further than i’ve heard anyone like Iann Dior or even Trippie take it.

this is a great video fr🔥

Juice Wrld was and still is the greatest example of timeless music. It doesn’t matter where you are, or how you are feeling in that moment and time, Juice has a song that you can find relatable. To my knowledge he is the only artist who has been able to achieve this.

U said "I dont think so" to the question if juice would've been able to adapt to the chances in music. I have to dissagree: Juice made songs everyday, which means that he practiced every day and if you do something consistently you automatically improve. He also did an insane amount of collabs in a timespan of two years as someone who was only 19-20 years old, artist from all types of different genres and he was always able to adapt and fit the style of the artist he was collaborating with, whilst still being himself, while the listener still recognises juice WRLD. I found this video super interesting, ur style is super unique and the art is amazing, ur videos feel satisfying to watch, you feel that a lot of effort has been put in to them! I expected you to have a few million followers, but you have 37K (which is also super inpressive dont get me wrong, but u get what im saying) Youve got a lot of potential, keep going man, hope ur having a good day!

Juice was good at many different genres instead of just emo rap, the only reason why you probably think he wouldn't have done better if he was alive is because the label doesn't release the songs where its fun and hype to listen to. The label only releases sad songs and makes juice look like only an emo rap sad boy. If you look into his unreleased it's a whole different story. (he has over 3000 unreleased songs)

I don't know about you but every time I listen to a dead artist I just feel like he is next to me, like he just is singing his ideas, this is why I fucking music

What's up Jivo been a while man glad to see you doing youtube again, we should catch up sometime

cool vid man, i like the format, keeps you engaged the whole time - dude from omegle

peep was the best out of the 3 ngl

Great video man, honestly IMO juice did break out off the emo rap sphere around 2019, though as is obvious now he never really got as much recognition for that flip on genres. If you take one good look at his unreleased music you'll see lots of pop, rock, trap, and several other genres he had grown up on or liked as a kid, plus a few extras. Juice was a really talented and great person, consumed by what got him out there in the first place that never really reached his full potential in the public eye.

Peep a legend bc of his genre bending music. He was so raw and put so much emotion into his music. He changed the music industry. If he had more time he would of grown out of the drug stuff. His talent was limitless

i love you Jivo

I think one of the best ways to determine an artists greatness is to listen to what other artists say about them. Everyone loved Juice and was shocked at his sheer talent, before and after his passing. The top artist paid their respects and complimented his talent. I feel like Juice’s legacy speaks for itself yet so many hate on him for some reason.

Great video! Juice wrld was heavily influenced by countless genres and was definitely starting to evolve, i think a big reason hes seen as just an emo rapper is because of the music his label released after his death, i think juice wrld had the talent, potential, and efficiency of being the next drake and definitely biggest out of all featured in this video

So glad you included sad frosty in here he is a legend! LLSF 💛💙

your a living legend jivo 💖

You nailed X but severely showed your lack of knowledge about Peep and Juice, do more research on them and listen to more songs, Juice had crazy versatility and the emo style of rap was just one of the many ways he presented himself as an artist, as for Peep he was only blown up by his death because he was on the come up into the mainstream before he died, he would have been crazy popular if his addiction didn't get to him first.

Peep creates his own slang the way yeat does (ie white wine, ghost girl) and has good genetics for intelligence (parents went to harvard) and a very versatile voice at a very young age. No doubt he was levels above in a genre that he created. Notice how nobody really replicated peep or was able to draw influence from him and get anywhere close. You also have to kinda be 16-24 and at that place in life to really enjoy it to its full potential. When you get older it's harder to relate to it as much.

how did you learn how to animate

What’s the peep song played when the screenshots on the comments if lil peep being a legend

You just earned a new subscriber

Don't know if it was intentional, but sampling 'It's a Cruel Cruel World - Sewerperson prod. Eric Godlow' at @01:00 is very nice. Don't feel like enough listen to him and he has great versatility imo :))

4:47 pls what song is this

The reason I say Juice was a legend was because I wouldn’t even be listening to his music rn if it wasn’t for his versatility. But only his fans know his versatility. Plus imo he’s the reason why calling artists “legends” is even popular

Yo amzing video. IMO the only two rappers/artists of this generation who can be called legends are x and juice the respect influenence and pressence that they had was unmatched by any in their field their creativity and abilty to creat music tht u feel was crazy. On the topic of time time is a very important factor when it comes to a legend 2pac and biggie wouldnt be legends if they came out today it sucks to say but its true they are a product of their time. We see this with eminem who i feel like if he died his legend status would have been solidied even more in the music industry but with him we never got tht what if thts needed for a "Legend". I feel to be a legend you have to die early and its sad i feel you need to leave people asking the question "What if..." you have to leave room for people to imagine and in a way thts what makes ppl like x biggie juice and 2pac so special they were here for such a short time and did so much for music tht they are seen as untouchable. ive got a video droppin soon on modern music and if its trash or more so spescifically a video in defence of modern rap. I really enjoy content like this and you do it well. Keep making more ill be here to support. W vid.

imma be honest, when i heard x had died i basically went insane and wanted to learn about him more. at this point im dissapointed in myself for knowing so freaking much but now that i know basically everything about him, hes definitely a legend in my opinion.

Being a legend is all subjective, here are 8 minutes of my arbitrary rules for being a legend

Eyy i fuck w the video tho i can tell u put hella effort in it, keep doing this shit dawg ur going places

If you say X is a legend you have to accept that juice is just as much if not more of a legend

Juice WRLD did try out a few things tho, such as the same rage type rap X was doing, and also hype rap, fast rap, let's just put it like this emo or sad rap, was just when he was bored in the studio, he made a lot of it, but keep in mind that juice has over 1000 unreleased songs, reaching a lot of different genres, and yes he's top 10 most popular songs, and the songs which he started off on SoundCloud with, was of the punk/rap, emo rap genres, but true, imagine how good he would be today. R.I.P 999, and X too, they both loved interacting with fans, and one of the things that make these two artists (special) is the fact that u could actually tell they cared a lot about the fans and what they went thru. and also, the love they had for there craft, and music it self, which u can from a musical and artistic point of view to 100 % do nothing else than respect, RIP to both of em frr, love to there family's and everyone who was there for em, that goes to everyone, not just juice and X, die knowing u doing what u love, stay 💯

XXX and Juice pretty much are legends. Juice could have been bigger but his label has been fucking up since he passed. Juice btw has a bunch of happy songs but a lot of that shit is unreleased

People compare Juice to Iann Dior😭💔

you really don’t miss

look at juices unreleased songs. he had FAR more hype than sad and some of them are INSANE. he could do rock, hype, sad, r&b, acoustic, country, love, rage, anything. juice would 100% stay with whatever music is popular

Loved the video and we all consider different people to be legends. I don't think x and juice are legends though but we all have opinions

few good good points, few misses. Juice was versatile asf so if you’re going to give X the impact and versatility diving into different genres you should quite literally do the same thing for juice. They are both legends and do say he would become a iann dior or make music with MGK is just outright disrespectful.

this video feels so professional

when bro talked about x doing rage and HYPERPOP, a tear rolled out

I appreciate you very much and I actually agree with most of what you said and I def agree with the title of your video.

Sketchy and peeps deaths hit really hard for me, i think its because of how i related and how many friends ive lost to an overdose. Sketchy was an amazing producer but he sadly overdosed on opioids and benzos at barley 18. Its jarring going from an older song like spent a check to the shit he made shortly before his death like misunderstood, afraid and kick the cup

Good points brother.. respect!

damn the underground made so many legends but we lost a lot of them too, Peep hit me the hardest back then cuz I used to listen to him heavy he wouldve been crazy big these days

Juice wanted to branch out of emo rap there was a clip where he said it himself that he wanted to stop the sad rap

Yeah hearing “legend” being tossed around to people who clearly don’t deserve it (Julien Edleman) is so true. X being a legend I 100% agree with. Everyone loved him for who he was despite his domestic violence allegation. Juice WRLD being a “maybe” is kind of an understatement in my eyes because I love juice WRLD even though I heavily overplayed his music multiple times. Since then I swerved into country music & I enjoyed them more than rap since rap nowadays has been really dry. If Juice WRLD’s “The Party Never Ends” album drops someday & becomes a big hit, would he be a legend or “GOAT” status artist in your eyes?

Juice is definitely more diverse than the sad boy music he had made non sad boy music nd it has slapped like syphilis, semi-addict, nuketown, nd more tht I can't think of rn
