BBC Radio 1Xtra - Legends Fall in the Making, Ep 7 'Police on My Ass, Buckle Up'

Like many artists in this scene, Juice WRLD is open about his drug use and he raps about it freely in his music. But some of those around him are worried about him and his girlfriend encourages him to get clean. Juice pushes himself harder and harder as he works to perfect his performances and his production, he's touring with international stars and is going mainstream. Meanwhile Pop Smoke is quickly turning into New York's hottest new rapper. But he's coming under scrutiny from law enforcement as he struggles to shake off the reputation he has with the police. Juice WRLD too is getting attention from law enforcement and something terrible is about to happen as he flies by private jet back to his hometown of Chicago.

EPISODE 7 TITLE ‘POLICE ON MY ARSE, BUCKLE UP’ IS BASED ON LYRICS FROM THE TRACK SYPHILIS BY JUICE WRLD
