Eminem and Benny Blanco’s latest single ‘Lace It’, posthumously featuring the late Juice Wrld, addresses the epidemic of accidental death involving drug use that has skyrocketed around the world – which also led to Juice WRLD’s death in 2019.
Benny Blanco took to his official Instagram to share of the track: “people always say things like “this song means a lot to me” or “it changed my life”… when discussing a piece of music they’re listening to… “lace it” truly gives that a new meaning to me bc the day we recorded was also the last time i ever saw juice… everyday that moment gets further away… and id trade this or any other song we did to have him back… i didn’t think i would b crying while writing this but here we are… jared u r talent that will never be matched … ur laugh and spirit r infectious im gonna play this song so loud u can hear this in heaven tonight … we miss u tpne …. marshall i dont even know where to start… i remember exactly where i was the first time i saw the video for “my name is” it stopped me in tracks… i knew in that very moment that i had to make music and that i was gonna dedicate my entire life to it… u paved the way for people to b different and not feel weird about being an outcast… both me and juice wouldnt b who we are without u… thank u”
