The mother of deceased rapper Juice WRLD, who collapsed and reportedly suffered a seizure Chicago’s Midway Airport last week, issued a statement following her famous son’s death.

“We loved Jarad with all of our hearts and cannot believe our time with him has been cut short,” mother Camella Wallace told TMZ, referring to her son by his real name, Jarad Higgins. “As he often addressed in his music and to his fans, Jarad battled with prescription drug dependency. Addiction knows no boundaries and its impact goes way beyond the person fighting it. Jarad was a son, brother, grandson, friend and so much more to so many people who wanted more than anything to see him defeat addiction.”
