On September 10, 2024, the estate of the late rapper Juice WRLD released a new two-pack entitled The Pre-Party, featuring the tracks "World Tour (Aquafina)" and "Lightyears." This release expands the artist's posthumous catalog, as both tracks are currently trending within the Top 20 of the Genius Top Songs chart.
Produced by DJ Relentt, "World Tour (Aquafina)" presents a woozy trap sound characterized by its explicit lyrics reflecting themes of drugs and violence. Juice WRLD’s lone verse becomes particularly intense as he juxtaposes his substance use with hostile imagery. The song's catchy chorus features lines such as:
"Fuck her hardcore, yeah (Uh) She my pornstar (A freak) Off the Percocets (Yeah) Took it too far-ar (Yeah)"
Similarly, "Lightyears," which includes a guest verse from Young Thug and was produced by Nick Mira, delivers a guitar-driven sound that almost hints at country influences. Thematically, Juice reflects on his inner turmoil while addressing trust issues in relationships. Notable lines include:
"Double cup with that red lean, I'ma sip classy Dior on my feet, I feel classy You say you love me, do you mean that?"
Young Thug's verse diverges somewhat, focusing on his wealth and success while dismissing unwanted attention from women. Both tracks were initially teased on social media several years ago and are Juice WRLD’s first new releases of 2024, following his feature on Ski Mask the Slump God’s song "Wake Up!" in June.
