I got to meet Juice a few months back, very nice guy.
+iTonyC i was there too
Your pfp is fornite
Lying hard af
people stop feeding J MO hes gotta be the worst troll in the world yet it baiting everyone here so hard lmao
Angel De La Torre 😂😂😂
Dafuq is this
Paying Homage is very important.
Sting is a Legend😃
Kleit mac. He didn’t steal anything. Juice used something called interpolation. Sampling which is another common way of using someone else’s music, is basically using someone’s master audio and using it. What juice wrld did is interpolation. Meaning he recreated that melody and used it. There is kinda a gray area so technically juice is in the wrong yet he is still not exactly in the wrong. Kanye used interpolation a lot. Juice should’ve tried to make something work with sting tho. So lesson learned 🤙🏻
Paying royalties is even better🤔
Riott Mel that’s what I was thinking lmaoo
85% seems excessive though, like yeah that melody is a huge part of the song, but it’s really not the whole song, maybe like 45% would be a fairer cut, it’s Juice’s and his producer’s song
Dominic Miller specifically
“I still see Stings shadows in my room.”
😂😂😂😂
Shout out to *sting* 💀
Sting went to my church
+youngb925bthizz I thought so too.
Honestly what did that guy mean when he said royalty will be paying his grandchildren there collage tuition.
For taking 85 % of lucid dreams
Project Crimson Hound Alpha because the beat in juice wrld song was originallly from sting, and it’s protected under licensing, so any profits made from the song juice wrld made, sting claims or gets 85 % of all the money that was made on that song & so its gonna pay for his grandkids bc its a lot of money
Why does it seem like he’s on crack?
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL
ManBearPig YT he’s in an airport, he’s in a hurry. I look like that in an airport. Stfu.
+DGッ thanks
He probably off some pills that keep him awake i think
+Eskii NZL No da fuk he didnt
Okay but what does Wrestler Sting think?
Lol I thought that tooo
+sREUDIAN fLIP oh man I am so glad you said that I was hoping at least someone in this comment section knew who the legend was 😂 I personally like So Lonely by them xD
+Kodie Reid-Mclean so much for that, i’m glad you came by, i was starting to feel out of place with this youngins 😂😂😂 they’re still talking about Sting the wrestler though. I don’t blame them both Stings are legendary 👍👏
ASKING THE REAL QUESTIONS
Fr😂😂😂
It look like he in a rush to the toilet
The World Reacts Omg. period.
He is moving kinda fast.. Slow down Juice
Acid yes u did

dumbest comment i’ve read in awhile
He late to that next line of coke ifwi juice tho
+R y x n True
he said my teachers could suck my left and right nut lol
Funny a month later he loses 85 percent of that
Laka Films not just one, the left AND right but 😂
That’s so motivational
Not his math teacher 😂🤣 85% is s hefty amount
Kid is blasted on pills look at him lmaoooo
Manhattan Raised more like coke
Definitely lol
Nah he was bouta be late to a flight fam pipe down
I mean have you listened to any of his music? 90% of it is about his pill addiction
I went to school with Juice and all he did was skip classes and sleep lmao
Pizzahutgoodies and die faster
Dirty Dan Lit Sounds about right.
Skipping classes, sleeping during classes, thieving people’s songs… maybe he and his producer should’ve paid attention in class.
JK532
prove it
Lol why Juice wrld walking like he late to church an he cant find the sanctuary
+Johanna Aviles bruh, he quit drugs a long time ago
Cuz sting just took 85% of his money made from lucid dreams
Lmfao
Cocaine
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😭😭😭
I Won’t Even Lie My Man Out Here Looking Like A Freshman Who Lost His Way To Class Or Something
+Voltage forgot the question mark tho bro
+Alexander Ryan hey u too jek out my janel bah
Its Voltage, you need a space after the comma!
+Alexander Ryan niggas like you Honestly need to not exist.
He’s 5 seconds away from asking a staff for directions lmaoo
Then takes 85% 😂
An now he taking 85% of yo moneys
He took 100%
Sting is taking 85% because the song is 85% his. Juice gets his 15% because he only put in 15% in so that’s how the business world is. Puffy stole a Sting song and Sting took 100% of it. Just to give u an idea of what Sting does, Sting gets $2000 a day every day for the song Every Breathe You Take. It’s the most played song in the world and the song is from the 80’s. He doesn’t need Juice’s money, it’s about copy right infringement. U steal, u pay.
Ben Vasilinda ah thanks for clearing that up, i shouldn’t believe everything I see on the internet, thanks friend
Dylan DeFrates yea man royalties are where the money is. The Beatles learned that the hard way. Also when multiple artist write a song together, the placement of the names listed on the song is also important. The first name is the majority money maker. Paul McCartney was in a legal battle with Yuko Ono over the Beatles royalties because songs he wrote majority of but because John Lennon always put his name first means he got 51% royalties of those songs. He lost that legal battle and she will always get majority of the royalties for a song her husband never wrote. This also happened to most of those boy bands back in the 90’s and 2000’s. The managers got almost all of the money and the promoters also got a good chunk of the money as well while those kids got very little of the money and none of the royalties. This is the very reason artists fight so hard for royalties. Prince’s family isn’t fighting over his money, they are locked up in court over his royalties.
+Ben Vasilinda its Amazing how many Music fans know Little To Nothing of how it really works. You can hear ” samples ” in every song put out for the last 25 years.
Lol sting gave him thumbs up for lucid dreams then take 85% of the funds from lucid dreams
+O Dogg it’s called business, he didn’t ask Sting if he could use it. How would you feel if someone took something of yours and said I made this. Has nothing to do with ethnicity. People like you who are narrow minded only preach hate. Remember hate breeds hate, bruh.
Six6Six I guess I would feel like the NATIVES.
The song is 85% of Stings music so yea it’s fair. U can’t steal someone music and keep if for urself. Look up royalties and see how much money is involved. Sting gets $2000 every day since the 80’s for one song called Every Breathe You Take. It’s the st played song in the world on radio and commercials. That’s almost three quarters of a million dollars a year for one song done 30 years ago. He also gets another quarter million a year for that song because Puffy stole the song and used it for the Biggie tribute and Sting got 100% of that so now it’s a million dollar a year song. Would u let ur music and ur royalties get stolen?
+O Dogg What ethnicity are you?
Six6Six 85 is a lot, if he took 40 or 50 then yea that’s different, but he probably happy cuz his net worth probably doubled lmao
Gave him a thumbs up for his song cuz he taking 85% lol
LMAO
Sting could have taken 110%
+Miguel Lozano This. 85% is generous.
Who’s here after he decided to take the 85%??
forealll
PrinceK Official Sting likes it cuz my mans making bread from the song. Pieces by Tory Lanez, in my opinion used the sample well but it never got as popular for Sting to go after the revenue.
facts
I wonder what he thinks about sting now 😂
STING: good song
JuiceWRLD: Thanks man
STING: how much money did you make off it
JuiceWRLD: a lot
STING: Oh can I see it *takes money*
STING: CAN I HAVE MY MONEY BACK YOU STOLE. * FIXED IT FOR YOU.
