the way (feat. Juice Wrld)

À propos

“The Way” is the upcoming first collaboration between XXXTENTACION and Juice WRLD. Juice had stated that he planned to meet X before he passed away in June 2018, and they were already talking about collaborating. X’s estate gave Juice the opportunity to be on a couple of X’s songs, which (as we know of) include this one and a remix of “whoa (mind in awe).” On January 28, 2018, X shared a video of him singing the song on social media, likely before the original version had even been professionally recorded. His contributions were inspired by the then-popular Ugandan Knuckles meme and its associated phrase: Do you know de wey? A demo version of the song leaked online on April 20, 2022, featuring vocals from Juice’s unreleased song known to fans as “Traveling” or “Inner Peace”. This version has better mixing and some lyrics from Juice are removed.
