Chicago sensation Juice Wrld made a big splash in 2018, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with his single "Lucid Dreams" and earning a gold plaque for his major label debut, Goodbye & Good Riddance. Add in his collaborative EP with Future Wrld on Drugs, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, and it's safe to say Juice Wrld enjoyed one of the more successful rookie campaigns in recent memory. Looking to take full advantage of the buzz surrounding his name, the prolific freestyle champ and hitmaker returns with his sophomore album, Death Race for Love, a project that showcases the rapper's diverse arsenal of lyrics, melodies and infectious songwriting. And there are hits, too; "Fast" seems to be the early standout that's likely to climb the charts.

Clocking in at 22 tracks, Death Race for Love is an expansive long-player that finds its host musing about his three favorite topics: love, drugs and running up bands. Juice Wrld does much of the heavy lifting on this project, but guests like Brent Faiyaz, Young Thug, and Clever chip in and lend their talents to the festivities. In terms of production, Juice Wrld hooks up with a stellar list of music's heavy hitters, including Hit-Boy, No I.D., Boi-1da, Cardo, Purps, Frank Dukes, Jahaan Sweet and Louis Bell.

After putting Juice Wrld's latest release in rotation and dissecting the album bar for bar, XXL picks out 20 of the best lyrics from Death Race for Love.

  • "Empty"

    Juice Wrld

    "Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa/Like a crawlspace, it's a dark place I roam/Ain't no right way, just the wrong way I know/I problem solve with Styrofoam/My world revolves around a black hole/The same black hole that's in place of my soul, uh/Empty, I feel so goddamn empty/I may go rogue, don't tempt me/Big bullet holes, tote semi-autos" —Juice Wrld

  • "Empty"

    "Exhale depression as the wind blows/These are the laws of living in vogue/We're perfectly imperfect children/Rose from the dust, all of us are on a mission/Never gave a fuck, really came from rags to riches/Now we live it up, driving with the rooftop missin'" —Juice Wrld

  • "Maze"

    "I'm not in my subconscious, I'm conscious/They tell me that they can help me, I got this/Watch this, I took my demons into the bank of life and I made the biggest deposit/Without drugs, I'm losing my logic/These pills and my Pro Tools still got logic" —Juice Wrld
