Lil Bibby Denies Selling Juice WRLD's Catalog

Lil Bibby and Juice WRLD fans have a strange relationship. Juice signed to the fellow Chicago native's label Grade A Productions back in 2017. Under that contract, Juice put out two studio albums before his tragic death in December 2019. Since then, two posthumous Juice records have been released. These include Legends Never Die and Fighting Demons. Additionally, a third one reportedly titled The Party Never Ends should arrive soon.

Lil Bibby Hasn't Sold

Among all this dysfunction, reports from Billboard on Feb. 3 claimed that Bibby, Grade A and Juice's estate had sold most of Juice's publishing rights to Opus Music Group. They represent reggateon artists like Maluma and Rauw Alejandro. However, on Feb. 6, Bibby took to Twitter to deny these claims. He tweeted: "We sold nothing…" Bibby has not elaborated on this, which makes it hard to believe that Billboard's reports would be inaccurate. A spokesperson for Opus gave a statement to Billboard at the time the story broke that emphasized how impactful the deal is. "To represent the body of work of Juice Wrld – whose cultural significance and generational influence can’t be overstated – is an honor and a responsibility," they said.

One day after the Billboard report, Bibby posted on Instagram that "the last Juice WRLD album is in the works," which could certainly validate Bibby's claims that he is still in control of Juice's music. The Party Never Ends will be the first full-length Juice WRLD release since December 2021. It will likely serve as the final official release for the slain rapper. Surely more clarity from Bibby will come regarding who owns his publishing rights. Stay tuned to HNHH for more updates on this developing story.
