Young Dolph reveals Juice Wrld was his blood cousin.
Family members are usually hit the hardest when someone passes away. Juice WRLD’s death has affected millions of people all over the world. However, it hit very close to home for fellow rapper and cousin Adolph Thornton, Jr., who is otherwise known as Young Dolph. The two rappers did not disclose their relations to the public. According to Dolph, the two did not even know they were related until 2017 when his uncle told him at a Thanksgiving dinner.
Much like Juice, Young Dolph was born in Chicago, Ilinois however, Young moved to Memphis with his family when he was 2 years old. The rapper shared an empathic post on his Instagram page, commenting on all the lost times he didn’t get to share with his little cousin. He also mentioned some of the rides he has in his garage and how he wanted to share the experience of riding in them with Juice and his grandma. The rapper was clearly not interested in making music and just wanted to spend some quality time.
