Juice WRLD is trapped in a bubble in the animated visual for the late rapper’s collab with The Weeknd, “Smile.” The KDC Visions-created clip for the posthumous single finds Juice wandering through fields of flowers and butterflies as he moons about doing anything he can to make his lover smile, even as the devil on his shoulder warns of imminent danger.
