The Juice WRLD mural in the West Loop that became a shrine for the late Chicago rapper was mysteriously painted over last week.
No one has claimed responsibility for erasing the Juice WRLD mural and another mural that depicted the late Chicago DJ Frankie Knuckles.
Hoard had asked City Hall to help protect the famous mural with fences and security but said that didn't happen. A representative of the city's Department of Streets and Sanitation, which erases graffiti, said no one from that department painted over the murals. The last 311 graffiti-removal requests for that location came last May, and city crews usually respond in three to five days, according to the department.
The Juice WRLD mural was painted in 2020 by Connecticut artist Corey Pane, who also designed the cover of the performer's posthumously released album, "Legends Never Die," which came out around the time the mural was finished.died of what was ruled an accidental drug overdosePane said the mural of Juice WRLD had become a "landmark" in Chicago.
