Songfacts®:

  • Juice WRLD recorded "Rider" for his Death Race for Love album. The song was inspired by the Twisted Metal and Death Race vehicle combat video games that the rapper played growing up. It was the writing of this track that prompted the album's title.
  • Let's see if you a rider for real
    I really wanna see if you a rider for real
    Don't think just 'cause you grip the wheel
    Makes you a straight up rider for real


    Juice told Billboard: "I thought I'd just incorporate Twisted Metal and Death Race [into] hanging on to a relationship or doing what you have to do to maintain a relationship, or going through hell to fix something... to get somebody back."
