Background and composition

edit

On October 14, 2022, Marshmello spoke about the song and its creation in a press release:

I made this song the first night that I met Juice. I was already such a big fan of his and being able to work with him and make music with him was an absolute honor. With this song, I intended to keep it exactly the way we made it that night. I hope everybody enjoys.[1]

Over melodic bass-heavy production and "a droning synth",[3] Juice Wrld sings about heartbreak, getting cheated on and moving on from the relationship.[2][4] The song was recorded and first teased by Juice via Instagram in February 2019, around 10 months before his death in December that year.[2][5]

Music video

edit

The official music video for "Bye Bye", directed by Stripmall, was released on Marshmello's YouTube channel on October 14, 2022.[6] It starts with a teenaged boy dropping a quarter in a machine in an abandoned arcade and making it come to life along with an animated Juice Wrld, as he then starts transporting through time and space.[7]
