Made up of cousins Ruby da Cherry and $crim, New Orleans hip hop duo $uicideboy$ have been one of the biggest underground success stories of the last few years, rising from the online buzz of self-produced, independently released and incredibly subversive mixtapes to selling out giant shows nationwide, collaborating with stars like Travis Barker, and becoming one of the top-billed acts at major fests like Bonnaroo. Before coming together (and allegedly making a suicide pact for their success) to take their career in music seriously, $crim started out DJing and honing his production skills in hip hop, releasing a few early solo efforts along the way, while Ruby da Cherry cut his teeth in the punk scene, playing in bands around New Orleans and releasing some early music of his own. Both of their backgrounds would prove formative, as while $uicideboy$ are ostensibly a hip hop project, they inject their music with raw punk attitude and sensibility, making their exact genre hard to pin down.
Though they’ve formally released three studio albums, 2018’s I Want to Die in New Orleans, 2021’s Long Term Effects of Suffering, and 2022’s Sing Me a Lullaby, My Sweet Temptation, the duo’s output over the years, largely produced by $crim, has been staggering, boasting a 20-part EP series called Kill Yourself, and various other EPs (including a team-up with Blink-182’s Travis Barker and Korn’s James Shaffer) and mixtapes, the bulk of which dropped in just a four-year period, until returning last year with a new conceptual EP series called the Yin Yang Tapes. And while all of that has helped make them grow from a cult underground favorite to a bona fide success, the group’s thematic focus- often dealing with dark themes of violence, depression, satanism, sex, and suicidal ideation- has also frequently made them the subject of controversy. That raw, dark, and abrasive sound has also occasionally caused them to be lumped in with the recent emo rap scene, but from a production standpoint, they’re much closer to, say, Three 6 Mafia (or contemporaries like Germ or Ghostemane), than Juice WRLD.
In support of upcoming fourth album New World Depression, due out June 14, and nearly a year exactly since $uicideboy$ played their biggest local headliner yet at Bridgestone Arena, the group are primed to return to the venue once more on Aug. 7, once again as part of their Grey Day Tour, presented in conjunction with their own G59 Record$. Rounded out the bill are friends, collaborators, and cohorts who should all go over quite well with $uicideboy$ fans: punk-spirited rapper Denzel Curry, alt/emo Florida rapper Pouya, genre-bending west coast hip hop artist HAARPER, hardcore artist turned MC Shakewell, and indie, post-punk, and hip hop infused singer-songwriter EKKSTACY. Fans of dark, genre-bending, punk spirited and alternative hip hop stylings should consider this a must-see, and you can still get tickets right here! However, we’re excited to announce that we’re also giving away a pair of tickets to one lucky fan; enter and preview the lineup below.
