$uicideboy$ have also dropped a new track, Meet Mr. NICEGUY, the second single to be taken from their forthcoming album I Want To Die In New Orleans, out September 7th via G*59/Caroline Australia.

Having toured Australia just last year, cousins Ruby da Cherry and $lick $loth, aka $UICIDEBOY$, are a dark blend of horrorcore glitch-trap beats, booming basslines and occultish, drugged-out rhymes, making waves around the world with their truly unique mix of synth-laden beats and misanthropic, dark verses.

Growing up together, Ruby and $lick shared very different tastes in music; Ruby taking lessons from Minor Threat, Leftover Crack and The Misfits, while $lick (aka Suicide Christ) pursued the art of turntablism, while honing his skills as a songwriter. Worlds collided as the New Orleans rap duo joined their creative forces in 2014 to form the juggernaut that is $UICIDEBOY$.

$UICIDEBOY$ then set about claiming the crown of ‘hardest working two-piece in the game’. Hard work and talent saw them swiftly noticed by G59 Records who signed them to get to work releasing the ambitious 2016 ten-part album series, Kill Your$elf, to the praise of the hip-hop underworld. Back from the road with SXSW and a slew of international shows under their belt, the boys aren’t messing around, recording close to 30 EP’s and albums in only two years. Their 29th release, Radical $uicide arrived in July 2016 and quickly gained attention peaking at #17 on the Billboard Rap Charts.

Don’t miss your chance to catch the future of hip-hop and trap music live this January. Tickets are on sale now—see dates and ticketing information below. $uicideBoy$ last toured Australia for Origin NYE in 2017. They had previously toured in May 2017, selling out Manning Bar in Sydney and Max Watts in Melbourne.
