$uicideboy$ is an American hip hop duo from New Orleans, Louisiana, formed in the mid-2010s. The group consists of two cousins who became known for a lo-fi, underground sound that blends elements of trap, punk, and cloud rap, often built on heavy, grim production and gritty, distorted beats. Their music is characterized by dark, confessional lyrics that address themes such as depression, substance use, nihilism, and mortality, delivered in a raw, emotionally direct style. They rose to prominence through self-released projects and extensive use of online platforms, cultivating a devoted fanbase and influencing the contemporary underground hip hop and SoundCloud rap scenes.
