2017 has been filled with a slew of emerging rap acts finding themselves on the national radar with one of the latest being $uicideboy$, a self-contained duo that have made their presence known with a steady stream of song releases and captivating visuals.

Hailing from New Orleans, the $uicideboy$, comprised of cousins $lick and Ruby Da Cherry, may come from the home of powerhouses like Cash Money and No Limit and credit their predecessors as early influences, however, make no mistake about, they have no interest in mimicking their city's musical forefathers and have a sound and style wholly unique of their own.

Coming together as a duo in 2013, the $uicideboy$ gradually grew traction, particularly on SoundCloud, with projects like Eternal Grey, Radical $uicide and Grey Sheep 1 & 2 all amassing millions of plays and creating a demand for their music. Over the summer, they touched road overseas on their Global Epidemic Tour and continued to build their brand as one of the premier acts in the SoundCloud rap scene. With their profile higher than ever, it only looks to reach higher heights with the release of their latest project, Kill Yourself XVI-XX series.

A total of five three-song EPs, they're void of collabos but do feature many of $lick and Ruby's alter egos. Kill Yourself XVI-XX will hold fans over until $uicideboy$ unveil their debut album, I Don't Want to Die in New Orleans, which is set to drop at the end of the year.
