Young men were extremely serious about a music career. They wanted to change their lives and formed a band called Suicideboys. The name of the band wasn’t random. Cousins swore to each other that in case they fail, they would both commit suicide. The artists shared this in one of the interviews to Mass Appeal magazine. Thankfully, the band became successful.
The debut EP of the band was Kill Yourself Part I: The $uicide $aga. It came out in the summer of 2014 on Bandcamp и SoundCloud. The album attracted the attention of hip-hop fans. They were also noticed by an underground rapper Bones. In the next months, the duo recorded several new parts of the Kill Yourself series.
After releasing a few joint EPs with their friend Black Smurf, cousins started working on their debut mixtape, Grey/Grey. It came out in the spring of 2015.
The band’s breakthrough in the world of underground music happened after the release of an EP, $outh $ide $uicide in 2015. To record the album, the artists invited the rapper Pouya from Florida. He helped the young duo achieve success with the underground.
In the summer of 2016, Suicideboys finally made it into popular charts after the release of their next EP, Radical $uicide, with the assistance of the label, G*59. Several songs were recorded with Getter from EDM. The EP reached the 17th spot of the Billboard Rap chart. At that time, many clubs wanted to book Suicideboys for private events.
In September 2018, the duo released an LP called Radical $uicide. The album came out with the assistance of G*59. After the release, the artists talked about how they recorded the album. They started working on it back in 2017. The musicians wanted all the songs to talk about their personal experience and about how their lives changed as the music entered them.
Today, Suicideboys are very popular hip-hop artists. In their lyrics, they focus on depression and suicidal thoughts, which is appealing to the teenagers. The duo’s most popular music video is Paris. It collected over 65 million views.
At the end of 2018, some music magazines started talking about Suicideboys’ disbanding. The reason for such rumors was a careless twit. Soon, the band contradicted the information. Twitter posts were related to some personal problems between the cousins, which didn’t reflect on their careers.
In the spring of 2019, rappers recorded a new EP, Live Fast, Die Whenever, together with the drummer from Blink—182, Travis Barker, and a guitar player from Korn, James Shaffer.
While working on the band’s albums, both brothers were busy with solo projects and collaborated with other artists. Scott recorded Narcotics Anonymous, #DrugFlow2, and Patron Saint of Everything Totally Fucked, using the pseudonym Scrim. Meanwhile, Ruby da Cherry worked with Oddy Nuff da Snow Leopard on the mixtapes The Jefe Tape and Pluto.
