We choose life or death. No third option exists. $uicideboy$ rap like their lives depend on it, because they actually do. Hip-hop lifted the New Orleans duo of cousins-Scott Arcenaux, Jr. a.k.a. $lick Sloth and Aristos Petrou a.k.a. Ruby da Cherry-out of a violent drug-riddled hood nightmare and into an underground phenomenon. On the way up, they landed a Top 10 debut on the Billboard Top 200, tallied 2 billion-plus streams, averaged 4.2 million monthly listeners on Spotify, sold out arenas on three continents, and received acclaim from Pigeons and Planes, XXL, Billboard, and Revolver. Not to mention, they collaborated with everyone from Academy? Award winner Juicy J to members of Korn. These accolades cemented the pair as the culture's most insurgent, inescapable, and influential cult by 2020. Locked and loaded, their second album, STOP STARING AT THE SHADOWS [G*59/Caroline], reasserted their power once again. The boys first recognized this power in 2013. As legend has it, $lick and Ruby found themselves fed up with the world around them, yet curiously inspired by Slipknot, Minor Threat, Misfits, Andr? 3000, Three 6 Mafia, Lil Wayne, and Kanye West. Drawing on $lick' talents as a guitarist, drummer, violinist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, the two-piece cut up genre lines and blew them into dust, delivering a dystopic diorama of rap through a prism of punk energy, heavy metal nihilism, and alternative vulnerability.
