Suicideboys (stylized as $uicideboy$) is an American hip-hop duo from New Orleans, Louisiana. Suicideboys were founded in 2013 by cousins Scott "Scrim" Arceneaux Jr. and Aristos "Ruby da Cherry" Petrou. The duo initially rose to popularity on SoundCloud for their abrasive, self-produced beats and harsh lyrical content, as well as their music videos and themes prominently featuring substance abuse and suicidal ideation. They own and operate their own label, G*59 Records, under which all of their music is distributed by The Orchard.

The duo is considered one of the most popular acts in the underground rap scene. After several years of solely releasing EPs and mixtapes, Suicideboys' debut studio album I Want to Die in New Orleans was released on September 7, 2018. It fared well commercially, becoming their first top-ten album on the US Billboard 200. In May 2019, they released their collaborative six-track EP with Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker entitled Live Fast, Die Whenever, which also featured Korn guitarist James Shaffer.
