New Orleans duo $uicideboy$ have released their highly-anticipated fourth full-length album New World Depression. The duo’s raw, unfiltered lyrics on the 13-track release narrate the struggle for authenticity in a world that often feels cold and indifferent. An unapologetic exploration of life’s darker sides, resonating with those who’ve felt out of place or battled inner demons. The album aims to become their fourth consecutive full-length album to debut in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200.
The lead single from New World Depression, titled “Us Vs Them,” jumped into the Billboard Hot 100 during the week of April 30th. The song navigates themes of fame, self-destruction, and the relentless search for identity. It has already garnered over 40 million streams on Spotify. Stereogum describes, “It’s directly inspired by ’90s underground rap, of both the backpack and the Southern mixtape varieties, and it’s effective on both fronts. These guys can really rap.”
The album also includes “Are You Going to See the Rose in the Vase, or the Dust on the Table?”, which The Alternative described as “A contemplative, honestly raw track that captures the quintessential melody of contemporary hip-hop, with intimate and contemplative lyrics complementing an aptly complex beat.” Additionally, it features “The Thin Grey Line”, which KnotFest claimed, “Loaded with slick stanzas and clever wordplay referencing debauchery and decadence, the track is quintessential $uicideboy$ and a promising precursor of what the rest of the album offers.”
On August 7th, rap cousins Ruby da Cherry and $crim will embark on Grey Day 2024, an arena tour across North America with support from Denzel Curry, Pouya, Shakewell, HAARPER, and Ekkstacy.
