Louisiana based rap duo $uicideBoy$ have created over 40 EP's and other projects since their formation in 2014. These include Kill Yourself Part III: The Budd Dwyer $aga (2014), $outh $ide $uicide (2015) featuring Pouya, Radical $uicide (2016) featuring Getter, and DIRTIERNASTIER$UICIDE featuring Germ (2017). Their newest project and first studio album I Want to Die in New Orleans is their best piece of music to date because the tracks on the album sound like they were produced better, each track (for the most part) leads into one another, and the lyrics represent different elements of horrorcore.

The $uicideBoy$ consist of Ruby da Cherry (Aristos Petrou) and $crim (Scott Arceneau Jr.) who are first cousins. At a young age, $crim started to sell drugs to support himself and eventually found himself addicted to drugs. Ruby worked at a pizza place and eventually out grew his work environment. Eventually, $crim started to make beats, produce music, and rap. Ruby followed this lead soon after. While they were both broke out of money, they made a vow that they would either make it in the rap industry or they would kill themselves; hence where their name stems from.

The duo created I Want to Die in New Orleans under the concept of making an album about their lives and what they experience on tour. From the first track on the album "King Tulip" which starts with $crim quoting someone about how they've changed music "so much", to the second track "Bring Out Your Dead" that features lyrics like "Told Zack, 'if we ever fell off in G-59 or F-T-P, lets just be terrorists, rub up on NBC'" this album shows how other people have perceived the group, and ironically what they would do if they hadn't made it.

Most of the tracks on the album also flow into each other, which adds to the album as a put together piece of art, rather than 14 random individual songs. These tracks are tied into each other by using various media broadcasts about events happening in Louisiana. For instance, track three "Nicotine Patches" ends with a news channel airing that a deadly drug has been taken off the streets of Louisiana. Soon afterwards the listener hears static and then the next song "10,000 Degrees" starts playing.

The lyrics in this album involve a lot of the horrorcore genre's themes and ideas. These themes include being happy, "Ask me if I'm happy stupid motherfucking question" in "122 Days", doing drugs to in order to alleviate stress "Double the cup just to cut the stress in half" in "Meet Mr. NICEGUY", and being in a violent environment "Palm trees drip with fucking fire, smoke and ash all in my eyes" in "WAR ALL THE TIME". By rapping about these ideas, the duo is able to contact the violent nature everyone has within them whether it be large or small. They also use these lyrics to shock the audience because the lyrics aren't something that a normal listener would typically hear on the radio or in mainstream rap.

My favorite tracks on this album were "Bring Out Your Dead", "Meet Mr. NICEGUY", and "Carrollton." This was because each track immediately hooked my interest due to their great beats, as well as their obscene lyrics. "Drugs got me fucked up, sluts got me drugged up, fuck. Slap my face against a pill to crush it up." Is featured in "Carrollton" and when $crim raps this line he refers to how he uses a government issued I.D in order to help him get high on drugs.

Overall I absolutely loved this album. The way each song flowed into each other, its disturbing imagery, and grimy attitude all add to a great piece of horrorcore rap. This album received an 8.5 out 10 and I would definitely purchase this album on vinyl.
