“$uicideboy$ have gone from cult champions to industry renegades, surpassing expectation and defying limitations as one of the music’s most undeniable success stories. $uicideboy$ not just rap stars, but a cultural phenomenon.”- KNOTFEST
New Orleans rap duo $uicideboy$ announce that their highly-successful Grey Day Tour will be coming to Europe to play 15 dates across 9 countries in 2023. G59 Records artists Germ, Shakewell, Chetta and US Grey Day Tour opener Ski Mask The Slump God will be on the line-up as support acts.
$uicideboy$ are having a stellar 2022 as the 27th most-streamed artist of the year across all genres with 1.9 Billion Total streams (as of October 18), according to HITS MAGAZINE, beating other rappers on the list including Jack Harlow, Tyler the Creator and Travis Scott. Additionally, their 2022 single “Matte Black” is at the top spot of Spotify’s US Top Group’s of 2022 playlist, a collection of the most-streamed artists on the platform this year.
The tour announcement comes alongside a final release of their three-part collaborative EP with Germ DIRTIESTNASTIEST$UICIDE, a 7-song collection of all new music produced entirely by $uicideboy$ member $crim, available on December 16. EP lead single “My Swisher Sweet, But My Sig Sauer” already combined for 5 Million cumulative streams since its debut on December 2.
$uicideboy$ dig light out of the deepest corners of darkness, addiction, hopelessness, and pain. The New Orleans-bred duo of cousins—Scott Arcenaux, Jr. a.k.a. $crim and Aristos Petrou a.k.a. Ruby da Cherry—translate a fight against demons (seen and unseen) into a clever, caustic, and corrosively catchy apocalyptic vision of underground hip-hop pierced with punk intensity and laced with laidback Southern flows. The world first met $uicideboy$ in 2014. After dozens of projects and hundreds of sold-out shows, they’ve generated billions of streams and earned multiple RIAA certifications, including the platinum “…And To Those I Love, Thanks For Sticking Around” and gold “Carrollton,” “2nd Hand,” “Runnin’ Thru The 7th With My Woadies,” “Paris,” and “Kill Yourself (Part III).” They also emerged as the rare force of nature equally suited to collaborate with Travis Barker and Juicy J or members of Korn.
MVM Dome
MVM Dome is the seventh largest indoor event venue in Europe. Its capacity for sports events and concerts is significantly higher than that of the Budapest Sports Arena. It has 20,022 seats; a total of 50,000 square metres of floor space; innovative, rearrangeable spaces for many indoor sports (handball, basketball and volleyball, futsal, ice hockey, tennis, skating) as well as certain athletic, equestrian and motorcycle competitions, and even swimming competitions and water polo matches in the mobile pool. Through the six entrances to the building, spectators can enter the arena’s interior using eight escalators, leading to the walk-through grandstands accessible on three levels. The structure of the building’s exterior is reminiscent of muscle fibres: the light strips placed on the outward-leaning, elliptical sections not only embrace the building, but the light shows, programmed using various colours, appear to set the entire building in motion. There is a 600 square metre display on the façade of the building. The Main Entrance leads to an impressive foyer, where visitors will be greeted by a grandiose hanging light installation of 848 handmade glass tubes. The programmable sports lighting is also suitable for HDTV broadcasts of the highest-level world competitions, as well as for super-slow-motion recordings due to flicker free technology. The lighting system also plays an important role in the events and concerts, as it is suitable for changing the colour temperature of the auditorium, which means that the lighting functions can be changed without rearranging the arena, only through the pre-programmed lighting controls. This design is the first and is unique in Europe for luminaires of this power. A central display (cube) provides information in the auditorium during the events.
