"Us vs. Them" is a song by American hip hop duo Suicideboys, released on March 29, 2024, as the lead single from their fourth studio album New World Depression (2024). It is their first song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting and peaking at number 96.[1]

Composition and critical reception

[edit]

Tom Breihan of Stereogum described the song as "vintage $uicideboy$: creepy flickering beat, evil singsong nursery-rhyme hooks, lyrics about chewing fentanyl and snorting percocet. It's directly inspired by '90s underground rap, of both the backpack and the Southern mixtape varieties, and it's effective on both fronts."[2] Revolver called it an "eerie, lysergic cut".[3]
