Tropes used in $uicideboy$ include:

• Driven to Suicide: In-Universe. In "$outh $ide $uicide", Yung Plague, aka Ruby, ends his verse by shooting himself in the head.
• Celebrity Song: "Vincent Van Gogh Ain't Got Shit on Me", "Joan of Arc" (with Night Lovell) and "Jon Voight (Live Fast, Die Young)".
• Creator Breakdown: The title of "I HUNG MYSELF FOR A PERSONA" parodies the trope.
• I Have Many Names: Both Scrim and Ruby da Cherry have many nicknames.
  • In "Everest", rapped by Ruby:

"Snow Leopard or Yung Plague
We both the same
It just depends on what I’m dealin' with"

• Pun-Based Title: "DIEMONDS".
• Sampling: "AUDUBON" samples a Gangland episode on a New Orleans crime scene.
• Suicide Pact: In their interview with No Jumper, the duo said that if their attempt at getting successful with music didn't work, they would have killed themselves.
