Formed by Pentatonix's Mitch Grassi and <a href="spotify:artist:3IIbBLDy4r6X6sX0OXQtuY">Scott Hoying</a>, Superfruit began as the duo's YouTube channel before becoming another outlet for their music. Initially, <a href="spotify:artist:3IIbBLDy4r6X6sX0OXQtuY">Hoying</a> and Grassi wanted to start individual channels on the site, but decided to join forces. They launched Superfruit in August 2013, and the channel's mix of gay-friendly vlogs, sketches, and music earned hundreds of millions of views. Superfruit began releasing original music in 2016 with that October's single "Bad 4 Us"; another song, "Sweet Life," appeared in November. Along with collaborations with <a href="spotify:artist:0t3QQl52F463sxGXb1ckhB">Betty Who</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:26AHtbjWKiwYzsoGoUZq53">Pentatonix</a> member Kirstin Maldonado, in 2017 the duo released its debut album as a pair of EPs. Future Friends: Part One, which featured contributions from PC Music's <a href="spotify:artist:1PNvaesh1mkKZucGhBuqgD">Danny L. Harle</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:7hAolICGSgXJuM6DUpK5rp">Chairlift</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:4Ge8xMJNwt6EEXOzVXju9a">Caroline Polachek</a>, arrived that June; Future Friends: Part Two appeared that September. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
