Superfruit (often stylized as SUP3RFRUIT) is an American musical and comedy duo consisting of Mitch Grassi and Scott Hoying, both known as members of the a cappella group Pentatonix. Superfruit is also the name of their comedy show, featured on their eponymous YouTube channel.[2][3] Their channel was created in August 2013 with a focus on comedic vlogs and music performances. As of July 2023[update], the channel has over 2.4 million subscribers and over 481 million views.[4]

In 2016, the duo became more involved in musical activities, with the releases of their first original songs, "Bad 4 Us" on October 18 and "Sweet Life" on November 15.[5][6] On June 30, 2017, the duo released their first EP, Future Friends: Part One, followed on September 15 by both the EP Future Friends: Part Two, and Future Friends, which acted as a compilation album containing both EPs and Superfruit's debut studio album.[7] Superfruit's sound differs from their a cappella work with Pentatonix as it features electric and electronic instruments, while retaining their usual pop, melody-oriented style.

According to Grassi, he and Hoying were at IHOP and discussed how they wanted to individually start YouTube channels, but eventually decided to launch one together.[8][unreliable source?] According to Hoying, the name Superfruit "came from Mitch's random mind".[9][unreliable source?] The first Superfruit video was uploaded on August 13, 2013.[10]
Superfruit consists mainly of comedic vlogs and various casual games and competitions, but the channel also features a number of musical projects. Most videos solely feature Hoying and Grassi, but some include other musical artists or non-musical guests. Both Grassi and Hoying identify as gay.[11][12]
In 2019, ice skater Adam Rippon appeared in Superfruit's "The Promise" music video.[13]
Since 2020, Superfruit's social media have remained dormant, with the exception of re-uploading GUY.exe on October 12, 2021 due to its popularity on TikTok. Both Hoying and Grassi have expressed interest in creating more content but time has been very scarce since Pentatonix continues to grow and thrive worldwide and are currently touring. Alongside this, both are focusing on their careers as solo artists.
