Um 50 Jahre HipHop zu feiern, besuchten Cypress Hill die Studios von NPR, um dort ein Tiny Desk Konzert zum Besten zu geben.
While the term „pioneer“ is used loosely in pop culture today, few terms describe Cypress Hill’s impact over the past three decades more adequately. They are the first Latino hip-hop group to achieve platinum and multi-platinum status. B Real, Sen and producer DJ Muggs crafted a sound in the ’90s that stretched beyond regional boundaries. It was dark, psychedelic and at times directly addressed mental health before the topic was commonplace. Many dismissed the group as „stoner rappers,“ yet the members were fervent advocates for the legalization of weed long before it came to fruition.
