cypress hill documentary

[Extra Cheese]

I haven't seen it yet. if anyone saw it i was wondering if the bboys were more than just a couple of words in it? i know it aint about them but theres the bobo and early touring connection

heard a little bit of drink champs with cypress and muggs talking about they went on tour with the bboys to steal their fans lol. Muggs always sounds so miserable with a chip on his shoulder lol

watched it on 4/20. they mention the Beasties and give them nothing but props and appreciation. they tell a couple stories too. i think they were all Bobo related.

i’ll love the first 3 Cypress records. the sonics on the first one are amazing.

i saw them once in Camden NJ at a summer festival show. Cypress, Beasties and the Strokes were the headliners. i was impressed with their live show.

truth. Black Sunday is an achievement. What a vibe. “I Want To Get High” is a top five all time album opene. Off the chain.

First one is straight bonkers. 1. Pigs 2. Kill a man 3. Hand on the pump, I thought pigs was a dope weird song. Weird song, hardcore song, song with a duke of earl sample?!?!?!?!??? Bonkers

i think elephants on acid is amazing, on the sonos setup it hits hard. the new record and a lot of the nu-metal'ish stuff in the middle didn't do it for me aside from a few bangers here and there. that elephants record though is really good for a late career drop. it's the type of experimental record i would expect the beasties to be releasing in 2022. ugh alas...

Yeah that first one is incredible. Really one of the best rap albums but never really gets mentioned, kinda underrated in that sense. B's flow is impeccable and the beats are so creative and musical. That shit is real art.

B Real's a rapper who kinda gets overlooked, I think it's cause his content is pretty basic and repetitive. His flows can just be insanely good though.

I always enjoyed that old chestnut about when Yauch nearly got into a fist-fight with a club DJ when the DJ rebutted Yauch's insistence that he play the entire Cypress Hill self-titled LP from front to back, just after it came out. for the life of me can't recall where I read that.

Your comment reminded me of a track on IV... I think it’s Audio X? Ridiculous flow. So much so he almost doesn’t pulll it off.

I’ve enjoyed a lot of the Hill’s output and, like the Beadties, I always appreciated how they delivered all the vocals live without backing tracks etc (the full band nu-metal segment of the show era was not for me though).
