Cypress Hill has long represented the will of the people. With over 18 million albums sold worldwide, the Los Angeles trio of rappers B –Real, Sen Dog and producer DJ Muggs have continued to push rap’s boundaries since their inception in the early 90s.
With their eponymous debut album in 1991, B –Real and Sen Dog established themselves as one of rap’s most potent duos. |
Their creative phrasing, distinctive voices and graphic subject matter, coupled with DJ Muggs’ atmospheric, piercing and dusty beats, propelled the trio to international superstar status.
In 2010 Cypress Hill will release their 8th studio album, ‘Rise Up’ produced by Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine, and featuring the talents of Pete Rock, Daron Malakian, Mike Shinoda, Apathy, Pitbull, Marc Anthony and more. ‘Rise Up’ is the trio’s first release under the Snoop Dogg administration at Priority Records.
As the years have passed, the crew’s dynamic stage show – bolstered in 1994 by the addition of percussionist Eric Bobo (also of Beastie Boys fame) – has evolved into one of raps most polished, as such intense tunes, ‘Insane In The Brain’, ‘Rock Superstar’, ‘How I Could Just Kill A Man’, ‘We Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That’, ‘Lick A Shot’ and ‘Real Estate’ translated perfectly to the stage. Given this reality, it’s little surprise that Cypress Hill remain a major concert draw, even when they take time off between albums.
In 2010 Cypress Hill bring that legendary live show to Australia for a national tour and to headline the Coaster Festival at Gosford, on the NSW Central Coast.
Rise Up is in store now through Priority Records and EMI Australia.
