Cypress Hill
Album : Black Sunday
Release Date : July 20, 1993

Label : Sony

 

Review :

If a case can be made for gangsta rap, Cypress Hill is the act to make it. The trio of L.A. Latinos has the commercial clout and its raps are mercifully free of the misogyny, homophobia, and anti-Asian, anti-Jewish racism that so often mars the genre. Member/producer D.J. Muggs creates an eerily lean soundscape of whining sirens, off-kilter funk rhythms, metallic percussion, nasal taunts, and gruff warnings that’s the aural equivalent of today’s nerve-rattling cop flicks and mob movies.

Track Listings :
1. I Wanna Get High
2. I Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That
3. Insane in the Brain
4. When the Sh— Goes Down
5. Lick a Shot
