Cypress Hill
by Cypress Hill
Really good example of 90’s hip hop. The funky beats are there, the distinctive vocal style, catchy tunes etc. The follow up, Black Sunday, still has the edge over this as the definitive Cypress Hill record though, for me. Their sound evolved on there, incorporating a darker tone. Hearing the sounds of a stormy night with a raw standup bass and an ethereal female vocal are very iconic.
