CYPRESS HILL

La leggenda multiplatino dell'hip-hop festeggia
3 incredibili decenni di pubblicazioni annunciando
BACK IN BLACK
il decimo album in studio
in uscita il 18 marzo 2022, via BMG

Disponibile dal 21 gennaio
il nuovo singolo "Bye Bye" ft Dizzy Wright

I luminari multiplatino dell'hip-hop Cypress Hill, dopo l'acclamato album "Elephants On Acid" del 2018, annunciano oggi il loro decimo album in studio BACK IN BLACK, prodotto da Black Milk e in uscita il 18 marzo, via BMG.

L'album segna il traguardo dei 30 anni di carriera della band: “This album is a return to our roots,” ha affermato Sen Dog. “We were proud hip-hoppers back in the day and we’ve gone through it all. We’re proud to be part of the hip-hop industry. Doing a straight hip-hop joint was the way to go.” .

Ad accompagnare l'annuncio, la pubblicazione della traccia "Bye Bye", secondo estratto da BACK IN BLACK, una traccia oscura e percussiva, in cui i Cypress Hill spiazzano l'ascoltatore aggiungendo al mix il rapper emergente originario del Michigan Dizzy Wright, che regala una strofa eccezionale sul costo della violenza.

Sulla traccia B-Real ha detto: “I think with this song, it’s a statement where - in a roundabout way - we speak to the politics of today. That we’re being lulled into this dreamworld. To try to blind us from the separation that the politicians and government create. Trying to put us to sleep and while we’re in this sleep state of unawareness they do whatever they want.”.

Dopo la pubblicazione dei due precedenti singoli, "Champion Sound" - incluso nella colonna sonora di R.B.I. Baseball '21, l'ottavo capitolo della serie di giochi RBI sviluppato dalla Major League Baseball - e "Open Ya Mind", la traccia "Bye Bye" continua a esaltare la vincente dinamica a doppia voce dello storico gruppo nominato ai Grammy, portandola a nuovi livelli - grazie anche alla collaborazione con Dizzy Wright.

BACK IN BLACK apre loro le porte a un incredibile quarto decennio di pubblicazioni, puntando i riflettori sul motivo per cui sono costantemente riconosciuti come uno dei più grandi punti di riferimento del panorama hip-hop di tutti i tempi.

About Cypress Hill
Three decades ago, B-Real, Sen Dog and DJ Muggs sparked a trip that left popular culture stoned, stunned and staggering in anticipation for more.
Naming themselves after a local street in Los Angeles, Cypress Hill burst on the scene in 1991 with the release of their self-titled debut album.
The singles “How I Could Just Kill a Man” and “The Phuncky Feel One” became underground hits, and the group’s public pro-marijuana stance earned them many fans among the alternative rock community. Cypress Hill followed their debut with Black Sunday in the summer of 1993, which debuted at #1onBillboard’s Top 200 and went triple platinumin the U.S. As a result, Cypress Hill became the first rap group to have two albums in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 charts at the same time.
Cypress Hill went on to release six more records and have sold over 18 million copies worldwide, becoming the first Latino-American hip-hop group to achieve platinum and multi-platinum success.
The band has also been immortalized by a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (coming in 2019), getting animated for an episode of The Simpsons and earning a spot on VH1’s “100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop” with smash single “Insane in the Brain”.
Additionally, Cypress Hill has been sampled by everyone from JAY-Z and The Black Eyed Peas, to A$AP Rocky and Vic Mensa with Chance the Rapper.
