Cypress Hill announce new Black Milk-produced LP & documentary, share song
West Coast hip hop veterans Cypress Hill have announced their tenth album, Back In Black, which was entirely produced by Black Milk and due March 18 via MNRK (pre-order). The first single is "Bye Bye," featuring Dizzy Wright, and it sounds as unmistakable and distinct as Cypress Hill ever have.
"In Cypress Hill tradition, we always try to make a dark song," said B-Real. "It’s what we’ve been known for, especially on our first three albums. This song is a statement. In a roundabout way, we spoke to the politics of today. Being lulled into this dreamworld by the government. Trying to blind us from the separation that they created, to put us to sleep while they do whatever they want." Listen below.
Cypress Hill also announced a new documentary, Insane In The Brain: Cypress Hill, due this spring. Stay tuned for more on that.
Earlier this week, Cypress Hill announced that they'll open the second leg of Slipknot's upcoming tour, alongside industrial rap duo Ho99o9 (who just announced a new Travis Barker-produced album). That tour includes a big Brooklyn arena show on May 20 at Barclays Center (tickets). All dates are listed below.
