ARTIST INFO:

CYPRESS HILL BIO/INFO-

Cypress Hill (founded 1988) is a Latino American hip-hop group based in South Gate, California.

Founded in 1988, the three original members of Cypress Hill are Cuban-born rapper Sen Dog, rapper of Mexican and Cuban ancestry B-Real, and Italian American DJ Muggs. They were the first Latino American hip-hop group to go platinum and multi-platinum. B-Real’s higher-pitched nasal voice and Sen Dog’s gruffer delivery combined with DJ Muggs’ slow, rolling bass-and-drum loop rhythms influenced the future sound of hip-hop in the 1990s, especially West Coast hip-hop and rap. Cypress Hill was the first major hip-hop music group to include Spanish and Latin slang in their lyrics. They also openly supported the use of marijuana, popularizing the rhetoric for other musicians for years to come.

In the early 1990s, the group added a new member, drummer and percussionist Eric “Bobo” Correa, a Puerto Rican American and son of jazz percussionist Willie Bobo. Bobo added a passion and precision to the group’s use of percussion on their tracks.

In 1999, Cypress Hill rerecorded fourteen of their greatest hits in Spanish and released the album, Los Grandes Éxitos en Español.

DVX, the original incarnation of Cypress Hill, formed in 1986 when Cuban-born brothers Sen Dog (born Senen Reyes, November 20, 1965) and Mellow Man Ace hooked up with fellow Los Angeles residents Muggs (born Lawrence Muggerud, January 28, 1968) and B Real (born Louis Freese, June 2, 1970). The group began pioneering a fusion of Latin and hip-hop slang, developing their own style by the time Mellow Man Ace left the group in 1988. Renaming themselves Cypress Hill after a local street, the group continued to perform around L.A., eventually signing with Ruffhouse/Columbia in 1991.

Cypress Hill is from South Gate, California. Cypress Hill was the first latino group to have platinum and multi-platinum albums and one of the first rap groups to gain a following with fans of hard rock and metal. 

Their first album, which was self-titled, was released in August 1991. Its single was “Phuncky Feel One”, but it was the B-side “How I Could Just Kill a Man” (formerly “Trigga Happy Nigga”) that attracted more airplay on urban radio and college radio. Based on the success of the single and other tracks such as bilingual track “Latin Lingo” and X-rated Spanish track “Tres Equis”, the album sold two million copies in the US alone. Subsequently, DJ Muggs produced the first House of Pain album, then worked on other projects like Funkdoobiest. The band made their first appearance at Lollapalooza on the side stage in 1992.

Black Sunday, the group’s second album, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in 1993, recording the highest Soundscan for a rap group up until that time. Also with their debut still on the charts they became the first rap artists to have 2 albums in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 at the same time. With “Insane in the Brain” becoming a crossover hit, the album went triple platinum in the U.S. and sold about 3.25 million copies.

Cypress Hill was banned from Saturday Night Live after Muggs smoked cannabis on-air and the band trashed their instruments while playing their second single “I Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That”. The band headlined the “Soul Assassins” tour with House of Pain and Funkdoobiest as support, then performed on a college tour with Rage Against the Machine and Seven Year Bitch. In 1993, Cypress Hill also had two tracks on the Judgment Night soundtrack, teamed up with Pearl Jam and Sonic Youth.

The band played at the 1994 Woodstock Festival introducing their new member Eric Bobo, formerly a percussionist with the Beastie Boys, Bobo is the son of salsa musician Willie Bobo. Rolling Stone magazine named the band as the best rap group in their music awards voted by critics and readers. Cypress Hill played at Lollapalooza for two successive years, topping the bill in 1995. They appeared on the The Simpsons episode “Homerpalooza”.

Their third album Cypress Hill III: Temples of Boom was released in 1995 selling 1.5 million copies and reaching number 3 on the Billboard 200 on the strength of the hit single “Throw Your Set in the Air”. Cypress Hill also contributed a track “I Wanna Get High” to the High Times sponsored Hempilation album to support NORML.

Cypress Hill released IV in 1998 which went gold in the U.S., even though the reviews were somewhat negative, on the backs of hit singles “Tequila Sunrise” and another tribute to smoking cannabis “Dr. Greenthumb.” Sen Dog also released the Get Wood sampler as part of SX-10 on the label Flip. In 1999, Cypress Hill helped with the PC crime/very mature video game Kingpin: Life of Crime. Three of their songs from the 1998 IV album were in the game ( “16 Men Till There’s No Men Left”, “Checkmate” and “Lightning Strikes”). B-Real also did some of the voices of the people in the game. Also in 1999, the band released a greatest-hits album in Spanish, Los grandes éxitos en español. Cypress Hill then fused genres with their two-disc release, Skull & Bones, in 2000. The first disc, “Skull” was comprised of rap tracks while “Bones” explored further the group’s forays into rock. The album reached the Top 5 on the Billboard 200 and number 3 in Canada. The first single was “Rock Superstar” for rock radio and “Rap Superstar” for urban radio. The band also released Live at the Fillmore, a concert disc recorded at the Fillmore (in San Fransico) in 2000. Cypress Hill continued their experimentation with rock on the Stoned Raiders album in 2001. However, its sales were a disappointment, as the disc did not even reach the top 50 of the U.S. album charts. In 2001, the group appeared in the film How High. Cypress Hill recorded “Just Another Victim” for the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as a theme song for Tazz. At the time, WWE was using original music for almost all of the wrestlers, so this was an unusual step for the company to take, but it remains one of the more memorable songs to emerge from the wrestling organization. The band released Till Death Do Us Part on March 23, 2004. The album saw the band experiment with reggae especially on the lead single “What’s Your Number”. The track features Tim Armstrong of Rancid on guitar and Rob Aston of The Transplants on backup vocals. It is based on the classic song “Guns of Brixton” on The Clash’s London Calling and has proven to be a success on the modern rock charts. However, the album represented a further departure from the signature sound of their first four albums.
