Black Sunday - Cypress Hill Reviews

Rap/Hip hop is not something I can normally abide with a couple of exceptions, namely the efforts of vocalist Mike Patton with Faith No More (who hold the dubious honour of helping to pave the way for the emergence of Nu Metal), the vocals on Rage Against The Machine's debut and finally Cypress Hill's 1993 album 'Black Sunday' 'Black ...  Read the complete review

Black Sunday is the 1993 album by one of the biggest ever rap acts in history Cypress Hill. Consisting of B-Real, Sen Dogg, and DJ Muggs, all three members have a Latin/Hispanic influence they represent in their music. Black Sunday on release debuted at #1 on the US billboard album charts, the first ever rap band to achieve this, and has since ...  Read the complete review

'Black Sunday' is the super second album from the American hip-hop group that is Cypress Hill. The album was released in 1993 and consists of a grand total of fourteen tracks; it's a great little album from Cypress Hill and one which comes complete with a high number of top tracks. I'm not exactly a massive fan of hip-hop, I do however have a ...  Read the complete review

This album is a classic from Cypress Hill, being their second album released. If you are looking for an album that contains 'explicit lyrics' then this, or one of the other albums i have reccomended (see my opinion on 'rap') is definately for you. Every song either refers to cmoking weed or killing people, and all in a very ...  Read the complete review

Ever since its classic, self-titled debut introduced Cypress Hill to the world back in 1991, the Latino crew from East L.A. has held a special place in the blunted heart (and lungs) of the hip-hop nation. Like any group that's been in the game as long as it has, Cypress has seen its share of career highs and lows -- and one of the biggest ...  Read the complete review

Cypress Hill’s hardcore hip hop sound on their sophmore long player was a style far removed from the NWA-themed verbal battering lamenting the state of the United States policing system. While CH’s own take wasn’t adverse to putting punks in their place, there was something about the incessant rhyme schemes of how many joints you ...  Read the complete review

This has to be one of my all-time favourite items. If you are into rock, hip-hop or think cannabis should be legalised or decriminalised, this is an album you'll want to hear. Clearly the main point of the album is for Cypress Hill to show their love for guns and marijuana, much like The Chronic by Dr Dre. I would greatly recommend this ...  Read the complete review

In 1991, the climate for hip-hop, as it had in alternative music with the advent of Nirvana, was undergoing radical changes. Around this time, when Cypress Hill released their eponymous debut, George Clinton's influence on rap was becoming more apparent, most notably in Dr. Dre's 1992 G-Funk trendsetter THE CHRONIC. This album encapsulated ...  Read the complete review
