Early 90s hip hop was a good era. There was a lot of diversity in rap albums and people were still coming up with great and innovative sounds, ideas, and lyrics.
you and me both probably feel old saying that, though I were always slow and were born in the 90s so I guess u are the real old one and I am just the slow one ;)
Haha! In like 2010 I was managing a restaurant and listening to funk. One of the kids says: "this is cool! ..do you like hip hop?" I said "I do! I like old school hip hop, though" She goes "oh! Me too! Like Biggie n' Pac, n' stuff?!?" I was like "no. Like Run Dmc, Beastie Boys, Dana Dane." 🤣
Cypress Hill had huge crossover appeal when their album Black Sunday came out. All the kids who were rap fans at my high school were listening to them but so were all the grunge and metal kids.
Lex is very accurate. The local skater/stoner kids when I was growing up (in Cape Town) wore baggy pants with chains, and loved both Cyprus Hill, and Beavis and Butt-Head. They have the same vibe for me.
They were indeed on Beavis and Butthead, also on The Simpsons ,the homerpalooza episode I believe. Speaking as a northern California kid who has been to Cypress Hill many times , I just got to say, Picket packet fire it up come along take some "Hits from the bong"
It's amazing how the generation born in the 90's and beyond know nothing about anything before they were born. I was a teen and the 80's and I was aware of music from the 70's, 60's 50's, probably earlier. Wasn't just me, everyone was in the same boat. There's definitely a reason(s). Wish I could figure it out.
@jeff We had less choice. And because of that, we raided our parent's vinyl stash too. To find something fresh and new, you'd have to read obscure zines, go and actually listen to records in the 'wrecka sto', or get tipped by friends. Not even radio or tv so much, especially before MTV Late Night. And if you did find something that might be good, that's a whole week of allowance right there. Kids today have a million times more choice, and it's all basically free to listen to.
I’m astounded by the ignorance. Even kids who consider themselves knowledgeable about music seem to have the flimsiest grasp of anything pre-2010. The entire history of recorded music at their fingertips and they don’t even scratch the surface.
@@Dreyno That incredible access to everything, along with the constant bombardment of so much new music (the most promoted of which is more deliberately engineered to be appealing), is why so many younger people have that ignorance. They aren't limited to a finite number of curated radio stations. It is like feeding a kid dinner every night by turning them loose in a vegas buffet with no supervision. You can't be surprised that they only eat desserts and never try seafood or vegetables.
I think it has to do with music turning from physical media to digital. I would pull out my parents old records and reel to reel tapes all the time. It was physical. Kids aren't looking for their parents old Zune and zip drives, and they probably don't work anyway.
Born in '71 and all my cousins were older , I know every genre and time period from 1950-2000v , of music . We are blessed with the music we grew up with .
To what Lex was talking about, not having a feel for the era... the 90s weren't just one era. 1990 to the first half of 1991 was still holding on to the late 80s. On the east coast late 1991 through early 1993 was another era, but in the west, 1992 started off an entire era with The Chronic that lasted most of the decade. In the east, 1993 was when Wu-Tang "Protect Ya Neck" and Nas "It Ain't Hard To Tell" hit and then Big's "Juicy" and Illmatic in '94. That was an era that last until '98 or '99 when the Cam'rons and Eminems blew up. In the South you had even more regional diversity where early 90s Rap-A-Lot and Florida bass dominated, then Outkast took over in the mid-90s, and No lImit took over in the late 90s. And in the mid 90s you had a coast to coast indy underground movement that kicked off with groups like Company Flow (El-P of Run The Jewelz) and branched into labels like ABB and Rawkus which brought us Dilated Peoples and Blackstar, which artists like Evidence and Alchemist, and Talib Kweli and Mos Def came out of. Eminem was even working with Rawkus for a split-second. And this is a brief overview so it's even more complicated than all that, which I'm sure some commenters will go to the pains of pointing out below this. Whatever you're gonna post, I'm aware. I'm trying to sum up here. I can't cover everything. lol But yeah, if you can't get the feel of the 90s, it's because there is no one feel of the 90s. And most artists were trying to bring their own vibe to the table. It was cool to have your own sound back then. Versus now where everyone is emulating the same three people.
That’s DJ Muggs on production. Very unique sound and one of the most underrated hip hop producers. He brought a very east coast sound to west coast rappers. None more so than the great Cypress Hill.
The song is built around many samples: a drum break from organist George Semper's cover version of Lee Dorsey's "Get Out of My Life, Woman"; a sample of James Brown grunting from the opening of his song "Say It Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud"; a sample of the line "insane in the brain" from Cypress Hill's own song "Hole in the Head"; the opening keyboard from Sly and the Family Stone's "Life", a sample of the line "I think I'm going crazy" from the Youngblood's' "All Over the World (La La)" which concludes the track and the most prominent sample throughout the song, a repeating sample of, in which DJ Muggs initially claimed, a pitched blues guitar,[6] although shortly after, he changed his story and claimed that that sound is a horn..
@@odemusvonkilhausen I think temples of boom is the best but honestly you could pick any of the first 3 as their best album and nobody would be wrong because they all kick ass
Damn this song takes me back. I've listened to Cypress Hill since the early 90s. I still remember checking these guys out in Detroit in the late 90's for the first time amazing live show too
Omg she called it on who was watching it. Cypress Hill was on an alternative rock tour I think lollapallooza I know they've played the gathering of the juggalos a few times too. They have a wide fanbase.
This was one of the first hiphop tracks I truly enjoyed, this one, ''The Message'', ''It's Tricky'', ''Eight Million Stories'', ''Jump Around'', ''The Humpty Dance'', love me some old school!
Wayne's World was the first "couch gang" that appeared on SNL in 88 and Beavis and Butthead was the 2nd "couch gang" that did more reactions to rock/metal vids in the early 90's and then became a regular series. You guys are the next gen "couch gang".... thanks for keeping it real guys 🤘😎🤘
Lex your smile and giggle are infectious! Brad you are the LUCKIEST guy! Saw this group before. Everyone was instructed to smoke up ine the audience and the cos did nothing. Lol
Lex nailed it. The look including the hat was exactly as she described it. These guys toured with Limp Bizkit on a free tour sponsored by Napster. I went to both Detroit shows and it was a blast.
Lex was spot on about the Hill and the 90s vibe, baggy jeans and hoodies. I was one of them kids. That was hip-hop for the Beavis and Butthead audience, that alternative hip-hop era.
Ok so I’m a Metal Head “80s girl all the way and I can tell you that most of us were listening to 80s and 90s Hip Hop !!! Love Cypress Hill !!! Now try “I Ain’t going out like That” and I wanna get High” !!!!!!
No "WE" weren't. There were a few hip hop artists that transcended the genres but until Run DMC and Aerosmith did their collab most metal heads had barely heard of hip hop. So, YOU may have been listening to it, but "WE" weren't.
@@DarthPoyner I’m talking about all the metal bands that played at the bars around me here outside of Philly, some of theses band would play music before getting on stage and some would play so hip hop along with the metal!!!! And yes I know a lot of metal heads that did have a liking for some hip hop!!! Back then!!!!!!!
In the 90’s this album along with public enemy and house of pain made a regular rural white kid from Utah aware of hip hop. As an old man I still appreciate this shit immensely.
Beavis and Buttjead did react To this . The reacted to all kinds of music and some they hated . The could heckle anyone and some artists loved it . It drew attention to their song and people checked it out .. but when they lived someone it was awesome . They danced and kicked each other’s ass in those short reaction videos
Saw them in their heyday while in HS. Once with House of Pain and Funkdoobiest, then with Rage Against The Machine and 7 Year Bitch. I miss the 90s at times.
In this episode of Brad & Lex, the drum sample activates Brad's signature "side to side sway". Shortly after Brad shows his delight when he catches the "looter in the riot" bar. He maintains his sway after a discussion with Lex about the origin of this song. Though slightly confused, Lex still maintains a "healthy bop" then cracks a corny yet cute pun.
Cypress Hill was almost always be played on the party scene at one time. Many people getting stoned smoking weed in those days. Stoners loved this stuff.
Reminds me of school dances back in the day. Be like a club and have a DJ playing music and when this or any other Cypress Hill song would come on people would get all pumped up.
I think Cypress Hill's Image was very gangster. They were well after 'old skool', but had a lot of the rap fundamentals of old skool. At the time they were played on Alternative Rock radio and Rap Radio. Even night clubs played remixes of this. It was a drinking song.
Cypress Hill just got their 🌟 star on the Hollywood walk of fame and are very relevant still. More than you could imagine."Thanks Dr Greenthumb.your the shit" Cypress Hill for Life est.91
B-Real is a legend. He has been in the cannabis world for many decades. Even has Strains named for him "Breeder: Humboldt Seed Organizations - Strain: Dr. Greenthumbs Em-Dog". Dr. Greenthumb is a Cypress Hill track about B-Real's alter Ego Dr. Greenthumb, a cannabis grower.
My uncle loved this song and he was goofy and he would always bust out in song and sing this song every time. RIP but i miss that and i love this song as well
1: House of pain- jump around 2: Cypress Hill- insane in the Brain 3: Chris Cross-Jump around All came out. With copyright litigation. It’s a whole thing in the Hiphop history.
I saw Cypress Hill several times at VoodooFest in New Orleans when I lived down south. Very talented musicians, played live instruments instead of the preprogrammed beats, and sounded great every single instance I saw them.
Feels Jamaican ain't wrong! And Skater Grunge ain't wrong neither! Cypress Hill blended so much together it brought everyone to their sound. Metal heads with a handful of rap albums because Hand On The Pump caught an ear and stuff
Beavis and Butthead was the start of the whole adult cartoon era. They played all kinds of video briefs on their show with them on the couch either praising or dissing the song. They were great! I think this song was on there once.
I had spiked hair and baggy pants with chains. Cypress Hill was in my regular CD rotation. This song sounds best when played in a parking lot through 5000watts of car audio equipment.
Cypress hills was a park between Queens and Brooklyn more specific Ridgewood and Jamaica. Forrest Park was the hangout for all the groups of teens partying. Cypress was the Cypress Indians, ondadunk Seneca, all Indians that lived in that area before the settlers. Anyways they played with Beasty Boys in whatcha whatcha want. Different kid of tribal in the hood areas. Funny crazy that's what we were. Another trip back to Brooklyn.
When I saw them in 94 at Woodstock (Saugerties) they came out with a giant hand sculpture, and a lit, real, 8 foot by a foot thick joint that they had smoke blow out across the first few dozen rows.
The beats back in the day, fucking hell. Cypress together with House of Pain and the Beastie Boys, man, forced my parents to listen to it so many time LoL

Beavis and Butthead did react to this song I remember it
Beavis and Butt-head are the reason I know about Pantera, cypress hill & white zombie, Among others
