Back in Black

Cypress Hill, the legendary West Coast hip hop group, returns with their tenth studio album, "Back in Black," released on March 18, 2022. This album marks a significant collaboration with producer Black Milk, who brings a fresh and energetic sound to the project. The 10-track album, clocking in at just over 32 minutes, is a blend of Cypress Hill's signature hardcore hip-hop style with a modern twist, featuring crisp drums and warm bass guitar.

"Back in Black" opens with the assertive "Takeover," setting the tone for the album's bold and unapologetic vibe. The album continues with tracks like "Open Ya Mind" and "Certified" (featuring Demrick), showcasing Cypress Hill's lyrical prowess and sharp storytelling. The album also features a standout collaboration with Dizzy Wright on "Bye Bye," adding a dynamic layer to the group's sound.

The album's production is notable for its departure from the group's usual collaborations with DJ Muggs, offering a livelier and more vibrant feel. Tracks like "Come with Me" and "The Original" highlight Cypress Hill's ability to blend their classic sound with contemporary influences, making "Back in Black" a compelling addition to their discography.

Available on various platforms and as a limited-edition 180g vinyl, "Back in Black" is a testament to Cypress Hill's enduring influence in the hip hop genre. The album is a must-listen for fans of West Coast hip hop and anyone looking to experience the raw energy and creativity that Cypress Hill is known for.
