CYPRESS HILL - Cypress Hill

I'm familiar with a few tracks - obviously so 'How I Could Just Kill A Man' - but I'm still struck by how... cartoony this #HipHop group sounds, especially B-Real.

Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of early #90s #Gangsta #Rap ultra-violence to be had. But time devoted to 'cheeba' and funny wordplay lends this a lighter tone than you'd expect. Also, d'em low-ridin' rhythms! Spanish raps are cool too, even if I haven't a clue what they're saying.
