CYPRESS MUTHAFUCKIN HILL - "BOOM BIDDY BYE BYE" FROM THE '95 ALBUM, 'TEMPLES OF BOOM' . . . . THANKS TO "PAUBOARDIN" FOR HOOKING THIS ONE UP ON POOTUBE . . . . FUCKING 'VEVO' SUCKS ARSE, HAD SOME LAME-O VERSION AND I WON'T PANDER TO THEIR MUSICAL 'ETHOS' . . . . THIS IS THE LEGIT SHIT FROM THEIR KILLER MID NINETIES ALBUM . . . . LOVEY, YOU GOT IT GOIN ON HOMEZ, BIG TIME !!!

WHAT A TRIP THIS PERIOD WAS FOR THE HARDCORE HOMEBOYS THAT WERE CYPRESS HILL, SHIT FALLIN APART INTERNALLY, OUTSIDE INFLUENCES AND INTER-ACT BITCH SLAPPIN AND NAME CALLIN AND THEY STILL MANAGE TO RELEASE THIS SUPERBLY CRAFTED, GROOVE LADEN, PSYCHADELIA DRIPPIN, RAP FRAZZLIN, FREAK POPPIN ALBUM . . . . MY WHITE ON WHITE SOUL BROTHER TIMMY LOVELESS BROUGHT THIS TRACK SMASHING BACK INTO MY CONSCIOUSNESS WITH HIS SUGGESTION AND I CAN'T THANK HIM ENOUGH, WENT AND DUG OUT THE CD AND HAVE BEEN TRIPPIN ON IT SOLID SINCE . . . . I GET SO HUNG UP ON 'BLACK SUNDAY' AND IT'S SEMI-COMIC, OVER THE TOP 'HEADSPACE' I FORGET HOW FUCKING WICKED THIS ENTIRE DISC WAS AND IS . . . . DARK, MALEVOLENT, BROODING, HATEFUL AND THREATENING, YET AT THE SAME TIME LITERALLY OOZING GROOVE AND FEEL THAT VERY FEW HIP HOPPERS EVER GOT NEAR, TRIPPY, ACID AFFECTED, LAYERED SOUNDS, SPLICED WITH SAMPLES SO FRESH IN THEIR STEALING THAT FUCK ALL PEOPLE COULD EVEN PICK UP ON IT . . . . AND PRODUCTION VALUES THAT ARE PRETTY MUCH UNEQUALED IN THEIR GENRE TO THIS DAY . . . . KILLER TUNE, KILLER ALBUM !!!

SO, IF ANYBODY EVER SPROUTS OUT WITH THE OLD CHESTNUT ABOUT THE OG HILL HOMIES BEING JUST A BUNCH OF STONER HIP HOP BUMS, BITCH SLAP THEIR SAD LITTLE ARSES TO THE FLOOR FIRST AND THEN INSERT THIS DISC IN THEIR TRAGICALLY UNINFORMED MOUTH AND KICK THEIR BUTS TO THE NEAREST SOUND SYSTEM AND PUT THEM IN TOUCH WITH ONE OF CONTEMPORARY MUSIC'S MOST CONSIDERED AND BLAZING RELEASES EVER TO SEE THE GREEN SMOKE OF A DIMLY LIT ROOM . . . . AW FUCKIN REET !!!!
