Evergreen hip hop group, Cypress Hill, has announced the release of their 10th studio album titled ‘Back in Black’. Produced entirely by Black Milk, the album is available on MNRK.
To celebrate the album’s release, the group has released a new video for “Certified,” which was directed by Tillavision, who in 2021 created content in the 3D, AR (augmented reality), and VR (virtual reality) spaces for Swae Lee, Pop Smoke, JuiceWRLD, Young Dolph, Lyrical Lemonade, Bape, Chinatown Market, Chicago Bears, Patrick Mahomes, and Kyler Murray.
“We’re grateful to our fans for riding with us for three decades,” said B-Real. “Working with one of the greatest producers out there, Black Milk, took us back to our roots and still brought something fresh to the table, which isn’t easy to do. We’re excited to play the new songs on tour this year.”
Cypress Hill with casino games, will kick off a major tour schedule for the year, which will include a leg of Slipknot’s Knotfest Roadshow 2022. Below are all of the tour dates that have been announced. In addition, the group has announced a new documentary titled Insane In The Brain: Cypress Hill.
In an industry that continues to evolve, adapting to change is what Cypress Hill pride themselves on. Throughout their illustrious run, the West Coast luminaries broke boundaries by collaborating with Sonic Youth and Pearl Jam, dabbled in dubstep and reggae, and embraced psychedelia.
“Even back when we started, we were doing things that no other hip-hop crew was doing,” says Sen Dog, a founding father whose gruff vocals complimented fellow frontman B-Real’s high-pitched flows for over 30 years. “Stuff like stage diving and allowing fans to jump on stage with us was common in rock and metal but not in rap. We were to the left of everything that was going on in
hip-hop at the time, and that opened up doors for us. Doors that we left wide open for future generations to come through and be successful, too.”
Cypress Hill have gone on to become immovable pillars of pop culture, becoming one of the biggest bands of all time with over 20 million albums sold. Platinum plaques and Grammy nominations came their way, as well as being immortalized on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and they memorably appeared on The Simpsons where they coaxed the London Symphony Orchestra into playing a rendition of “Insane in the Brain.”

Recorded whilst in a COVID-enforced lockdown, Back in Black is a 10-track throwback that combines their knack of searing socio-political nous with contemporary cannabis culture. Cypress Hill remain as in-your-face as ever, hell-bent on reintroducing themselves to another legion of rap fans as evidenced by the uncompromising intro “Takeover.”
There’s an undercurrent of rage against the machine throughout the record, with the Dizzy Wright-assisted “Bye Bye” being the clearest example of their dissatisfaction with the system and the harsh realities of street life. They even hark back to a cinematic classic in “The Original,”which samples soundbites from Goodfellas’ embattled Henry Hill — someone who Sen appreciates as a kindred spirit. “He was the ultimate gangster. He lived the life, lived to tell the tale about it, and made money in the end.”
