Description
Down With The Kings welcomes Sen Dog of Cypress Hill to the next episode! Sen Dog talks about the rapid success of the group and becoming the #1 band in two years out the gate, their contributions to the Latino movement significance and the events leading up to Cypress Hill being banned from Saturday Night Live. Cypress Hill were notable for being the first Latino hip-hop superstars, but they became notorious for their endorsement of marijuana, which actually isn’t a trivial thing. Not only did the group campaign for its legalization, but their slow, rolling bass-and-drum loops pioneered a new, stoned funk that became extraordinary influential in ’90s hip-hop. All that and more on the next episode of #DownWithTheKings exclusively on #MaximumFMHipHop
