Looking up the album cover on the intranet was loads of fun because pretty soon after I got this tape, I completely lost everything except the tape itself, probably in some stupid reckless yet hilarious retarded fashion that has a great story to this day, but I never knew the Cypress Hill tape was involved. Well anyways, I've kept this tape in a cassette tape shell for years that was just a clear case, probably jacked from shitty TDK mix someone gave me, and it was covered in candle wax, for some reason, hopefully because I was pouring hot candle wax on some Italian chick's big fat titties, but more likely because I was doing acid and listening to Cypress Hill and used the thing as a candlestick pedestal of some sorts.
Cypress Hill is totally great because they have beats made by a white dude who smokes mad weed and loves old Memphis Soul, and they have a latin dude with a fucked-up voice like he's got a head cold, and they talk all the time about 420 24-7 365 4life and all that. But I've come to a point in my life that I could give a fuck less about Cypress Hill unless somebody gave me an instrumental version of all their shit. Or better yet, one that's instrumentals but with Sen Dog's hype track so it'd just be fucked up hip hop dub beats with some dude yelling every now and then "IN THE BRAIN!" in a cartoon voice. That'd be totally sweet, like tea is supposed to be.

The first Cypress Hill record was one of my favorite records ever. I actually listened to it the other day, but it isn't the same. Most of it was unlistenable to me now.
This one I got the day it came out, on cassette. I liked it for a couple weeks, but I don't know. It just seemed to appeal more to frat boys than anyone else. I traded it to someone shortly after and never listened to it again. The Beastie Boys "So Watch'a Want" remix with B-Real is better than anything on this tape.
The first Cypress Hill tape did far better on this final 100 bullshit thing than I'm comfortable admitting to. And I have that single you mention, and yeah, it's way better than almost anything. That might be my favorite verse he ever did and he did it on a stupid Beastie Boys 12-inch b-side remix.
