" Day Destroys the Night,
Nights unwinds the Day,
Reaper's Hold Is Tight,
Lord Take My Pain Away. "
Rise Up ... Cypress Hill ... Like all songs on this album, I do not know where to start ...
I'll make a quick return on their careers. Cypress Hill is twenty years of rap, eight studio albums, a Live at the Fillmore become cult and especially a shovel hits overpowered mixing hip-hop, rock and Latin sounds. The penultimate album, 'Til Death Do Us Part , Released in 2004, had left a bitter taste in the mouths of their fans decayed. Reggae influences had struggled to pass ... Rise Up had to restore the prestige Cypress Hill .
Unfortunately, the album is a failure. According to the legends of the blues, Robert Johnson allegedly sold his soul to the devil to become a great musician. Cypress Hill could not do the same, they have left theirs at the supermarket. Between the swabs and the low-end tequila. The rap group Puppetmastaz , yet composed of puppets, has a hundred times more than the soul can be heard Rise Up in . Again, a group icon turns into its own parody. The lyrics are laughable, samples dull and tired voice. Only a few pieces come painfully to stand out. With its sample drawn from the work of Crosby, Stills & Nash, Armada Latina and a nice song that makes you want to go on vacation, even if it looks more like the Calle 13 at the Cypress . The rest of the album is bland. Get it anyway resembles the soundtrack of an old Burn Out , the chorus and the music of Take My Pain not exceed no two notes and Armed and Dangerous would be comical if it was not really dangerous to the eardrums.
As in many missed album, the group highlights numerous collaborations with musicians, singers and rappers. I know that the feat is part of hip-hop. After all, Chronic 2001 second solo album from Dr. Dre, would have been bland without Snoop Dogg, Xzibit and Eminem. But here, the duets are more pushy than artistic. Tom Morelo, Daron Malakian, Pitbull, Everlast and Marc Anthony are only names on the back of the album: they do nothing more.
While that was criticized 'Til Death Do Us Part artistic choice was the reggae influences here, no choice is critical: there was none. This album gives the impression of being a compilation of songs that had been rejected earlier on. There is no consistency or novelty.
The best conditions for listening to the album: Shave your head, do you grow a mustache, tattoo-you stuff in English, and will make low-riding to South Gate, California.
The best song on the album : Armada Latina
The sequence of good taste: Clones Live in Berlin - or Los Puppetmastaz of Atrás Vienen Conmigo - Calle 13

The opinion of Fred
Cypress Hill has always had a special place among the top names in hip-hop style with Latino backgrounds have assumed an iconography based cranes away from the universe "gangsta" and two special voice but perfectly complementary. The uniqueness of the group was checked throughout their career passing moods easily macabre and melancholy (with perfect Cypress Hill III ) to more rock sounds worthy of Rage Against The Machine.
Unfortunately, this period is long gone. Today, you will have to settle for an aging group who rehash past glories as a veteran of the Los Angeles riots. Rise Up, the eighth album is in the same vein as their previous album ( Til Death Do Us Part ): generic and soulless. The group resumed his favorite themes, alternating between the stories of drugs ( Light It Up, Pass The Dutchie, KUSH) and gun (Bang Bang , Shut 'em Down, Armed and Dangerous ). Where young B-Real and Sen Dog seemed desperate and ready for anything, new retirees border on parody at all times.
Musically, it's a disaster. Apart Armada Latina quilted Crosby Still & Nash and Get 'em Up reminiscent Wu-Tang Clan, the samples are insipid ( Light It Up ) see unlistenable ( Bang Bang) . The group does not spare us a shot. Over an album without any binder, you'll get the song drinking ( Pass The Dutchie ), the anagram can we want to get tattooed on the nape ( KUSH - Keep Us ... So High) and the ballad of the sad gangster. In short, the duo made a ton to prove that they are neither chastened nor dull. In vain.
In tears, the amateur group, will soon forget Rise Up and Return listen Boom Biddy Bye Bye duet with the future president of Haiti to find the sticky atmosphere of the group at the height of his career.
