Cypress Hill

Cypress Hill is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Pearl Jam, J Rocc, Rammellzee, Downsyde and Afroman. Those roots explain a lot about how Cypress Hill arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as House of Pain, The Psycho Realm, Funkdoobiest, Delinquent Habits and Naughty By Nature, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Quarashi, The Goats, Audioslave, Rancid and Yolandi Visser, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 96 connections around Cypress Hill, reaching back through Pearl Jam and forward to Quarashi.

Background

Cypress Hill is an American hip-hop group formed in South Gate, California in 1988. One of the first Latin American groups to gain mainstream recognition in hip-hop, they have sold over 20 million albums worldwide, and have obtained multi-platinum and RIAA platinum certifications. They are considered to be among the main progenitors of West Coast hip-hop and 1990s hip-hop. All of the group members advocate for recreational marijuana use as well as medical marijuana use of cannabis in the United States. In 2019, Cypress Hill became the first hip-hop group to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
