Following yesterday’s announcement that hip-hop legends Cypress Hill would be releasing a dubstep EP with superstar producer Rusko, who also produced Britney Spears’ dubstep-orientated tracks, the group have released track ‘Roll It, Light It’ as a free download.
Following on from 2010’s ‘Rise Up’, Cypress Hill have followed in the footsteps of Korn and now The Doors and have incorporated the ever-growing electronic dance genre of dubstep in with their signature sound. While some of the younger fans may enjoy the update in sound, though, hardcore Hill fans may not be as impressed – so download the track and let us know what you think.
The five-track E.P, titled ‘Cypress x Rusko’, is set to hit shelves in April - but no official date has been set yet. Speaking of the new record, rapper B-Real said: “This is one of those styles that we felt doing with Rusko would be a great match. We’ve always been the type of group to take chances on doing something radically different than what people expect from us.”
Sen Dog added: “I think dubstep is a natural progression of hip-hop. Especially the way that we formulated it with Rusko, there’s definitely some roughness to it.”
