Cypress Hill brought nostalgia and legendary vibes to their Tiny Desk performance, with Sen Dog cradling his iconic ’90s bucket hat and B Real jokingly asking if the greenroom was truly “green.” The first Latino hip-hop group to achieve platinum status, Cypress Hill crafted a groundbreaking sound—dark, psychedelic, and ahead of its time in addressing mental health and advocating for weed legalization. Joining the core duo were DJ Muggs, Eric Bobo, DJ Lord, and Beastie Boys’ Money Mark, along with a horn section for a stripped-down yet funky set. B Real shared stories of their three-decade journey, paired with classics like “Insane in the Brain” and “How I Could Just Kill a Man.”
