@cypresshill on the Evolution of Hip Hop and Their Place Within It | Decades of Sound

When hip hop started breaking ground, the members of @cypresshill came together and made a sound all their own.

Now, more than 30 years after their formation, how do the west coast veterans stand the test of time?

This is the first episode of the @Bose x SPIN #DecadesOfSound series, celebrating 3 landmark albums that turn 30 this year and the iconic artists who made them. First up: Black Sunday. #SoundIsPower

The following comes from a mission statement that appeared in the inaugural issue of SPIN. It means as much to this current staff as it did to the original writers and editors.

A confession: SPIN is imperfect. It’s rough-edged, restless, insatiably curious. A little aggressive, a little cocky. Youthfully uncompromising, but maturely flexible. Romantic — definitely! Irreverent — sure! Unpredictable — yes. Very alive.
