Disco de Cypress Hill: “IV”

For the longest time I thought that Black Sunday was the best rap album out there. Then I listened to this. I didn't think it was possible for Cypress Hill to beat Black Sunday, but they did it. I won't deny that this album has a few really stinky tracks (Freak Bi***, Steel Magnolias), but this is more than compensated for by the number of tracks that absolutely rock... I especially love Eye of the Pig, Window of My Room, Audio X, Prelude to a Come Up, and most of all LIGHTNING STRIKES! It's worth buying the cd just for Lightning Strikes. An EXCELLENT album, all in all.

I think AFTER this album Cypress Hill went "down hill", trying to capture the rock crowd with their following release. DJ Mugg's legendary dark grimy beats seem to disappear after this CD.

This album however, is very good!! The production is top notch and original. B-real and Sen do what they do, don't expect any songs about world peace or anything :)

Standout tracks: Checkmate, From the Window of My Room, Prelude To A Come Up (sick piano), Riot Starter, Audio-X, Steel Magnolia, Tequila Sunrise, Dr Greenthumb, Lightning Strikes (guitar riffs, well done though)

This album has it all. From the chilling "Checkmate" to the humorous "Dr. Greenthumb" this album is a must for anyone who likes rap, Cypress Hill, weed, and hates cops. Definently the best Cypress Hill album ever. Especially great to crank up if you have a pig living next door.

Great album by cypress hill....if i could i'd actually give it a 4 and a 1/2. Not a 5 because its not quite a classic but really close. DJ muggs really displays his skills as a producer on this album. The beats go hard!

This was the last of the great Cypress Hill albums. B-Real has a wicked tounge never get tired of listening to it.
