Cypress Hill Wants the People to “Rise Up” (Video)

After more than two decades in the game most groups would be happy to simply lay back and coast on their reputation, but Cypress Hill's new album "Rise Up" is so far shaping up to be one of their most sonically adventurous efforts yet. Not only is "Armada Latina" one of my favorite Cypress cuts of all time (cue Kanye), but the album's title track "Rise Up" is an undeniably dope call to action from the chronically blunted, and politically active, L.A. crew. Don't believe me? Check out the hard rock inspired visuals. Also featuring Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello (damn I miss Rage), playing this at anything less than full volume should be illegal.

To celebrate the release of "Rise Up" (on - when else? - 4/20) RefinedHype will be giving away free copies of the album to a few lucky readers. Keep it locked for more details...and we will not be held responsible for any revolutionary activities watching this video prompts. You've been warned.
