02.21.12 4:15PMI was 14, it was summer 1999, and I had a beautiful day riding my bicycle aside the canal. The day was hot and heavy, and we joined a friend near our place to smoke a joint and he played the Temple of Boom album in the CD player. It was like a big slap in my face. Who are those guys ? (we listened mostly to french hip hop and rock). I was later listening to it over and over. I love these guys I bought their 5 first albums.
Best hip hop on the west coast (conscious and true).

02.21.12 2:51PMMy first memories of cypress hill was listening to my older brother listen to them in the early 90's I think I was around 6-7 and singing "hits from the bong". I actually still have my cassette tape of Black Sunday. Hook it up Frank151!!

02.21.12 2:10PMMy favorite/ first memory was actually at smokeout festival!! Such an amazing experience filled with good vibes and great music! I was lucky enough to meet b-real and tommy Chong that night which made that night so much more memorable! Ever since than I told myself it would have to be a tradition. To attend smokeout every year! The atmosphere of all us getting together to support one cause is something that cant be explained! I love what they are doing for the people and frank 151 rocks for giving their readers an amazing once in a life time opportunity to experience this on a whole new level! Thank you much love and the highest appreciation!

02.20.12 6:24PMMy first memories with cypress hill were when i was about 9 or 10 years old, im 20 years old now. I remember being in Mexico with my family and going out to the store and finding all these diffrent types of cassettes and one in particular was Cypress hill's first album. I remember putting it in my cassette player and just listening to it from front to back, every song was so dope. How I could juss kill a man was one track in particular that i liked but there was another track called "the phuncky feel one" that also stuck in my head, the production to that track fit right it with his lyrics and what he was talking about. After that album i started listening to all his other albums and just became a fan instantly. that was my first memory listening to Cypress Hill.

02.20.12 2:40AMLast year was my first year at Smokeout and its also where I met a girl who I fell in love with. I ran into her during MGMT while she was spinning my poi. It was love at first sight yet as fate would have it i had to move back to my home state of Wisconsin. It took me a year to get back out to California. A very stressful year, I lost my mother in June. I think it was mainly because of the medications that she was on. 6 years ago she had a double lung transplant and since then I watched her lose her body and mind to prescription drugs and whatnot....if only there were a more holistic approach legal at the time.....i may still have my mother with me. Since her passing Im a firm believer in staying away from manufactured medication. I would love to have the chance to win free tickets for my girlfriend Jenna and I....it would mean alot due to the fact it would be an anniversary event for us meeting as well as getting to be around the Medical Marijuana community again and learning more about the advances that have been going on this past year. Thank you guys for throwing a great festival. Peace and green friends :)

02.20.12 12:13AMThe first time I have ever seen Cypress Hill in action was in the movie How High [that I just saw in the summer of 2011]. I was hooked ever since, was on the computer downloading all of their songs that I have been so unfortuante not to know about all these years. I can't touch my iPod without putting on Dr. Greenthumb and dancing and trying to sing along to their lyrics. My obsession with Cypress Hill makes it kind of ironic that I am not a smoker, nonetheless that shows just how captivating they are as a group. Every party I throw, I have my Cypress Hill ready and luckily I am not the only one bobbing my head and doing every dance move possible while in a chair. Thanks to my hubby, I will always be a Cypress Hill fan.

02.16.12 2:06AMI was born in Long Beach and was basically raised on Cypress Hill... College Radio was always considered a staple in Underground Hip Hop, but I can still remember when their first single dropped. The lyrics were so raw and the production was so ahead of its time that Cypress Hill had ultimately set the stage for West Coast Rap Music post NWA... DJ Muggs has always been an innovator in my eyes, and I can still remember how many hours I spent listening to Black Sunday on my walkman. B.Real had the ill nasal vocals and their sound was so funky it was almost spooky. From latin-flavored psychedelics to dark minimalism, their style was always evolving. My two favorite memories of Cypress Hill was when they appeared at Rock The Bells and when they also appeared on an episode of The Simpsons.

02.15.12 9:02PMFirst memory of Cypress Hill is listening to Power 106 in LA and hearing for the first time ever "Just kill a man" was ground breaking. It exposed me to LA hip-hop and have never looked back since. That was the summer of 1993 I was 12 years old.
