...indeedthey did. Or I think they did. Lots of bands thesedays make it difficult to tell what they'resinging about. Victory at Sea played what I wouldin a generous mood call meditative songs, but whatI will instead call droning and boring songs, thatwent on forever.

Cypress Hill IV shows that rap has not taken its final breath just yet. This offering, together with the impending release of Ice Cube's new album, shows that there is still some hope out there...
...ideas that gangsta rap preaches, such as cop killing, are far from condonable, they are presented with such obvious showmanship that ultimately the music is simply a harmless, creative outlet. Although gangsta rap is clearly fading, there are still several bright spots remaining, one being the West Coast trio of Cypress Hill...
