RE: Hip Hop Legend Sen Dog of CYPRESS HILL on Censorship And The Monopolization of Cannabis in Canada!

in #news5 years ago

Dude these guys have done so much for cannabis activism. That song hits from the bong was released when cannabis was still very illegal. If you have seen what they have done in the early 90's for cannabis, I think your perception of Cyprus Hill will change.

Sort:  

I don't know their songs, or their history. Not because I dislike them... just because I don't know them :)
You're right, pushing the envelope is a form of activism. Even the simple message "you can use cannabis and still be an artist" was important back then (and even still now).


Have a look at this music video by my friend Disl. I find the music enjoyable, and the lyrics full of knowledge that can help inspire and educate activists like myself. Everybody's taste in music is different of course!

Right on! Also tbh I would not call myself a huge fan of cypress hill. But I remember when I was in DARE class I brought in the cd booklet from cypress hills album Bloody Sunday, since it had 21 facts about cannabis, taken from the book “the emperor wears no clothes “ by jack herer.

Facts about cannabis! See, there you go, that's solid activism too. So they're educators, and they helped normalize it! Respect.
Yeah Jack Herer was an amazing pioneer!

Hell yeah he was! Also one of my all time favorite strains as well! I’m actually thinking I should get a clone and grow it 🤠 hope you had a good 420, I saw the @girlsofgreendid.
