Cypress Hill make 28-year-old Simpsons joke come true

Written by on July 13, 2024

Cypress Hill brought a 28-year-old joke from The Simpsons to life by performing with the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) at the Royal Albert Hall. This collaboration, inspired by a 1996 episode where the band mistakenly booked the LSO while under the influence, was realized after fan pressure and social media outreach. The one-night event featured orchestral arrangements of songs from their acclaimed “Black Sunday” album, including hits like “Insane in the Brain” and “I Wanna Get High.”

B-Real, a member of Cypress Hill, expressed the significance of this performance, especially on the heels of their 30th anniversary for “Black Sunday.” The event marks a milestone for the band, known for their experimental approach to music. The LSO’s Maxine Kwok noted the excitement and cultural significance of this unique collaboration. The performance also highlighted the show’s history of predicting real-life events.
