How dare you do this to Cypress Hill, Hollywood Walk of Fame
West Coast hip-hop legends Cypress Hill finally made it to the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday -- two days too early, in the minds of some.
The plaque was formally presented on Thursday, April 18, 2019. But everyone knows that Cypress Hill is synonymous with marijuana. Couldn't whoever constructed the plaque have waited two days to present it on 4/20, the biggest marijuana holiday of the year?
Cypress Hill is known for their many excellent pro-weed jams, including "Hits From the Bong" and the subtly titled, "I Want to Get High."
The group is also active in the legal marijuana industry. B-Real, the group's frontman, is the owner of a dispensary in Los Angeles known as Dr. Greenthumb. The group sells their own brand of cannabis known as "Cypress Hill Bhang."
B-Real has thanked marijuana for the group's continued success.
“We’re medicating,” B-Real recently said. “We’re eating clean. We stay in the gym. We never did party too excessively. We party, but it’s not every night and we’re not drunk and sloppy. Weed was the answer for us.
It might say 4/18 on that plaque, Cypress Hill, but it will always say 4/20 in our hearts.
