Muggs produced the whole thing, building dusty, menacing loops from funk and soul records that sounded nothing like the polished rap dominating the radio at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow I Could Just Kill a Man is the calling card, all nervy tension and B-Real's nasal, instantly recognizable delivery, with Sen Dog's gruff interjections landing like punctuation. Hand on the Pump loops a doo-wop sample into something gloriously sinister, Pigs takes aim at crooked cops, and Latin Lingo flips between English and Spanish with an ease that proudly announced the group's Latino roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is humor in the haze too, along with a sense of place rooted firmly in South Gate, California, that gave the record a personality all its own and made the trio instantly identifiable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a document of where West Coast hip-hop was heading, it remains hard to top, and the green wax suits it rather well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57269576139057,"sku":"194398751115","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Cypress_Hill-Cypress_Hill_30th_Anniversary_Edition_Green_UK_Import_150f79eb-45dc-412d-8e40-9e85acf11ac0.jpg?v=1793641721","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/cypress-hill-cypress-hill-30th-anniversary-edition-green-uk-import","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
