    I’m a millennial and I’ve never heard of Cypress Hill. Looks like it’s more of an American thing after I looked it up.

      I’m a millennial metalhead from Switzerland, and I have heard of them, listened to them quite a lot years ago.

      I guess it depends on multiple factors, not just the continent.

        Whether or not you’re into dope, I guess.

        Edit: Apparently not. In my area (not US either), Cypress Hill was very popular among skaters and potheads primarily.

          Nope, I’m not and was not.

          Edit for your edit: I definitely see what you mean, I mean with these lyrics xD. I can enjoy their music anyway. During the time I listened to them more actively, I haven’t even tried it once yet.

        Idk, I’m not really into pop, hip hop, etc. and I also get the feeling that they weren’t as big here in the Netherlands as they were in the states. I’m also very much on the young end of the “millennial” range. I’ve just listened some of their stuff, and I recognise some of it vaguely. But definitely not enough not remember their name.

      I’m gen z and I’ve never heard of him but in also not american either and I’m glad I’m not because there is something deeply wrong with america that contradicts human rights and equality
