Just moments ago, it was announced that Cypress Hill is the latest Hip-Hop act headed to the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. The group formed by B-Real, DJ Muggs, and Sen Dog (that has since added percussionist Eric Bobo) once made an anthem about what it takes to be a “Superstar.” Now they will be immortalized on Hollywood Boulevard. It is just miles from South Gate, where the collective formed nearly 30 years ago. In this achievement, Cypress becomes the first Latino Hip-Hop group with this distinction. They will join solo artist Pitbull who received his star five years ago.
According to a press release by the Hollywood Chamber Of Commerce, Xzibit and actor/comedian George Lopez will speak at the April 18 unveiling ceremony. The boulevard ceremony will take place out at 11:30 am PST next Thursday, out front of the Green Leaf Restaurant in Eastown. Cypress Hill will also be performing the same night at the Whiskey A Go Go in Hollywood.
