A Muso's Top 10: Muggs (Cypress Hill)

All The Skinny had to do was ask Cypress Hill's production guru Muggs what he'd been up to, and we chewed off a little more than we bargained for...

"Just because I ain't all over MTV all fuckin' day homie, don't mean I'm not doin' this shit. I came into it when it was an underground subculture, now it is the optimum form of pop culture. They've watered it down just like they watered down punk rock into new wave, to make it digestible."

With that lot out of his system, Muggs delivered ten tunes, straight from the playlist on his car stereo...

1. Al Green - Love & Happiness
2. Jimi Hendrix - Machine Gun
3. Self Scientific - Tears
4. Grease - Picture Me
5. Ice Cube - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
6. Young Jeezy - Trapster (She Likes)
7. Dilated Peoples - Suckers Are Hidin
8. Mitchy Slick - I Know
9. Damon Marley - Welcome to Jamrock
10. Mars Ill - Redefine

Besides putting the finishing touches to 'Soul Assassins: III' (due in early 2007), Muggs' Angeles Records has just released a new LP by his newest protege, Mitchy Slick.
