Earlier this week Dubcnn featured an interview with Mellow Man Ace – if you missed that then ensure you check it now – Exclusive Interview With Mellow Man Ace.
The interview caused another legend to contact Dubcnn to make a statement to clear up some of the information in the interview and the Dubcnn introduction. B-Real – of Cypress Hill, who is currently working on his solo album “Smoke N Mirrors” due for release on February 24th 2009 contacted Dubcnn to make the following statement.
“To clear up a little bit of this information here, Mellow was never a part of Cypress Hill. When Mellow’s first record came out, Cypress Hill had barely been formed. We were all a crew together, but there was never any direction for a group. When Mellow got in the door, we had already met Muggs, and then we started working on demos.
So when he said something about “his decision to leave Cypress Hill,” there was no Cypress Hill to leave at the time. Clearly, Cypress Hill got signed in 1990, and his first record was in 1988. I think he’s maybe a little bit confused about that.
As far as his contribution to my solo record, he was definitely involved in the beginning process. I give him credit for that. I value his opinion as an artist. But as far as the new Cypress record goes, that a very formulated thing between me, Sen Dog, and Muggs. That process is between the three of us, and he was never really involved in that. I read the interview he just released, and I was taken aback by some of the information in it, so I thought I would clear it up. I’ve got love for Mellow, he’s my family, and I wish him luck on everything.”
