Hip Today

Hip Today is the second and last single off Extreme's fourth studio album Waiting for the Punchline, released in 1995. It is the last single the band released before breaking up and reforming in 2007.

Although the song is, like the first single "Cynical", more grunge driven, it is one of the only songs on the record with some funk rock elements and influence.

As the band tried to fit into the grunge scene by changing their musical style, the album and the two singles released from it were commercial failures. After the song proved to be a failure in the charts as well, they disbanded. To date, it is their last single to chart in the UK at #44, barely missing the UK Top 40.
