Background

This album is best known for its two singles: "Trouble" and "Lowrider". The song "Kronologik" also summarizes Cypress Hill's career from their debut in 1991 until the album was released. Many of its songs feature guest artists like MC Ren, King Tee, Redman and Method Man.

"Here Is Something You Can't Understand", is a sequel of their breakthrough single, "How I Could Just Kill a Man". "Lowrider" is also used on the British TV Series Soccer AM.

The album title was taken from the song of the same name from the group's third album Cypress Hill III: Temples of Boom, released in 1995.
