Cypress Hill say that Kendrick, Drake and A$ap take it to the next Level

[MINT]

“It’s great to see Kendrick, A$AP, Drake and the Maybach guys doing their own thing but having a mutual pride and respect for the art. We need the balance of the Pop and the underground, because for us- it was us and the Beastie Boys on the underground and Will Smith on the Pop side of things, but you need that- you need those variations. I feel like if you look hard enough there’s some good music out there- some really talented amazing kids making quality music”.

What new artists will take music to that next level?
I think Kendrick Lamar. He defines the idea of going back to an album and not a song. Drake. Anybody can say anything they want about Drake but he's a hell of a songwriter. He understands how to put the shyt in format of songs. I think he's dope. Those two have a gift. I tell people man, ASAP Rocky. When you listen to him and you look at him… I have a song called "Hip Hop" on the mixtape, and when I'm looking at these dudes, I'm going to ASAP's show and it reminds me of an old Wu-Tang Show. It's just different and high energy.
