It was back in 1996 when an episode of The Simpsons featured a joke where Cypress Hill believed they had mistakenly booked the London Symphony Orchestra, whilst under the influence.

That joke will become a reality at the Royal Albert Hall.

After years of fan pressure, the American hip-hop group reached out to the London Symphony Orchestra over social media and a deal was struck.

The one-night only performance in London is based around their acclaimed Black Sunday album which sold more than three million copies in the US and spent a whole year on the UK charts.

The London Symphony Orchestra will perform unique orchestral arrangements of the band’s most iconic songs including Insane in the Brain and I Wanna Get High.

Cypress Hill have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and are one of hip-hop’s biggest acts.
