Cypress Hill shared their version of “Fuck Tha Police” via their remix of Argentine star Trueno’s “Fuck el Police.”
Trueno’s version interpolates and samples the 1988 original, and was released in 2022. Cypress Hill's new version with Trueno was released in celebration of Hip-Hop's 50th.
“Bringing Cypress Hill on for ‘Fuck el Police’ was so important for me, given the style of the song,” Trueno told Rolling Stone on Tuesday (July 25). “Of course, it has a lot of history with N.W.A and ‘Fuck tha Police’… The flow of the song, for me it [felt] very much Cypress Hill, and it was important for me to raise a fist and bring this message to the Latin side as well, the reality that we go through.”
