Billy Morrison Teams Up With Cypress Hill And DMC

Guitarist Billy Morrison has announced an electrifying collaboration that is set to resonate with Heavy Metal fans and music enthusiasts worldwide. Joining forces with hip-hop legends Cypress Hill and DMC of Run-DMC, Morrison has delivered a dual-track release featuring the songs Phenomenon and Just Like A Movie.

Phenomenon is poised to captivate listeners with its high-octane riffs and lyrical punch. “When I got the call from Billy,” B-REAL of Cypress Hill said, “I was excited about this collaboration. We’ve known each other for many years, shared many stages and we built up a friendship and chemistry throughout the years. So when the call came, I was in! It was killer being able to work on this project and we are stoked with how the track and the video came out.”

Billy Morrison also released the video for Just Like a Movie, his explosive track from The Morrison Project—a bold fusion of rock and hip-hop that celebrates the power of legendary artistry, featuring the legendary rapper DMC of Run-DMC.

“Collaborating with Billy has been a very motivating experience,” DMC said. “I’ve performed with him many times, and he’s a great musician, musical director, and teacher. I was a little nervous when he asked me to be on a song for his new album.”

“Working with Cypress Hill & DMC has been a dream come true,” Morrison said. “They’re not just friends but legends who shaped hip-hop. Their energy made these songs unforgettable, breaking barriers with timeless music.”

This powerhouse partnership bridges the vibrant worlds of Heavy Metal and hip-hop, showcasing a fusion of genres that promises innovation and energy. Morrison’s history of pushing musical boundaries aligns seamlessly with the bold artistry of Cypress Hill and DMC, making this collaboration a match destined for the spotlight.

Phenomenon and Just Like a Movie are available now on all major streaming platforms. Both tracks will be featured on a special double A-side vinyl release set to drop in 2025.
