Rap and Heavy Metal don’t have much in common but when Cypress Hill came on the scene they did their best to mix the two as best as possible. The results led the way for bands like Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock. Ugh.
Anyway, here is your chance to win an autograph from Cypress Hill’s B-Real and 80’s rock vixen, Lita Ford. You can check out pictures of Lita in her prime by clicking HERE.
To enter this contest simply leave a comment with your all-time favorite rap song and your all-time favorite rock video from back in the days when MTV still played music.
