A genre-defying collaboration that unites legendary voices, proving the timeless power of music. Rock guitar legend Billy Morrison is set to make waves with two electrifying releases featuring hip-hop’s most iconic voices. On December 13, 2024, Morrison drops “Phenomenon”, his hard-hitting single and video collaboration with rap pioneers Cypress Hill, alongside the video release 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.
“Phenomenon” highlights Morrison’s longtime friendship and creative bond with Cypress Hill’s B-Real and Sen Dog. Recorded in Cypress Hill’s studio, the track blends Morrison’s signature guitar riffs with the unmistakable vocal power of the rap legends. The accompanying video takes it up a notch, featuring lasers, bouncing low riders, and the gritty West Coast energy that Cypress Hill is known for.
“When I got the call from Billy 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,” says B-REAL of Cypress Hill.
Meanwhile, Morrison’s video for “Just Like a Movie” captures the magic of his collaboration with DMC, a founding figure of hip hop and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee. Shot on the streets of Brooklyn, the video brings the track to life with its raw, cinematic visuals, paying homage to hip-hop’s roots and Morrison’s genre-blurring vision.
“Collaborating with Billy has been a very motivating experience. 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”, says DMC.
Fans of both rock & hip-hop can expect nothing but the best from these two releases. With Morrison’s unparalleled talent and the iconic voices of Cypress Hill and DMC, “Phenomenon” and “Just Like a Movie” are sure to make waves in the music industry. So mark your calendars for December 13, 2024, and get ready to experience the ultimate fusion of rock and rap. “Phenomenon” and “Just Like a Movie” are available now on all major streaming platforms.
