The Simpsons Have Done it Again, This Time With Cypress Hill

The Simpsons seem to have a well known knack of predicting the future, possibly from having such a back catalog of episodes, but their hit rate is pretty impressive. They’ve managed to supposedly predict everything from smart watches, the construction of the Shard in London, Lady Gaga performing the super bowl or perhaps most famously predicting back in 2000 Donald Trump running for President, even including his descent on the escalator. And they’ve done it again, this time with legendary rap group Cypress Hill

 In the 1996 episode “Homerpalooza,” Cypress Hill teamed up with the LSO when the orchestra showed up for their performance at Hullabalooza, a parody of Chicago’s Lollapalooza music festival. Watch a clip of the episode below.

Nearly 30 years after The Simpsons joked about Cypress Hill accidentally booking the London Symphony Orchestra while high, the hip-hop group is making it a reality. The Los Angeles collective has announced they will be joined by the 71-piece orchestra for a concert this summer.

Taking place at London’s Royal Albert Hall on July 10th, the show will feature Cypress Hill performing some of their biggest hits like “Insane in the Brain” and “I Wanna Get High” over orchestral arrangements conducted by LSO’s Troy Miller. It shouldn’t be much of an adjustment for the group, which performed a handful of concerts with the San Diego Symphony last year.

In a statement, Cypress Hill acknowledged as much by saying, “We are thrilled to be performing with the London Symphony Orchestra in such a prestigious venue as the Royal Albert Hall. It’s a dream come true, a collaboration only The Simpsons could have predicted.”
