‘N Sync Can’t Top Cypress Hill in L.A.
- Share via
‘N Sync may rule the national charts, but when South Gate-spawned Cypress Hill hits the stores, the rap group’s home turf responds. “Skull & Bones,” which includes the radio hit “Rock (Superstar),” debuts at No. 1 on the new Southern California sales chart. Another artist who made his name in L.A., Neil Young, came up just short of the Top 10 with his new “Silver & Gold,” ranking No. 12 in the region. The album is No. 22 nationally.
