It was originally released as a double A-side with its standard rap counterpart on February 29, 2000 in the UK. An individual release was available starting sometime in April. Background and composition Sony executive Donnie Ienner suggested adding guitars, which took the song "to a new level." Cypress Hill put the song into both the hip-hop and alternative markets, because they had fans in both places.Cypress Hill - (Rock) Superstar (Live Footnotes) The song features Deftones' Chino Moreno in the spoken word intro. Music video Dean Karr directed the music video for the song. The song's music video is very similar to the previous single, "(Rap) Superstar", with the man picking up a ticket that says "Rock Superstar" on it. After giving the ticket to Sen Dog, the man enters into a fun house. A group of women dress up the man in a suit before he wanders off. After seeing a testimony from Everlast on a TV screen, the man encounters many record executives. At the video's climax, he is chased out after going to a performance by Cypress Hill. As the man exits the fun house, it blows up behind him.YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4VpE-0zitU Cypress Hill - (Rock) Superstar May 23, 2014 Coal Chamber bassist Nadja Peulen appears in a cameo as the bass player of the band performing at the song's climax.http://nadjapeulen.com/galleries/481/cypress-hill-rock-superstar-2/ Cypress Hill Rock Superstar - Gallery 2015-09-19 2018-10-05 https://web.archive.org/web/20181005193600/http://nadjapeulen.com/galleries/481/cypress-hill-rock-superstar-2/ dead https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/former-coal-chamber-bassist-ex-guns-n-roses-guitarist-guest-in-cypress-hill-video/ Former COAL CHAMBER Bassist, Ex-GUNS N' ROSES Guitarist Guest In CYPRESS HILL Video March 6, 2004 BLABBERMOUTH.NET Use in other media The song is featured in the 2001 film Training Day.IMDb https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139654/soundtrack Training Day (2001) - Soundtracks May 23, 2014 It was also in the film Little Nicky.
