The Legacy: The Best Of Big Pun
$11.94
Rising out of the South Bronx Puerto Rican community, Big Pun was the first solo Latino hip hop artist to achieve platinum sales. Born Christopher Rios in 1971, he adapted the name Big Pun in the 1980s and, after honing his skills in New York City s underground rap scene, soon appeared on fellowartists The Beatnuts and Fat Joe s albums before achieving massive success as a solo artist.

With material drawn from two number one Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums as well as spoken word and sound-bytes from the acclaimed film, The Legacy, encompasses Big Pun s entire, albeit too-short, career and includes the hit singles I m Not A Player, Still Not A Player, 100% and It s So Hard. With this compilation, hip hop fans can once again nod their heads to the exquisite rhyme flow and lyrical debonair of a rapper in his prime and at the top of his game.

$13.97
It's been seven long years since Big Pun himself, Christopher Rios, died from a heart attack. The hip-hop community has been mourning since the news broke that fateful morning on February 7th, 2000. Still, the memory remains and J. Love immortalizes the Bronx heavyweight through a special collection entitled In Memory Of. The record highlights Big Pun's innovative edge as he dishes out entertaining flows through his signature spitfire-like style on multiple tracks including "How We Roll" and "Mama." J. Love adds a few exclusive remixes and even supplies a few of Pun's earlier hits with "100%" and "Twinz" featuring Fat Joe. Just like Big Pun and his music, In Memory Of is unforgettable.

If your from the BX, this is for you, if your from the Tri State area this is for you. If your from the era where you think LiL Wayne is one of the best of all time, well then this isn't for you. Put it this way only real hip hop people should get this. Big Pun was too nice, and could have been arguably the greatest of all time. Yet his time in the game was too short due to his death. I feel that you need to be a true fan of real hip hop when lyrics meant something. Right about now you have clowns like Jeezy and Wayne, Pitbull , Officer Rick Ross, Fifty bad scent, owning the waves with at best subpar music, but yet it's throwin into our ears as if it's great music. The present status of hip hop will no where ever be close to that decade of the 90's, early 2000's
