Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Have you ever seen that guy perform live? God rest the dead, but he was 100% the product of studio mixing and magic. Guy had the breath control of a dying ferret. Couldn't say more than 3 words without gasping for air :patrice:
Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know that we riddled some middleman who didnt do diddily.

No breath control...:duck:

that was one bar... it's well known he had zero breath control... even joe spoke on this


joe said he would step in the booth.. take a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge breath... spit as much as he could before taking another one... then they back it up, start a new "track" on the pro tools, and he'd go from where he left off


kinda like cormega does it, except cormega overlaps his tracks.. where pun just cut his up to make you THINK he was doing it all in one take... meanwhile he needed a take every 1 or 2 bars

dude had known breathing problems and was over 400 pounds and died of being overweight.. but y'all think he had the best breath control ever in history of rap... come on now :stopitslime:

You can hear him taking breaths and shyt in his verses...

You sure you ain't a rican? They swear up and down that Pun had breath control and is like the first thing they bring up ...it's simply not the case.

me rican? I've never actually seen a Puerto Rican person in my life breh... we got Ese's out here in Oakland :dwillhuh:

lmao plenty of rappers don't spit a verse in one take aka punch in eminem 2pac jay-z nas etc

pun had great breath control a great technically sound mc imo also i love and hate these threads i love the fact that it exposes people that like to comment on the technical aspect of rapping that either don't rap or don't know about the technical aspects of rapping but yet want to act like they experts or some shyt on the subject but don't know what they fuuck talking about.

a few things

- he can't really make a goat list because he doesn't have that much material
- there's not a single rapper who can "shyt on him"...not a chance, he would either be on par or better with any rapper on any given track
- his second album doesn't count for much becacuse a) it was completely unfinished and b) he made it when his health was horrible

Yeah so....you have stated you are a CAC right. So #1, shut the fukk up, nothing you say matters. And #2, that was my point. He is the equivalent of a studio rapper. His "Skill" wasn't real because he actually couldn't rap any of the shyt he arguably wrote without 2 million takes and studio engineers splicing it. In other words, it didn't count. He wasn't actually a good rapper :camby:
