Why is Big Pun so overlooked within Hip Hop?

Juju did Beware & Ghostface One

fukking ridiculous

TRUTH!

Just cooking classics quietly all the time. Dude is one of the illest and crazily slept-on.

No he wasn’t. He had a successful album, mainly single, but A list at that time was puff, mase, dmx, jay, he was not that.

Yes, he was the first Latin rapper to go plat and still didn’t influence anyone aside from the people on TS.

Stop.

Pun ruled all of everything.
when I don't wanna be a player remix dropped.

It was pun and no one else.

You talking after pun.
which is like almost two sonic landscape changes in that time period.

You can go back and get the first funk master major label album.
to hear how pun crushed everyone from funk flex.
In that pun was the last great new emcee in a dead year of 1995-1997.

Then a lull period between the original I am not a player. Which had another lull period till the remix.

I know you were not cognitive bout this. As i had to inform you.
of royal flush in the same tine envelope.

Just recently.

Im not talking about in terms of being in someone’s top 5 or even top 10 list but more so in terms of being mentioned and cited as an influence within Hip Hop altogether.

Admittedly he did had a bad rep as a person but he was still a very great lyricist and he was quite mainstream (his first album reached platinum) before he died.

Like everyone else is saying, He basically only had 1-2 years of being in the light. How much influence do you expect? plus his style was really an evolution of G Rap/AZ. If the had stayed alive longer, he prob would have had a bigger impact.

Pun was always nice with it. I still listen to his music like it just dropped. Even his mainstream songs had skill in it and wasn’t cheesy sounding.

Capital punishment is too damn long

 

[bigde09]

Damn man.

i remember when Joe talked about how he got him in the fat camp down in North Carolina and he was doing good at first but then folks start sneaking him food in and he gained the weight right back

crazy part is, Pun before all the weight gain, wasn't a fat guy.

He was probably depressed or something. That’s usually the case when someone blows up after being thin most of their life.

You need to stop assuming and dig in the crate.

Pun experienced weight gain from gaining a settlement. Where pun self admittedly.
engourged himself celebrating the victory.
where pun connected food to being affluent.

which resulted in pun, attaching a personal node.
to being overweight as success.

*met pun back stage.
when bon n nip opened for pun at house of blues.

 

[Art Barr]

Pun resembled a Puerto Rican carlton hines breh.
