The Legacy: The Best Of Big Pun  (Audio CD) 
by Big Pun

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.
