Summary: classic
Comment: For those that have slept on his talent, it's time to wake up. I wouldn't say this is the most under-rated album of the mid to late nineties but it's pretty close. I haven't seen one person with a Pun CD outside of the east coast. It's a shame though, this CD is very good.

Summary: Bam Bam Spider Man go down.........
Comment: With that intro a BIG force to be reckoned wit came on da scene BIG PUNISHER!!! Im Just gon go thru da traccz aight so bear wit me cuz this hotter than fish greaze in a room wit no windowz in da middle of 100+ degree heat. (im skippin da skits which unfortunately there are a lot of)

Beware - just that an introduction to the blazin style of Pun.
Super Lyrical - a hot joint wit Blacc Thought(The Roots), good use of Biggie and Roccy samples.
Still Not A Player - Yall seen the video. Features Joe and is a remix of Joes I Dont Wanna Be A Player(Booty Call Sdtk.) and Puns Im Not A Player(on this cd).
The Dream Shatterer - One Of Puns best.
Punish Me - One of my favorites, miss jones on da hook.
You Aint A Killer - Hot Grimy shhhhhh.
Carribean Connection - Blazin even Wyclef comes off.
Glamour Life - Terror Squad tracc, above average.
Capital Punishment - Kind of weak but Pun comez off.
Im Not A Player - One of da best player songs.
Twinz(Deep Cover '98) - Good remake, includez Puns "dead in da middle of lil..." tonge twister
The Rain & The Sun - Not a song but dead prez and Pun colaborate on a great but much too short interlude.
Boomerang - Another Decent tracc.
You Came Up - Good Colabo wit NORE.
Tres Leches(Triboro Trilogy) - Lyrical murder. Prodigy(mobb deep) & Inspectah Decc(wu tang) assist.
Fast Money - Half way decent tracc.
Parental Discretion - Only real filler. n whatz up wit busta????

Summary: Underrated
Comment: After the death of Big Pun, I heard many people on TV praissing Pun on what a good lyracist he was. I figured that this was more people paying respects to their deceased friend, which they welcome to do. I mostly bough this record out of interest, and boy was I shocked!!!
Boogie down give Pun some ominous Wu-Tang sounding beats, to spit his rapid-fire flow over. If you were expecting a whole album of Don't wanna be a Player, you're gonna be disappointed. Pun is an old school lyricist. He not a complex as a Nas or Talib Kweli, but has the knack for rhyming 5 or 6 words in a bar. Although, he does drop some science on the commercial/ R&B sounding Come Back To Me. While most rapper use this as a chance to delve into lyrical simplicity, Pun drops some nice lyrics about a father son relationship broken by a jealous girlfriend. Other highlight are Glamour Life (were Cuban Link steals the show from even Pun), U Came Up (maybe the best on the Disc), Super Lyrical (with the underrated Black Thought) and U Ain't a killer (with a killer piano loop). Though the last few tracks are solid, they don't live up to the standard set by the rest of the album.
Not only is the production masterful, but so is Pun. Theirs a feel that he freestyled the whole album. Like all the greats, he can seem effortless without it looking like he's just bored. This is one of the best albums I've purchased, and I would highly recommend it.

Summary: Great, miss him
Comment: I would've given this 4 stars but since he put a collabration with Wyclef it gives 5 stars. Most of this is pretty cool. I had earler heard Twinz, I'm Not A Player and You Came Up which had all convinced me to buy this. If you're a REAL hip-hop fan by this.

Lyrics-- 3.5 of 5. He has a good sense of humor and sometimes the lyrics just need a little more imagery for yourselves

Guests-- 5 of 5. Everyone you need basically.

We will all remember him. there is a flaw with his follow-up. Incomplete. But there's still the Terror Squad for y'all. not jay-z but still great. RIP Big Pun-- review

Summary: We miss u Pun
Comment: I won't front when I first got this album 2 years ago the only song I listen 2 was "still not a player & Twinz". It not that I didn't like the album it was I was still stuck on the puff daddy beats. Later that year I realize how lyrics is what made a rapper great. So I gave the album another chance & I realize Big Pun wasn't a good rapper he was a Great rapper. In songs like "Beware, Fast money, Parental Discretion, U came up, and the best track that display Puns skills "The Dream Shatterer" Pun keep your hand on the rewind button. Every track on this album is hot. It pure underground hip hop with hot beats & lyrics. Pun second & last album wasn't good as this album so if u thinking bout the 2 get the debut album.


Editorial Reviews:

In the beginning, hip-hop's heavyweights were relegated to the role of class clown--what with fat guys being jolly and all. But in the mid '90s, artists of a certain heft broke free of that stereotype and asserted themselves as powerful in both muscle and mind. On this much-anticipated full-length debut, Christopher "Big Punisher" Rios shows he's capable of competing in both arenas, waxing as intelligent as can be on rhymes like "Super Lyrical" (where he's joined by the Roots' always provocative Black Thought) and "Parental Discretion" (a duet with Busta Rhymes). Big Pun's hit "Still Not a Player" is, of course, included here, and while its nasty Bronx groove sets the tone for much of the 24-song set, the big man also pays his respects to the Big Apple's other boroughs on "Tres Leches (Triboro Trilogy"). He even sets sail for the islands--accompanied by Fugee frontman Wyclef Jean--on "Caribbean Connection." One of the most ambitious hip-hop debuts in years. --David Sprague
