Today in Hip-Hop we celebrate the life and legacy of an all-time great, Christopher Rios—better known as Big Punisher. A certified New Yorker and a legendary emcee 🎤 A lyrical phenomenon from the BX, this Puerto Rican brother’s unmatched wordplay and rapid-fire flow took the rap world by storm.

From unforgettable classics like “Still Not a Player” to his contributions to Terror Squad, Pun’s impact goes way beyond bars—it’s cultural, it’s historic, and it’s forever.
