In Baseball its Lou Gehrig, in Basketball its Len Bias, in Football its Gerome Brown, these are athletes that tragically died before their prime; all were destined to do great things in each of their prospective sports however that ugly thing we call tragedy creeps up and stole them from us. In Hip Hop their are enough people to fill up Football stadium, but one individual that's special to me is Big Pun my 1st ever rap CD if anyone remembers what those are; was Capital Punishment and from that point on I was instantly hooked. Big Pun was amazing in my eyes more talented than Biggie and 2 Pac but just didn't quite have all the tools yet, however Big Pun was taken too soon well before he hit his prime. I have no doubt if he was still around today he have claims to greatest ever and the track I've chosen today is just a tad proof why. He's a not just a lyricist or lyrical genius or a lyrical assassins he's a lyrical Angel. In 12 Caribbean Connections" a song that is truly about nothing the title is confusing to regular dummies like me, the chorus is non existent, and the feature is not even named, and the beat is so so, but it doesn't matter because the holy water Pun lays upon your undeserving ears is completely worth all the other minor flaws. So just do yourself a favor just sit back and listen.
