Nov 10, 2011 would have been the 40th birthday of Bronx native, Big Punisher. Still loved & respected by many, he was a pioneer as Capital Punishment became the first album by a solo Latino rapper to go platinum,peaking at #5 on the Billboard 200.
Pun's lyrics are notable for technical efficiency, having minimal pauses to take a breath, heavy use of alliteration as well as internal and multi-syllabic rhyming schemes.
