Big Punisher

Real Name:
Christopher Lee Carlos Rios
Profile:
New York rapper who was down with Fat Joe and DITC. Often appeared under the name Big Pun. Big Punisher's career was just taking off when he was tragically struck down, at the tender age of 28, with a heart attack brought about by his serious weight problem. He is sorely missed within the world of hip-hop.

b. 10 Nov 1971, d. 7 Feb 2000.

Big Pun RIP.
