It became the first solo album by a Latin rapper to go platinum, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album, and still gets named among the great East Coast debuts. Pun died in 2000, which gives every verse here extra weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Still Not a Player\", the smooth, Joe-assisted remix that became his breakthrough, is the obvious hit, all summery swagger and effortless flow. \"Super Lyrical\" pairs him with Black Thought for a dizzying exchange of multisyllabic rhymes, \"Beware\" kicks things off with JuJu of the Beatnuts behind the boards, and \"Twinz\" teams him with Fat Joe for a Bronx victory lap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePun's gift was making the impossibly dense sound easy, packing internal rhymes into every bar without ever losing the pocket. Across two discs, the remastered sound gives his voice and the album's lush, soulful production room to hit hard, and it is a fitting tribute to one of hip-hop's most gifted technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761132437794,"sku":"196588103513","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Big_Pun-Capital_Punishment_25th_Anniversary_2LP.jpg?v=1794305854","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/big-pun-capital-punishment-25th-anniversary-2lp","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
