Big Punisher

 Well known in the underground rap circuit is Christopher Rios also known as Big Punisher found great success through his ability to flow. Pun possessed skills unmatched by any emcee of his time. His divine use of multi syllable words, tongues twisting vocabulary and raw, fluid like delivery made him a force to be wrecking with. Many critics considered him the combination of Biggie and Pac.
            Punisher grew up as a young arrogant Puerto Rican youth with an incredible talent for rhyming. Pun found it difficult to fit in with the people in his neighborhood, which was predominantly African American. Throughout the course of a rough childhood and many obstacles Chris kept his head high and refused to back down from any challenge, battling in numerous places and earning respect.
            Big Pun suffered from obesity for many years. Once reaching a total weight of 701 pounds.  Throughout adolescence into teen hood he was a physically fit individual and always participating in sports. Later into what had become an amazing short-lived career he lost his battle and eventually passed away. Puns death was a catastrophic blow to the Hip Hop industry and was felt across the nation. His death coming as a result of natural causes not violence marked a day that will never be forgotten by Pun fans.

  1. It is obvious that your a reader from your vocabulary and Im impressed at your ability to tell a story and keep a reader interested. Keep this up!

    My only suggestion is to add information on what his life was like once he reached fame and what about him appealed to you as a rapper.
