BEFORE BIG PUN would drop the lyrics: ‘I’m Not a Player I just F**K A Lot’
Before BIG PUNISHER would team up with other artists including Fat Joe, Jennifer Lopez & Busta Rhymes.
Before Big Pun broke sale records becoming the first solo Latino performer to ever go platinum in Hip Hop.
Before BIG PUN’s struggle with weight gain had him balloon up to almost 700 pounds after at one time where he only weighed 180.
Before BIG PUN would collapse in front of his family at a hotel in New York at the age of just 28.

Raised in the Bronx by Puerto Rican parents who struggled with drug abuse, Christopher Lee Rios left home and dropped out of high school at 15, he was not only homeless at this time but also a young father. He picked up an interest in breakdancing and rapping and was actually the school quite athlete. He married his high school sweetheart and with money hard to come by and a baby to feed he turned to food to help cope with the pressures of life. Throughout this he would continue to focus on his musical interests and developed for himself a unique flow and would often showcase his Puerto Rican pride, and killer sense of humour. His talent was soon discovered by fellow Bronx rapper Fat Joe. The duo was larger than life and Big Pun found success quickly not only within the Latino community but throughout America. But the pressures of fame and access to money only fuelled his food addiction and his weight sky-rocketed to a point where Fat Joe had to call him out on it & when a guy known as Fat Joe is checking you about your weight you know things are serious.

My name is Michael McCrudden documenting the life and career of Big Pun, before his passing, here for you on Before They Were Dead.
