Capital Punishment 1998 Album

Big Pun

The best on this are among my favourite in the genre. Pun's fantastic rhymes with his brilliant skill over darkly themed beats like those on 'You Ain't a Killer' and 'Capital Punishment' are superb. The skills shown on other songs like 'Boomerang' and the cover, 'Twinz', are rare, and even when he is spitting over poppy beats, like 'Still Not a Player', he doesn't let up and entertains. The beats on this aren't fantastic overall and the skits would've been a pain in the non-digital age but there isn't anything poor here. A must listen for hip hop fans. Beats: ★★★★ Rapping/Bars: ★★★★★ Hooks: ★★★★ Best Tracks: Beware, You Ain't a Killer, Boomerang, Capital Punishment, The Dream Shatterer
