City Council Votes Down Big Pun's Intersection - AllHipHop

City Council Votes Down Big Pun’s Intersection

A City Council committee has voted against a measure that would have named a Bronx intersection after Christoper "Big Pun" Rios because of their discomfort over his lyrics. Fans of Big Pun collected over 7,000 signatures, requesting to rename the intersection of 163rd and Rogers Place in the Morrisania section of the Bronx, to be renamed after the Hip-Hop artist. Big Pun died of a heart attack when he was 28 years old. Big Punisher was the first Latino Hip-Hop artist to go platinum.
