Hot97 remembers & Salutes the late great Big Pun for the annual Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York. It has been about 15 years since we lost the legendary rapper Christopher Rios who left an imprint on hip hop forever. The bronx rapper passed away from heart failure in 2000 and remains a love in everyone’s heart. Every year the people of New York look forward to the Puerto Rican Day Parade, what better way to spend the day then to the sounds of the best Puerto Rican rapper of all time .
