Joe claims Pun used to write raps in his sleep

Fat Joe recounts the sharp writing skills of his late friend and Terror Squad member Big Pun. Recently speaking on Jay Shetty podcast, Joe revealed that Pun was far better than him at composing songs, even claiming he used to lay down bars in his sleep.

“He was so good. He was like a freak of nature, bro. He was a genius,” Joe shared. “He was so much better than me, like light years [ahead] of me. He actually taught me how to make hits, even though I discovered him.”

He continued, “He had that thing, narcolepsy or something, where he would fall asleep right on you. He would wake up and be like, ‘Pass me the book!’ He would have a whole song. He would write it in his sleep.

“I mean, this guy was phenomenal. From the first time I ever heard him I knew, like, ‘This guy is the greatest. He’s the best.’ It was another level.”
