Big Punisher featuring Norega – You Came Up

May 202010

Christopher Rios (November 9, 1971 – February 7, 2000), better known as Big Punisher or Big Pun, was a Puerto Rican-American rapper who emerged from the underground rap scene in The Bronx in the late 1990s. He first appeared on albums from The Beatnuts on the track “Off the Books” and on Fat Joe’s second album Jealous One’s Envy, on the track “Watch Out”, prior to signing to Loud Records as a solo artist.

Sometime during the 1980s, he formed the Full a Clips Crew with Triple Seis, Prospect and Cuban Link who was at the time named “Lyrical Assassin”. At this point Big Pun was operating under the alias Big Moon Dawg. Rios met fellow Puerto Rican and Bronx rapper Fat Joe in 1995 and made his commercial debut on Joe’s second album, Jealous Ones Envy, in addition to appearing on a b-side to Joe’s “Envy” single, “Fire Water” and “Watch Out.”
Later, “I’m Not a Player” (featuring an O’Jays sample) was supported by a significant advertising campaign and became an underground hit. The song’s remix, “Still Not a Player” (featuring Joe) produced by Knobody, became Big Pun’s first major mainstream hit. His full-length debut Capital Punishment followed in 1998, and was the first album by a solo Latino rapper to go platinum, peaking at #5 on the Billboard 200. Capital Punishment was also nominated for a Grammy, but lost out on the award to Jay-Z’s Vol. 2: Hard Knock Life. He became a member of Terror Squad, a New York-based group of rappers founded by Fat Joe, with most of the roster supplied by the now-defunct Full a Clips Crew who released their debut album The Album in 1999. In 1999 he co-starred in the Albert Pyun-directed ghetto-movie Urban Menace, alongside his frequent collaborator Fat Joe.

Stacie Joy Orrico (born March 3, 1986) is an American pop and R&B singer-songwriter and occasional actress. In 1998, she signed to ForeFront Records when she was 12 years old, and recorded her first album Genuine (2000), which sold 13,000 in the first week of release. The singles “Genuine” and “Everything” never charted on the Billboard Hot 100.

After her first album she signed to a new record label, Virgin Records, and started to record her self-titled album Stacie Orrico (2003). The album, which debuted at #59 on the Billboard Hot 200, was certified gold with over 500,000 sales in the U.S. The first single “Stuck” reached number #52 on Billboard Hot 100], but worldwide a bigger success. Her second single “(There’s Gotta Be) More to Life” debuted at #30 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her self-titled album has achieved sales worldwide of over 3.5 million. In the same year, she made her first television appearance as an actress in two episodes of American Dreams.

She lost her label ForeFront Records in 2005 after 7 years and decided to concentrate on her music career and began writing her third album, Beautiful Awakening (2006). The first single “I’m Not Missing You” was released in August 2006. The second single, “So Simple”, is the last single from her third album which never charted in the U.S.

She is currently working on her fourth studio album, which is due for release in mid-2010.

Early life
Stacie Orrico was born in Seattle, Washington to Italian-American parents. The family later moved to Denver, Colorado. Orrico is the middle child of five children; her siblings are Jesse, Rachel, Alicia, and Joshua. Both parents, Dean and Patti, loved to travel; requiring the family moved frequently. Orrico visited, among other places, Ukraine and Hawaii. At present (conditions: July 2008) Stacie lives in Seattle, Washington. She grew up influenced by a wide-range of musical styles and was a member in the church choir; ofttimes accompanying on the piano as the family sung Christian Hyms. At the age of 6 Stacie wrote her first song entitled ‘Always Answer’.

Stacie Orrico Album
After the first Genuine album,her next effort, the more mainstream and self-titled album Stacie Orrico, was released in 2003 and charted in the U.S. Billboard Top 200 (debuting at #67), Australian ARIAnet and the United Kingdom albums charts. The first mainstream single from this album was “Stuck”, which became a worldwide hit, reaching the Top 5 on the majority of the world’s charts. This was followed by the single “(There’s Gotta Be) More to Life”, widely considered to be written about her failed relationship with Matt Neth. “(There’s Gotta Be) More to Life” peaked in the Top 20 in Australia (#11) and the UK (#12), although, overall, “Stuck” charted better; the exception being in the US. This was then followed by “I Promise”, written by Arianna Burmeister and performed by Jack O’Hue and Stacie Orrico(top 30 in the UK), and the final mainstream single “I Could Be the One” (top 40 in the UK on June 2004). Both singles were given limited releases and limited promotion, meaning they did not fare as well as the first two singles. The last three singles were only released to Christian radio in addition to “Strong Enough”, which reached #1 as the CD’s very first single. Stacie Orrico sold over 500,000 copies in the U.S., enough sales for a Gold certification. The album also sold 600,000 in Japan and an estimated 3.4 million copies worldwide.

In 2004, Orrico’s songs “(There’s Gotta Be) More to Life” and “Stuck” appeared on the Barbie Hit Mix.

She was nominated in 2004 for the first time at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards in the categorie Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album, but has give the award to Michael W. Smith.

Etta James “At Last” performed by Beyonce in Cadillac Records

April 52010

Fans of musical dramas may experience some deja vu while watching “Cadillac Records”; the story is remarkably similar to one told in the middle of 2006’s “Dreamgirls,” in a montage set to “Steppin’ to the Bad Side.” There’s the plucky upstart studio where African-American musicians are pioneering new kinds of music. There’s the driven record-label owner who’s dispensing payola to deejays, trying to buy his way past institutionalized racism and cross over from the R&B ghetto to the white-dominated pop charts. There’s the white group that steals a black musician’s song and turns it into a hit single. There are lots of flashy new cars as symbols of success.

And above all, there’s the music, the motivator and the moneymaker, the one thing that heals all wounds—or at least in the case of the blues, expresses them.

In “Dreamgirls,” the sequence is a flashy, fictionalized amalgam of events from the Motown era. In “Cadillac Records,” it’s straight-up history. The film may also induce deja vu in longtime Chicago residents, because there’s a chance they lived through these stories, when South Side brothers Leonard and Phil Chess relaunched Aristocrat as Chess Records and started releasing albums by the likes of Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Bo Diddley, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, Howlin’ Wolf, Chuck Berry and many more. “Cadillac Records” shrugs off Phil Chess and the label’s early years in order to focus on Leonard, on some of the label’s biggest personalities and on the music they made.

The story starts in Chicago in the 1940s, with Chess ( Adrien Brody) as a young Polish immigrant promising his girlfriend’s father that he’ll transcend his poor origins: “Don’t worry where I’m from, my wife’s gonna drive a Cadillac.” That’s the closest the film comes to explaining Chess’ obsession with the cars, which he later dispenses to his successful recording artists like badges of honor. When Chess takes up with Muddy Waters (played with growling charisma by Jeffrey Wright, also recently seen as Colin Powell in “W.” and James Bond’s CIA buddy in “Quantum of Solace”), his label takes off, and he rapidly brings in talents such as Little Walter (Columbus Short), Berry ( Mos Def), Howlin’ Wolf (Eamonn Walker), and Etta James (executive producer Beyonce Knowles). But as the business comes together, his stars fall apart, sunk in various vices and deep-seated emotional issues. It’s almost as though singing the blues isn’t a cheery calling.

Those vices provide a bunch of riveting stories, including Berry’s arrest under the Mann Act and Little Walter’s public alcoholic meltdown. But they’re presented as a series of disjointed anecdotes, bookended by overripe narration from Cedric The Entertainer as Willie Dixon. Writer-director Darnell Martin leaves a lot of key issues dangling, particularly about Chess’ motives, and whether, as Waters repeatedly claims, he’s cheating his artists. Oscar-winner Brody (”The Pianist”) plays Chess as a guarded man who makes for a frail lead. He’s a shadowy background figure uncomfortably placed at center stage.

Fortunately, that stage is crowded with broader, more intense characters who keep the energy level high. In particular, Mos Def makes a terrific Berry, all flash and confidence, and Wright offers a memorably soulful take on Waters, whether he’s strutting, singing, suffering or all three. Walker’s Howlin’ Wolf is a deep-throated, pride-filled bear of a man who dominates the screen.

Between them, they offer portraits that sometimes veer toward caricature, but that fill out the film almost as well as its rich soundtrack.

“Cadillac Records” could use more music and less mugging—Knowles’ take on James in particular is only convincing when she’s singing, which is fitting from a woman whose acting skills come in a distant second to her voice. But after every misstep, the film finds its feet again during the exhilarating, sweaty Chess studio sessions, where the film’s cast covers songs from rock ‘n’ roll to electric blues to soul, from Waters’ “I Can’t Be Satisfied” to James’ “At Last.” Just as in real life, no matter what else is going on in these musicians’ lives, the music temporarily makes everything much better.

MPAA rating: R (for pervasive language and some sexuality).

Running time: 1:49.

Opening: Dec. 5.

Starring: Adrien Brody (Leonard Chess); Jeffrey Wright (Muddy Waters); Columbus Short (Little Walter); Mos Def (Chuck Berry); Beyonce Knowles (Etta James).

Directed and written by: Darnell Martin; edited by Peter C. Frank; photographed by Anastas N. Michos; music by Terence Blanchard; production design by Linda Burton; produced by Andrew Lack and Sofia Sondervan. A Sony Pictures release.
