He is the youngest of 3 children. And his father is called Big Pun. Who died when he was just 6 years old. His mother was Big Pun’s wife called Liza Rios. He grew up in Bronx, New York. And he grew up basically with a father in the public eye becoming successful. He began pursuing a hip hop career at the age of 8 years old. When it comes to having a dad like Big Pun. And you decide to make music. People will look to compare to see what type of music that you will make. Especially if it’s father and son. He is currently 31 years old almost 32 years old.
When you have famous parents. People will see you as the person that is related to someone and that can be difficult to break through from. You have to make sure that you can move away from that. And many people cannot do that. They can’t move away. And that’s why you will see some people say. The reason why that you’re successful it’s because of the fact that they have famous parents. However, just because you have someone famous. It doesn’t mean that he will become a famous rapper. Especially now. People don’t always take rappers’ children seriously. They feel like they are spoiled they don’t think well for them.
Chris Rivers began his music career in 2002. He was a member of the group called 3down. It had people like himself and also Ray Ray (Benzino’s son), and Lil James. Being in a group can be a good idea. When you’re trying to make a name for yourself. And he also featured Benzino’s son. Which is good. Because then people can learn about people that have famous parents. What type of music they could be creating together. They then went their own separate ways. This didn’t last. It would have been interesting if they continued. What type of sound that they would be creating.
Chris Rivers did a freestyle with Sway. And he has been praised when it comes to his unique bars. It has over 3 million views. And people were impressed with what he was saying. His father is Big Pun. It’s quite obvious that he grew up with old school rap. The supporters were praising and said that he did a good job. He has his own flow and sound. The type of music that his father grew up in. He had to make sure that he has his own sound. He could have been inspired by the music. You can hear the old school music from it. He is also a millennial. So there is that difference when it comes to it.
He has a YouTube channel and has showcased videos of himself doing reviews. And even releasing his own music. He has 52 thousand subscribers. His supporters can keep up with him. And they can see what he has been working for a long time. He is consistent when it comes to uploading videos. There are some people when they are starting their own music careers. They still like to upload videos of himself doing reviews. Or any other random things. A good example people like DDG they do their own thing and also do music. In this day and age. The sky is the limit. And there are so many good things that they could be doing.
He was mainly known as Baby Pun. But then he changed it to Chris Rivers. This is good when it comes to marketing. However, you want people to see your music for you. And you don’t want the constant comparisons. Because then you can’t move away when it comes to your father’s shadow. You can do that at the beginning. And after that you have made a name for yourself. And then you can use your real name. The music industry is tough when it comes to making a name for yourself. So if you can find certain loopholes that can work for you then do it.
This is who he has collaborated with: Chris Rivers has had collaborations with various artists including Wu Tang Clan, The Lox, Termanology, Tony Sunshine, Vinnie Paz, Chino XL, Joell Ortiz, Canibus, and Cormega. This is someone that is serious when it comes to the music industry and wants to make sure that he has created a lane for himself. And this works out for him. Doing your own thing. Can be really hard. How do you do it. Collaborating with artists can be really helpful. But in our opinion a lot of artists don’t have the chance to be mainstream. Because music moves on very quickly.
Chris Rivers talked about being poor and homeless. Despite being the son of Big Pun. This is something that people can be really shocked. And they may not expect. Because of who he is related to. But this is possible. When it comes to being related to someone popular. The music industry is a dirty game. And if before things are not in order. Then this can affect other people. There are a lot of greedy people in the music industry. And Big Pun is a successful rapper so people would want to take advantage. And the music industry people will assume that people related to people that are famous are always rich.
And that’s not always the case. And also he has talked about people trying to be friends with him because of the fact that who his father was. The time that his father passed away. People in his school didn’t really know who he was. And he was only 6 years old when he passed away. 6 year olds may not know when it comes to who Big Pun is because they are still children. However, their parents may know who he is. And that could attract attention. So many things can happen when you’re related to a celebrity. There are some good things that can happen.
However, there is a lot of negativity that can happen. You always have to make sure that you watch your back and you’re being careful.
