Yeeeah Baby
''Yeeeah Baby'' is the second solo and final studio album by rapper Big Pun. In the wake of Big Pun's death in February 2000, it was released in April of the same year as planned, peaked at #3 on the ''Billboard'' 200 charts selling 179,000 units during the week it was released,〔http://articles.latimes.com/2000/apr/13/entertainment/ca-18923〕 and subsequently was certified gold.〔(RIAA database search result ) (Accessed March 13, 2009)〕 Fat Joe, Pun's close friend and mentor, is the executive producer of the album.
Struggling with morbid obesity, Pun experienced breathing problems throughout the album’s recording process, slowing down his iconic flow. He died at 28 years of age, just two months before the album’s release.
==Background==
The album consist of two of Big Pun's biggest hits, the first single "It's So Hard" and the Puerto Rican anthem "100%". In the former song, he exclaims "Its hard work, baby. I just lost 100 pounds. I'm trying to live. I ain't going nowhere." Numerous critics mentioned this unfortunate irony.
In his last magazine interview, conducted by ''Industry Insider'' only a week before his death, Pun detailed that his approach on ''Yeeeah Baby'' was not as "hardcore" as his previous album ''Capital Punishment'', in an attempt to reach out to an even wider fanbase than his debut album already had.〔(News - Articles - 1425716 - 20000315 )〕 Despite this, while ''Yeeeah Baby'' received positive reviews from critics, it was not nearly as commercially successful as ''Capital Punishment''.
