PUN Stay Strapped Like A Gatling Gun
» Published by be.
10 to 15 years ago, “Swag” wasn’t something that described how much charisma you had, it didn’t determine your style, demeanor or the presence that was felt when you stepped into a room. It stood for something else. It stood for, “Shit We All Get”. And gotdamnit I loved getting some S.W.A.G..
Just in time for TheMeaningOfDope’s first S.W.A.G. post, the good people at NahRight dropped an ad that Lil Wayne has done for J. Prince’s “Strapped Condoms”. We’re sorry Weezy, but nothing comes close to the promotional handouts for Big Pun’s debut, “Capital Punishment” that hit streets nearly 1 decade ago.
Street level marketing in Hip-Hop is nowhere near this hot anymore.
Quick fellas, that shit expires August 28, 2001!!

Pun’s marketing squad keepin’ the kids equipped for crushin’.
Stay tuned to TheMeaningOfDope for all the shit you’re supposed to love about this Hip-Hop shit.
Bringing shit back for the very first time.
