Big Pup

Big Pup is a born and raised Houston, TX artist who is on the rise. Growing up in the 80’s in Houston he grew up in the era of hustlers, his father being a true hustler. Early on Big Pup learned the definition of getting it however you can by the life lessons taught to him by his father. Big Pup was born in 3rd Ward, but at the age of four his family moved to Missouri City in the Ridgemont/P.U.D. subdivision. In 1998 he was still penning songs and had acquired a decent library of music, and in 1999 his hard work and drive paid off because he recorded his first song and did his first feature. A childhood friend (Houston rapper, Z-Ro) heard one of Big Pup’s songs and was impressed which led Z-Ro to offer Big Pup a feature on his 5th album Welcome 2 Screwston (S.U.C. Representa) in 2002. He then catapulted his exposure as a Houston artist and in 2003 established his own label, P.U.D. Ent. He went on to record with the late great Big Hawk, Lil KeKe, Mr. 3-2, Trae The Truth, K-Rino., Dougie D, and many more underground artists.
