The Terror Squad - Definition and Overview

The Terror Squad is a Latino Rap crew from The Bronx, New York that is also known as Big Pun and Fat Joe's crew. The members were Fat Joe, the late and great Big Pun, Cuban Link, Prospect, Armageddeon, Triple Seis, Tony Sunshine and Remy Martin. They released their self titled debut album in Terror Squad The Album in 1999 with their hit "What Cha Gon Do" which was mostly done by Big Pun. Fat Joe and Big Pun were the members in the crew who had the most successful solo spots, Remy Martin was the only female rapper in the group, and Tony Sunshine was famous for singing on all the Terror Squad songs.

Tragedy struck the crew when Big Pun died of a heart attack in 2000. Cuban Link and Triple Seis left the group after Big Pun's death but Fat Joe, Remy, Tony Sunshine, Prospect and Armageddeon remained and released their second album True Story in 2004 with the summer hit "Lean Back" produced by Dr. Dre associate (and former keyboardist for The Roots), Scott Storch which went #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #24 in the UK.
