Wack 100 has “cleared the air” after claiming that Fat Joe robbed Big Pun’s estate of $4 million, clarifying that has no beef with the Terror Squad leader.
Wack went onto his favorite platform Clubhouse earlier this week and claimed to have viewed paperwork proving that Joe owes Big Pun’s family some serious cash, and that he’s been “blocking” them from receiving certain payouts.

Allegations of the “Lean Back” rapper stiffing Pun’s family out of money have circulated for years, with the former even going to court against Pun’s widow Liza Rios in 2016. The pair ultimately settled out of court after Rios filed a lawsuit seeking more than $1,000,000.
The late rapper’s widow said that she had struck a deal with Fat Joe to split earnings made by Big Pun following his death in 2000, but later claimed that she hadn’t received any payments from Joe since 2005.

There were a few discrepancies in Wack 100’s Clubhouse rant. The controversial rap manager claimed that Fat Joe “robbed” Pun’s family of $4 million, but then later referred to him withholding a “30 percent cut,” which amounts to $1.2 million.

“Yo, listen there’s a lot going on about this Big Pun situation,” Wack 100 said on Instagram Live. “I never had a conversation with Fat Joe about Big Pun or business with Big Pun. Last time I seen Fat Joe, we was at Prime 112, 25 deep, and he covered the whole bill. That’s Game’s friend. He been my friend.”
Wack went on to reaffirm that he has no issues with Joe, and that he just wanted to see Pun’s family get properly compensated, especially since a Big Pun TV series has just been “green-lit.”

“What I do know is, Big Pun’s wife came to see me, Liza. Told me she was looking for a situation that would be healthy for her,” he said. “Big Pun I feel like is part of the culture. His story needs to be told.
“So what I did do was line up a situation that was healthy for her. Something that would happen. I reached out to my people, my team, they pushed a button and they green-lit the project. So there’s definitely a Big Pun series coming.”
He continued: “As far as I’m concerned, he wanna see Pun win and his family win — the Fat Joe I know. Let’s kill that narrative. Fat Joe’s a friend of mine… Let’s kill the narrative that Wack stood up to Fat Joe.”
Wack 100’s comments come after N.O.R.E. claimed in a 2021 Drink Champs episode that Fat Joe simply wanted an apology from Big Pun’s family and has always treated the late rapper’s estate fairly.
Big Pun’s widow then hopped into the comments section of a Drink Champs clip and took aim at both N.O.R.E and Fat Joe.

“Joe want me to apologize to him for me going after what was rightfully my families!??” Rios proclaimed. “He is responsible for over 2.3 million in royalties that was never paid to Pun it’s all in the court papers! All public info!”
She continued: “@therealnoreaga I promise you if you passed away and who ever your signed to takes all the money that was rightfully yours and leaves your wife and kids with nothing and homeless you don’t think your wife is gonna fight for what is yours and your kids! Ask HER!! Please I seen your wife she won’t play that. Stop it Pun is looking at you crazy!”
Fat Joe responded in the comments section hours later to defend himself.
“Tellem about that money i got you when he died you spent it then put out that documentary you want holding pun down on that doc just say the truth I’ve always been 100 with pun and Nore knows that,” he wrote.
