Cuban Link was signed to Atlantic Records and began recording his debut album 24K . Big Pun died on February 7, 2000, so Link wrote single "Flowers for the Dead" in Pun's honor. However, without Pun's mediation, contract disputes between Fat Joe and Cuban Link and leaks prevented the release of 24K .cite news|url= http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1459811/20030203/cuban_link.jhtml|title=Cuban Link|last=Reid|first=Shaheem|date=2003-02-03|work=Mixtape Mondays|publisher=MTV News|accessdate=2009-06-23

In April 2001, during an album release party for Angie Martinez at Jimmy's Bronx Cafe, Cuban Link got in an altercation and had his face slashed when he was trying to break up a fight between Fat Joe and rapper Sunkiss. By that time, Cuban Link left Terror Squad. He released a mixtape, Broken Chains , in 2003 put together by DrenStarr & Roy P. Perez© . He joined independent label Men of Business in 2005 and released album Chain Reaction . It included singles "Sugar Daddy" (featuring Mưa ) and "Scandalous" (featuring Don Omar ) and combined some reggaeton sound as well.cite web|url=Allmusic|class=album|id=r787786|pure_url=yes|title=Chain Reaction > Overview|last=Gutierrez|first=Evan C.|date=2005-08-16|publisher=allmusic|accessdate=2009-06-24
