Throwback Thursdays: Heavy D

DateThursday, November 10, 2011 at 8:51AM

This week we lost rap legend Heavy D at age 44.  I remember watching his videos on Saturday mornings.  I remember buying Big Tyme on cassette.  Always a positive vibe and he wasn't afraid to throw in some good ol choreography with the rap routine.  You are missed, Dwight.

 

"I feel like Heavy D, I need somebody for me.  
Not someone who's mind is blank and tries to juice me for my bank"
