The Overweight Lover Heavy D! How come I never hear people give props to Heavy D? He was dope. I loved how he fused hip hop, house and dance music. "somebody for me" was the joint. He had a few really cool jamz. Anyone else dig Heavy D?? | |

Made no damn sense. Right???? I've seen him since he lost some weight and I prefer him big. . . as long as he can still bust a move.
It's a damn shame that people don't really dance anymore. I remember going to high school dances sporting my polka dot outfits, with my homegirls (in matching outfits OF COURSE ) and doing the exact choreography in this video, as well as, Kid N' Play's, and MC Hammer's (Let's Get it Started is a classic!). We would be so sweaty and musty after the dance, but everybody was, so it was cool. LOL!!! Oooooh, those were the days!  | |

Even though music of that era was sort of the beginning of the end, there was still culture, soul, and room for everything. I feel sorry for munchkins today. | |

Get any of those first four Heavy D & The Boyz albums that I posted the covers of (above) that range from 1987-1993. A greatest hits would probably be great too! dancerella said: how come he never gets mentioned in hip hop?? he should be honored this year on VH1!!
"Fun" rap is rarely acknowledged. Outside of that, looking back it is difficult to pinpoint exactly what Heavy D pioneered except helping rap to blow up which isn't celebrated although I think it should be in certain cases like Heavy D. .. [Edited 3/1/08 11:42am] | |

His first album is my favorite. Really, the first 4 albums all had smash hits on them. Heavy Hitz is an aptly titled best-of compilation! | |
