Well, I bought one of his albums about 20 years ago.. if he's been making albums recently, I'm guessing they're not doing very well.

R.I.P. Heavy D!

Was it Geese or Rugal?

WHITE PEOPLE PROBLEMS

They aren't doing the watusi, vector calculus, eating boulders and being mauve either.

Thanks for letting us know.

who?

He was a musician? Did he play country or western?

Apparently, this one time, he found love and didn't know what to do with it.

Heavy.....

He was the black dude on Special Victims Unit, right?

I knew he was a rapper, but honestly, I knew of him more from his continuous yet random presence on all the "black" sitcoms from the 90's....Fresh Prince, Living Single, the Cosby spin off at college, etc...seemed he was on a different one every week, playing the same basic character....sorry for his friends and family though...

I loved that one song, Heavy Heavy Heavy can't you see something something Hypnotize me

He was in all things, a very nice guy, well respected and knew how to carry himself.

I prefer Fix My Sink

now that we've dug a grave
what are we gonna do
with it

SnakeLee: He made a reggae album kind of recently that got really good reviews but it's actually pretty corny. I think it won a grammy though.

Also, if anybody is having a "get off my lawn" moment for Heavy D, they better be at least 75 years old.


He played the Dad on the Cosby Show, right?

Heavy D was from Mount Vernon - also home to Denzel. It's a predominantly black town now, but when I was a kid there were 25,000 whites and 25,000 blacks and no racial trouble. Of course there were some problems after the 25,000 blacks got out of jail.

Heavy D sang the first version of the Cosby Show theme, them Bill found out he was actually white and fired him. So Phoebe Snow was brought in to sing and that didn't turn out well either.....

Don't get me wrong...dude was quite popular in 1991 or whatever, but influential? I don't see that.

What are you on, Heavy D was Jamaican. The Cosby Show Theme has always been an instrumental. Money Earning Mount Vernon was cool though

(that's the joke.gif)

Mugato: He wasn't gunned down? What kind of rapper was he?

On the positive tip, yo! Before "gangsta" rap, there was hippity hop.

In related news, Golden Corral stock up 2%, KFC down 2 1/4.

Has anyone informed the Disorderlies?

Now Heavy D is dead weight. :-(

Brandyelf: I am having a total "get off my lawn" kind of day!!! I don't know who this is, either!

He found Gamble and Huff and Third World showed him what to do......witheeeeeeeet.

I'm reminded of a line from someplace... Goes like

"You either need to lose 100 pounds or make 6 good friends"

wildcardjack: I'm reminded of a line from someplace... Goes like

Dude, that don't even rhyme. . ..

Kanemano Money Earning Mount Vernon was cool though

You Know Who Else Was From Mount Vernon?

bet you thought i meant that surveyin' slave-owning planter wit bad teeth?

Awww, Big Tyme was one of the first CDs I bought.

/Rub me belly and make me feel irate

Come on, dawgs...Heavy D found love, homeys!

Knara: He was the black dude on Special Victims Unit, right?

I know you think you were making an "all black people look alike" joke, but he actually was on it a couple of months ago.

Every time I hear "Mount Vernon" i think of Paperboy and the Ditty.
