RIP Heavy
God always takes people like you, Biggie and Tupac early. Never the useless ones like Lil Wayne, Lil B (still never heard shit from him/it/her) or Flava Flav. Well Flava ok. Man damn...somethings in my fucking eye

I don't feel any type of way at all. My mind and body will not let it sink in that he is gone. I have to really meditate and accept this. That let's me know that he was that important. The track I loved the most by him:
This interview was good as a mofo. He was getting his productin game ON!
That T.R.O.Y. being played at the 2:43 mark was more telling than anybody in the studio could ever imagine.
My body just told me that this morning. Crazy.

He produced that???!
This is one of my favorite Heavy D tracks.
If you listen carefully he says ".... place of rest after death, heaven."
He's most definately he's up there with the other angels.
God sent him here on a misson and took him back from us.

LL Cool J: May GOD embrace the soul of Heavy D and Bless his family. I respected you Heavy and I always will.
Lenny Kravitz: I am so saddened by the passing of Heavy D. My condolences go out to his family. Rest in peace my friend. Guns and Roses. Lenny
Talib Kweli: When Jay Z shouted out Heavy D at MSG last night I almost broke down real talk. Hev is a special brother. When I was in JHS the girl I liked made up a dance to Overweight Lover. That's how I first got into Heavy D and the Boyz. Heavy D was always a spectacular MC but the album he made after Trouble T Roy passed was stellar. Blue Funk. We love you Hev. Without Heavy D ain't no Diddy. Ain't no Biggie. Ain't no Pete Rock & CL Smooth. Recognize. RIP. Later in life I became friends with Hev. He has been sending me new music for years. Incredible music. We love you Hev. RIP

R.I.P. Heavy, I remember a backyard party around 1983-1984 Hev came to MC along with eddie-f who was spinning who was my neighbor in Mt. Vernon, Al-b, Pete Rock, and Puffy, showed up, most B-Boys and B-Girls rode in on BMX bikes to the party I was there to loan eddie-f some amps and sound equipment, when these guys did there thing people of all ages enjoyed there vibe, mamas, grandpas, kids young and old were all dancing together and all enjoyed the heavster and the boyz, they made such a impression on my parents at the time as to their professionalisim at there age, and Heavy had so much charisma on the mic. I remember talking to them one snowy night on a street-corner, edddie-f had a brown box with an 808 and they were heading to his studio to make some beats I was a DJ at the time but my crowd was older as I was, and they wanted to do some parties along with me, but I passed on it cause i wanted to settle down and have some babies and stay at home weekends. The next time i saw them was on a 12" record cover in a bar in Hollis Queens, Run-D-MC's stomping grounds "Mr Big Stuff" being spun by Jam master Jay also R.I.P. I was so proud to know them, It was the most innovative produced record of the time and still is a party hit to me. I think we used to do the "wop" to it, but I still remember to this day my moms asking me "why don't you get that record from Heavy Boy and the boyz from the heights"

Oh Shit That track gives me the chills everytime I hear it. Props to Sigel for painting a vivid picture, but that track pulls you in and doesn't let you go until it ends. Heavy is gone, but a body of work like that will make him immortal.

Why isnt this stickied anymore??
woooooooooooow, at a lost for words. For now I'm just gonna say: Go in peace brotha
and
Man.... did yall know Hev also produced the MadTV theme?
Dude was making so many moves lowkey over the years.... rip again to this brother, a true hip hop original
With God's grace, a little bit of luck, and a lot of determination, I won't leave this earth for a very, very, very, very, very long time. But, when I do, I hope that I can leave a positive impact that is only a portion of the impact left by Heavy D. If I can do that then I will know I lived a good life.
Notable people die somewhat often. Rarely do we truly mourn someone we never knew. This one is different, this really has a lot of people hurt.
It's fucked up that we never know how special people are until they are gone.

Y'all don't get it. Racist/white supremacist festivities like HALLOWEEN are much more important than any African American pioneers of HipHop. This is BGOL, the so called BLACK BOARD/FORUM!

Somebody got wise & called the combined blend a remix.
After all that, never knew (or looked into that) Heav did it.
Love how he used the sample in the 1st one released & how Rob handled it.
Its obvious BiG Heav's production credits go deep & long like his respect, career, accolades, $ & impact.
BlessUp as your impact is felt throughout your influences.
Good drop on the ?uestlove testimonial blog joint, Drizzy

Can I get the download of this?
Should normally be able to download straight from the soundcloud link but I think it reached a limit or something.
You can cop this mix here
