Heavy D reminded me of my dad.  No, really, he looked like a taller version of my dad.  But he could move like a smaller man, and he had a smooth flow tailored to his teddy-bear image.  

Heavy D passed away today; cause of death is yet unknown, and he was only 44, far too young. I’ll miss seeing him pop up on my favorite shows (remember his run on Roc?) and knowing my dad’s fake twin was out there making hip-hop safer for the ladies.
