Heavy D - "You Can't See What I Can See (MTV Studio Performance)"
Sad news yesterday as Heavy D passed away outside his home at the age of 44. I never really got into Heavy D's music, but he did have a lasting impact on hip-hop. He brought some commercial light onto the genre with hits like "Now That We Found Love" and "Nuttin' But Love." He also launched the careers of Pete Rock & CL Smooth, for which us hip-hop heads will forever be grateful. Heavy seemed like a great guy from his public appearances and enjoyed some time on the big screen in The Cider House Rules and the small screen on shows like Bones and Boston Public. Of all his songs, this was certainly my favorite as it featured Flavor Flav on the hook. This video is from a live performance on Yo! MTV Raps, one of my favorite shows as a kid. Enjoy it and Rest In Peace Heavy D.
