About
Though Heavy D was the self-proclaimed “overweight lover,” he was also one of the nimblest rappers of his era, and his swift flow is the defining element of 1989’s <i>Big Tyme</i>. While other rappers roared like lions, Heavy handled himself with the sleek confidence of a leopard. He was also an exceptional nurturer of young talent in its formative stage. A teenage Teddy Riley helped Heavy turn hip-hop into club music on “We Got Our Own Thang,” while Pete Rock delivered the luxurious funk and reggae of “Mood for Love” and “Big Tyme.”
