RIP Heavy D



Sad news. Heavy D died overnight in LA.  He was only 44.

I absolutely LOOOOOVED his song "Now That We Found Love" so much when it was on the charts. Well, it was 1991 and I was 14.


I just re-watched this video and so many memories came rushing back. Mainly about how I thought I knew the lyrics at the time. Obviously not! I just looked them up. Check them out in full here. Man, they're hilarious. And clearly I had no idea what I was singing about. The opening lyrics should have given me an idea:

One two, tell me what you got

Let me slip my quarters inside your slot to hit the jackpot
Rev me up rev me up
My little buttercup
We can tug sheets snuggle up and get stuck

RIP Heavy D. Thanks for the memories.
