RIP, Heavy D

Rapper Heavy D - born Dwight Arrington Myers - died on Tuesday in Los Angeles at age 44.

Rapper Heavy D - born Dwight Arrington Myers - died on Tuesday in Los Angeles at age 44. He had several hits with his back-up group The Boyz (with whom he's pictured), including "We Got Our Own Thing."  He performed the theme song to the comedy sketch show In Living Color, and the Jamaican native's biggest song was "Now That We Found Love," which you'll see below in a clip from Club MTV. The self-proclaimed "overweight lover" had a bit part in the new Eddie Murphy and Ben Stiller caper comedy Tower Heist, and rapped with Michael Jackson on "Jam," from 1991's Dangerous, which you can hear here.
