Shoutout to homie Khal at RockTheDub.com for getting this mix out. Just like he said, there's plenty of folks putting together mixes for the late, great, and legendary Heavy D., and this is just a different version from across the seas. So hit play and reminisce on the greatness that was the Overweight Lover Heavy D. He will forever be missed. R.I.P. Heavy D.
As we all know, the Hip-Hop community and the world at large lost one of the true greats within the game, Heavy D. In going through his catalog, I realized that we needed a proper tribute to the man. Yes, I know Mister Cee, DJ Premier, Marley Marl and DJ Wonder (among others) cooked up mixes for their respective radio shows, and they are all ill, but I had the thought early (maybe the night he passed) for my boy DJ Cable, who is a talented, award-winning DJ from the UK as well as a lover of that '90s Hip-Hop and R&B, to cook up a tribute mix for rockthedub. He hit me back with 52 minutes of funk, with a number of classics and hits right alongside features and remixes he was a part of, spanning pretty much all parts of Heavy's career. It's a dope mix in the end, and something I'm glad to help present. Let's celebrate the life of Heavy D with this one.
