"Heavy D" is dead.

Arrington Myers aka "Heavy D" Death

     Heavy D, the self-proclaimed “overweight lover” of hip-hop who became one of rap’s top hit-makers, humor and a positive vibe, has died November 8, 2011. He died at the age of 44. Andrew Weitz of William Morris Endeavor Entertainment confirmed the rapper’s death in Los Angeles in an email Tuesday, without giving a cause of death or saying where he died. The deep-voiced rapper’s earliest hit, “The Overweight Lover’s in the House,” played up his hefty frame. But while that nickname would stick, his weight did not become part of his clique Fat Boys.
