R.I.P. Heavy D

On November 8, 2011, the music industry lost Dwight Myers, better known as Heavy D, a celebrated icon whose music helped shaped the sound of early 90's hip hop and ushered in a fresh brand of radio-friendly tunes that mixed rap with new jack R&B. Soul Train Awards 2011 salutes Heavy D for his contributions as an all-around entertainer whose career was as timeless as his music.
