I was at the Apollo for this performance. 17 years old and loving life. Heavy rocked it like he always did. The 80s & 90s were amazing. RIP Heavy D. We miss you.
I was a teen when this song came out. No heavy bass, no profanity, not covered in tattoos, no nose piecings, no sexual content. Ths is good 🎶 music and dancing ❤❤❤❤
The whole time I was just watching the choreography of the background dancers RIP Trouble T Roy and Gwiz you know how hard it is to dance through an entire song. Pure greatest!!!!!
What you say?!!!!! I tell my 19 yo son all the time, "I'm so sorry that you'll never know what a true house party is like " Teddy Riley really deserves his own mark for coming up with New Jack Swing.
Heavy was almost 300 lbs doing the same thing as the background dancers while rapping. What an incredible showman and originator in fashion. P Diddy modeled Biggie's whole style from Heav.

Yo, I can’t explain how awesome it was. I was 14 in 1984 and blessed to experience the birth of a genre that changed the world in real time. Even living in Greenville, SC, EVERYBODY came through, multiple times for concerts. 1986 it was RUN DMC, Whodini, Beastie Boys, LL Cool J - all at the same concert and tickets were $13.50
Great time my friend. I DJ’d block parties and events through this period. Played in 3 states. Even did pool parties where celebrities stopped by. The energy and innocence of people wanting to be happy and be immersed in the creativity that Hip Hop brought was in the air. Not to mention pop, R&B and the other music of that era all combined to make the 80s and 90s a memorable time to be alive.
👁’m crying so hard! Heavy D could dance! Miss this dude! Eddie F Teddy Reilly in the production? Of course! We will never ever witness this again! What about Al B sure??? Drop the mic!
This era put thousands of black people in college. Even street cats broke left and went to school! In America, for black people, negative Imagery helped destroy us. (Bess believe it worked well!) On the flip, positive imagery works with the same effectiveness.

Teddy Riley really deserves his own mark for coming up with New Jack Swing.
this is the pure class era of hip hop history..suits , refined production, class lyrics

Shows how much we have deteriorated.
that was far from the only style going on back then
80’s and 90’s women naturally gorgeous
Heavy was almost 300 lbs doing the same thing as the background dancers while rapping. What an incredible showman and originator in fashion. P Diddy modeled Biggie's whole style from Heav.

You know there are some rappers thumbs up came from four or five came from down south here of Country folks down here
Being attracted to him, made me start looking at the bigger heavy set brothers differently. They dressed good, smelled good to😍
The crowd was great. Heavy was doing his thing, his dancers were lit. I miss the old days when artists cared about putting on a show
Great performance! Love the prop at the end!
Concerts during the new jack swing era. Nothing like it
Man Heavy D Is AWESOME!
When the beat dropped
Heavy 💜

No cussin' - just a sweet ol' hip hop teddy bear.
The rap today is ' hands off ' No contest ! This is the way ..........
That woman was too fly to be randomly picked out the audience. I think they pulled one on us
Yeah,I believe she was a plant. Lol.

Light on his feet.
The fresh prince brought me here
The Boyz was no joke! Only people better than them was Heart & Soul (Bobby Brown's Dancers)
Ohhh damn. Thx
I wonder if she still has that heart
RIP
Rappers in suits
Rap and dance with a suit on
The girls name is Tracy .... From Harlem ... Peace
This era put thousands of black people in college.
Even street cats broke left and went to school!
In America, for black people, negative Imagery helped destroy us.
