The music and entertainment world is rocked yet again with another tragic loss. Late Tuesday morning, rap legend Heavy D was found collapsed but still responsive in his California home. Paramedics and emergency services arrived shortly after and Heavy D, whose real name is Dwight Myers, was immediately rushed to the Cedars Sinai Medical Center, the location in which the entertainer succumbed. It was reported that Heavy had difficulties with his breathing and had trouble climbing the stairs once he’d arrived at his home after a shopping trip. It was also found that the entertainer may have still been suffering from complications due to pneumonia from which he had not fully recovered. At press time, the cause of death had still not been confirmed but pending results from an autopsy. You can read more about Heavy D’s untimely death at NYDailyNews.com.
