[HalfWayToGingerHill1]

Halfway to Gingerhill is in the process of making a documentary called

Not In My Name, Which aims to tackle why Jamaicans always get negative press.

I want to make a film with all the positive things from Jamaica.

If anyone has anything to contribute to the film, please get in contact,

It's time to fight back & let people know the truth.

The name halfway to ginger hill came from where my parents originate

Halfway tree, Kingston & to Ginger hill, St Elizabeth.

incase you were wondering

[HalfWayToGingerHill1]

Heavy D RIP.

True Pioneer, u dun kno

Jamaican's are the founding fathers of Hip hop

Kool Herc, Afrika Bambaataa, Chubb rock, Heavy D, Peppa, Kid, Special ED

Slick Rick, Pete Rock, KRS, & Gil Scott Heron (RIP) all have Jamaican heritage.

Thenext gen took it up a level

Biggie, Busta Rhymes, Canibus, Smiff & wesson, Luke, Bushwick Bill, Will.i.am

just to name a few.

So people need to realise the influence the island of Jamaica has had on the world.

Jamaican's Rise up, We can do it.

[fallbackdigital]

@hoodtop You Right Along wiith Me !!!

[02CheeseKid]

when he talks of his friend who died in a "freak accident" oh please and jay z is the worst in the world when it comes to the illuminati he is the biggest puppet known to man

[VitaminD3P]

yo ... i never knew he produced "feel it in the air" R.I.P Heavy D

[Dannyboy1588]

Ive got a slight feeling Tim likes that Jay Z backing tune hes always playing it but ive gotta admit it is good

[BullyBeat]

He was only on this show a couple of days ago? I cant believe this shit man. R.I.P

[02CheeseKid]

how is it he suddenly dies 2 hours after exposing the illuminati when are you zombies gonna wake up!!!

[Dannyboy1588]

@02CheeseKid You need to wake up Illuminati clearly is all bullshit if it existed than Jay Z would most definitely be part of it as apparently the most successful artists are in it. He wouldnt than go on to expose it if he was rolling with an iluminati artist because that would be hypocitical. And tbh i didnt even hear him speak about illuminati.

[MrBenAndrew]

What an amazing ambassador for the genre. Lovely guy. RIP.

[Fiercefist]

R.I.P Hev, but hip hop was not created in Jamaica.. lol

[soulreflect]

Crazy, Heavy D actually speaking on the concept and ideology of T.R.O.Y, just days before his passing??? This guy was instrumental in bringing r&b to the main stream, pioneer of the New Jack Swing era,.......True Legend. RIP Hev.

[DJCW]

Oh shit, he played T.R.O.Y!! We reminisce over you, Heavy D! R.I.P

12 dislikes even after a major influential Hip Hop icon's death.

Words really can't describe my feelings for you right now!

[emngatana54]

@rokderboat we only say this when they've past away,Right?

[ALLthingsADE]

Heavy D was and will always be one of our most respected and classy acts to have ever entered the business. Not only that, he was a humble, smart and caring dude and loved and provided for his mom, like a son should! Love and condolences goes out to his family, friends, true fans and close associates! He's another one gone waaaay too son!

[ocase1000]

[sk8elb88]

[DSm00th89]

12:35 we had him baq right before he was called home for good smh, R.I.P. HEV

[mattyjy2k]

Oh, my god, so, so sad you're gone, I had seen Heavy just a few weeks ago at the Michael Jackson tribute concert, to me he was the most important person there! And then seeing him on the BET awards with such a great performance and dancing like he was 20 years old made me so happy, you brought love and happiness to Hip-hop & Rap, Hev. you're gone to soon!!! you kept rap real!!! you will be missed so much. peaceful journey, I bet you're rocking it! in heaven right now.

[Celticfan916]

I cant believe he's gone...... I've been speechless since I found out he passed. This man was damn near everything you wanted in a artist. RIP Heavy D we will miss you!

[Ebowred2]

im on my daughters page but, RIP Heavy D...man i used to win dance contest to this mans songs whn i was in college along with a few other college classmates . i was so thrilled to see him on BET HiP HOP HONORS man I will miss him . Calibamagurl23 !

[Ebowred2]

Wow can't believe this man is gone, just seen him on HIP HoP HONORS and I was so xcited to see him , if i could have got on tht staqe i would have danced with him... Dayum Heav is gone yall

[infinitelimitation]

him talking so much about death just days before his own is giving me chills

you could see his breathing was laboured here

he most probrably had undiagnosed heart failure or sumthing

RIP

[DramaSydE4]

rip heavy!

[gotthelovetv]

Tim Westwood is such jokes. Gotta love him

[MJRookieRook]

When was this???

God, still can't believe he's gone.........

[natsannho]

@MJRookieRook I think this was literally just last week

[MJRookieRook]

@natsannho :'(

[natsannho]

@MJRookieRook I just looked it up and this was from the 27th October, so not last week as I originally thought, but still very recent. So sad :(

[MJRookieRook]

@natsannho Close enough I guess. This is horrible.

[natsannho]

@MJRookieRook I know. He was a great artist and also seemed like a really nice guy.

[DeutschMTV]

RUHE IN FRIEDEN R.I.F. WE SAY IN GERMANY :-(

[DJL1ttle]

R.I.P. to a massive legend.....Hip Hop has lost a real gem. You will be missed Big Man

[JAYTEE2007]

the BET Awards killed Teena Marie James Brown Heavy D, Ray Charles & Rick James Who else? Who's their next sacrifice? hmmm come to think about it they all died right after being on a bet award show smh something is fishy

[TheRealCloFresh]

@JAYTEE2007

I'm trying to do research on this right now. 2 things jumped out at me about his death..His age "44" which is a symbolical number to the illuminati & the fact that he just performed like a month before his death on the BET Honors..Something may be strange here.

[MsRonchella]

RIP Heavy D

[carrot5229]

True inspiration to the hip hop scene bruh u r the soundtrack to graff art R.I.P Heavy D sorely missed

R.I.P HEAVY D You were one of and still are one of my favorite MC's one of the best ever NUTHING BUT LOVE HEV! you are missed greatly!

[sisd888]

RIP

[breathoffreshair360]

My deepest condolences goes out to the family of Heavy D. Hip-hop's original overweight lover, Heavy D parlayed an eminently likable persona and strong MC skills into a surprisingly lengthy career. He varied his lyrical concerns to include positive message tracks and fun-loving party jams, and exuded a genuine warmth and respect for women without getting too graphic or sentimental. He will be seriously missed...R.I.P. Heavy D. ~ Phurdrick

[112frankybaby]

My bro was just telling me about the indy accidents, heavy d and the bobby brown overdose. INDY! Tyson too.

[stress92]

@112frankybaby whats that

[jdluv79]

R.I.P. Heavy D...he was the man, much love!!

[averitas]

After watching the clueless audience response of numerous young Hip Hop awards, Soul Train audiences about the old school rappers and singers that made so much possible, I beg all of you to search out the roots of rap up to now as well as famous black stars who were rich but couldn't even eat, use the bathroom or stay at hotels in parts of our country. It's a shame overseas seems more interested in our history than our own. This has to change.

[Dreamtime67]

Out of losses you can always find Blessings.........4.10 Enuff said

Thanks Tim for this interview. I am sure you are speechless at the loss but also grateful for the opportunity to be blessed with Heavy's presence. Rest Peacefully he will as he left that way.
