We recently re-watched the amazing Unsung episode featuring one of the truly underrated hip hop groups of all time, Heavy D. & The Boyz. Back in the late 80’s. Hev and his Mount Vernon, NY homies really made waves in Hip-Hop, R&B and later, Pop Music. One of the early groups to benefit from the legendary super producer, Teddy Riley, they were on top until the early-mid 90s. Unfortunately, with the untimely death of dancer, Troy Dixon, AKA Trouble T-Roy, the group began to unravel. Although Heavy D. would continue for a few more successful albums with The Boyz and several solo efforts, Dwight Errington Myers (his government name) died unexpectedly on November 8, 2011.
