Im Born and raised in that 9thward Black Groove City New Orleans (1980). My older cousins would play different rappers songs 🎵 that came from different boroughs in New York. Heavy D was one of them. Black New York has always been a big influence in my city since I was born R.I.P. to the legend Heavy D,much respect to Money Making Mount Vernon
@@caribbeanbantu I didn't say Mt. Vernon was a borough,I said my older cousins would play different (rappers) from different boroughs. I should of put rappers in parentheses for people like you. He don't have to be from a specific borough but he is from New York. Stop being contrary to just be contrary,in simplest terms you trying to make yourself right but you still sound stupid. Here I am giving props to the man and his town and you jump conversation just to undermine me. I bet you have a face that's meant for skin on knuckles.
If u wasnt watching this video when it was new on bet don't talk to me about your hip hop knowledge this was the era of originality and every artist stood on their own with great videos ,what a beautiful time in life my jam was don't u know RIP heavy d and trouble t roy shout out the other boyz. Money earnin Mt Vernon
I'm from Mount Vernon born December/291979. Timothy M. Jacques my hometown represent. Much respect to the late Mr. Heavy D. And The Boyz. My mother the late Pam J. and My dad the late Mr. James E. Barksdale would be proud. Shout outs to Mv.
I'm from Alabama and I'm a trucker . When driving thru New York on 95 I finally saw the exits for Mt Vernon. It's about 20 miles east of NYC but it's very close .
They still have those old avenue signs with the letters worn out. West 2nd street from Wakefield still looks terrible. They still haven't repaved the road yet!!!!
Damn watching these videos make me extremely sad. I'm sad that he died, and I'm even more sad at the fact that I can' remember when he use to play with me as a baby. I would have loved to see him again, just so he could see how much I have grown. God bless his family. RIP Hev your Money Earnin Mount Vernon family will miss you.
Im young for when heavy was big but i always got respect for him reppin mt vernon. I dont know why hes talking about Lorraine Park while filming in Hartley Park tho, why not just film in Lorraine?. But Lorraine Park now has an awesome mural of Heavy D and the boyz

I miss Heavy D!!! He was one of my favorites! This tune is so special to me because back in the days I was always curious to know where my Vernon was until I saw one of the maps of NY and I noticed it a suburb that was right next to the Bronx. I the summer of '97 I remember visiting " Mt Vernon for the first time after visiting the Yankee Stadium in Bronx!!!!!! I stopped at the KFC on Sanford Blvd an chilled before I went for a drive around the four square mile town!!!!! It was great memorable moment!!
Born in 1956 and raised in Mt. Vernon. Went to Graham School in the early 60's. Bought my converse all stars at Chambers and the rest at John the Bargain on the avenue. Best days of my life.

I'm from the Bronx, around White Plains Road and always considered MV and Yonkers as extensions of NYC ( sister cities), due to a similar vibe, style, people and flavor. Also did a lot of MV, take the train to places to shop in NYC and where to ?
I've never seen this video before. I like this song, Uncle Hev. My favorite's always gon be _Somebody For Me._ I also love _You Can't See What I Can See._ R.I.P.
I could never get over the original Spinderella in this video. She looked at Heavy D very crazy looking...Then left and then got sad. She had the chance to talk to him earlier and blew it.
The Heavster appealed to both to the streets and the stream, one of the few who was equally admired and respected. He was literally a huge figure in hiphop and delivered some amazing tunes. Sadly missed, a real legend in the music world.

I might not be a 90s or 80s baby but I rather listen to 80s and 90s music better than the garbage music you hear on the radio nowadays
This was the '80s not '90s
@@sheilabush8413this was late 80s on the verge of 90s. 87 to be exact, so saying 80s and 90s is correct. Relax dude
Thank you for your comment. I know many young people who feel the same way.
I remember watching this video ( 11th grade ) , 1987 , I told my aunt I moving to MT Vernon , she was on S 10th Avenue .
The 1987 Chevy Blazer! That was doing it big and the kitted up 190 Benz and Volvo, you definitely was doing it big!!!
Tell em, they don't know! Those were our Maybachs and Lambos of the day.
Raised and born in the boogie down Bronx, but I’ve always made Yonkers, New York and Mount Vernon New York Definitely my second home.
