And I think, um.. that's one of the reasons
I guess I'm Positive K right about now
[Pete Rock]
Yo.. What I like about my cuzzy cuz, Heavster
Is that he's the dopest, cleanest cut, big boy rapper
And ANOTHER thing I like.. about my cousin, Heavy D
Is he lets me come over his house, and raid his kitchen
Raid the refrigerator and I ain't gotta clean up behind myself, man
This is P-R (Pete Rock) Chillin, peace
[Martin Lawrence]
Yo, waddup, this is Martin Lawrence, to my man Heavy D
Undoubtably, one of the best rappers in the game
Also one of the THICKEST brothers in the game

Hev is the man regardless of anything because
He does what he feels, yaknowhatI'msayin, from the heart
He's a good brother, and he always let you know what's on his mind
YaknowhatI'msayin, like all these people perpetratin gangsta
Hev ain't on it like that, he's a real brother

[Treach]
Waddup, this is Treach in the house
I like to comment, on my man Heavy D
As a person, he's one of the coolest..
People you'd even wanna get to know
Youknowmsayin, every time Heavy D comes out
It's a whole different level, he never stays on one side
He's one of the most unpredictable emcees, in hip-hop history
That has been, underrated in my opinion
But has more street respect than a lot of
The hardcore rappers that's out there right now
We love you from Naughty, Heavy, and we out
[Buju Banton]

You've done it, uh, once again and again
And you continue to do it so well
Uh, the reasons why I like Heavy D

That you CAN listen to in front of your mother
And um.. even better than that, your mother'll wanna listen to him
