As recently reported by Paq, hip hop pioneer Heavy D passed away at the young age of 44.

He was a well-respected originator in the rap game, and paved the way for many urban music artists both past and present.

A-Listers including Sean "Puffy" Combs, Will and Jada Smith, and Usher showed up to show love for Heav at a funeral held last Friday in his hometown of "Money Earnin" Mount Vernon, New York.

Even Jay-Z took time out from his current Watch The Throne tour duties to stop in and pay his respects.
