Heavy D & The Boyz Somebody For Me Live 1989)

[@donnellm.caldwell2212]

I was at the Apollo for this performance. 17 years old and loving life. Heavy rocked it like he always did. The 80s & 90s were amazing. RIP Heavy D. We miss you.

[@MrBoswel1]

Sweet

[@StarPlatinumV]

How did you feel when the girl came up on stage?

[@chevyakacommas5961]

Al B SURE IS KILLING THAT CHORUS!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lanceflx63]

He produced the song.

[@cojack424]

I’m so glad I was a teen in this era of hip hop....

[@Eleven11313]

Word❤

[@erichill4926]

Me too, I was like 14 when this came out, the younger generation will never ever know, the 80s was lit!!!!!!

[@BeautifulShortTemper]

Me 2. ❤’d him.

[@hasaneemidgette1900]

Hell yeah👍🏿✊🏾🍾

[@mocotone]

What you say?!!!!! I tell my 19 yo son all the time, "I'm so sorry that you'll never know what a true house party is like " Teddy Riley really deserves his own mark for coming up with New Jack Swing.

[@jontaewillingham4829]

The whole time I was just watching the choreography of the background dancers RIP Trouble T Roy and Gwiz you know how hard it is to dance through an entire song. Pure greatest!!!!!

[@gregvasser6944]

And Even more for the great heavy D,dude was light on his feet.

[@BadTV1993]

this is the pure class era of hip hop history..suits , refined production, class lyrics

[@Munecamorena93]

All factuals fam. ❤

[@DaaimShabazz]

Shows how much we have deteriorated.

[@TruthFLA]

that was far from the only style going on back then

[@Christopher0632]

Heavy was almost 300 lbs doing the same thing as the background dancers while rapping. What an incredible showman and originator in fashion. P Diddy modeled Biggie's whole style from Heav.

[@thomasholmes5372]

i love big but he couldn’t be as smooth as heavy d on his best day

[@BlackMagic8Ball]

80’s and 90’s women naturally gorgeous

[@johnblac7555]

They practiced and perfected before they hit the stage.

[@deshondachenault8857]

Good Ole days

[@TheReneex]

Heavy could outdance the most physically fit dancer on the planet!

[@corneilmadison8971]

Preach

[@FirstClassEnt1000]

[@donyutejamaica631]

Amazing that Heavy D could do all those moves at 6’4” tall, and probably close to 300lbs! RIP Heavy D a son of the soil 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@SharonDelores-sn8vb]

I was a teen when this song came out. No heavy bass, no profanity, not covered in tattoos, no nose piecings, no sexual content. Ths is good 🎶 music and dancing ❤❤❤❤

[@columbiacity3804]

[@simplyslim599]

GetMoney23 The King me too !

[@reneehoney7355]

My oarents fucked up mine. Locked me in the house like Cinderella.

[@chazatlas]

Yo, I can’t explain how awesome it was. I was 14 in 1984 and blessed to experience the birth of a genre that changed the world in real time. Even living in Greenville, SC, EVERYBODY came through, multiple times for concerts. 1986 it was RUN DMC, Whodini, Beastie Boys, LL Cool J - all at the same concert and tickets were $13.50

[@caselaw_sponge1055]

Maaaaan!!!

[@_HMCB_]

Great time my friend. I DJ’d block parties and events through this period. Played in 3 states. Even did pool parties where celebrities stopped by. The energy and innocence of people wanting to be happy and be immersed in the creativity that Hip Hop brought was in the air. Not to mention pop, R&B and the other music of that era all combined to make the 80s and 90s a memorable time to be alive.

[@reneehoney7355]

Real men who can dance.

[@kathygaither5746]

Love Heav AND the Boys❣️❣️

[@porschematthews08]

Love this song and beat. Heavy was ahead of his timeRIP

[@jontaewillingham4829]

The whole time I was just watching the choreography of the background dancers RIP Trouble T Roy and Gwiz you know how hard it is to dance through an entire song

[@michaelmckoy1518]

[@lakishascott2132]

[@galedribble9535]

That woman was too fly to be randomly picked out the audience. I think they pulled one on us

[@onnekatoussaint2832]

You. Are. Right. They. Dont. Make. Concerts. Like. That. Any. More. Just. Like. They. Dont. Have. Men. To. Appreciate. Woman. The. Way.

[@Noname-pe8wf]

The Boyz was no joke! Only people better than them was Heart & Soul (Bobby Brown's Dancers)

[@unc1589]

This era put thousands of black people in college. Even street cats broke left and went to school! In America, for black people, negative Imagery helped destroy us. (Bess believe it worked well!) On the flip, positive imagery works with the same effectiveness.

[@SandraSealySeawomanBDS]

No cussin' - just a sweet ol' hip hop teddy bear.

[@columbiacity3804]

Trouble T roy i use to try do ll there dances as a kid this is a performance. When was about move the crowd
