One look at Heavy D's Twitter page and you'll find a series of inspiring (140 characters or less) thoughts. Like these two tweets made a few days before the 44-year-old rapper died:
"All glory comes from daring to begin."
"Never stop believing.. Magic is just science we don't understand.. Every original idea was considered insanity at first.."
Heavy D collapsed outside his Beverly Hills home following a shopping trip. He was transported to a nearby hospital where he died. Detectives found no signs of foul play and believe his death was medically related, according to police Lt. Mark Rosen.
