Amazing. For candid shots (or otherwise) the depth is amazing. love it.

Excellent work. You are the Black n White MASTER Photog!

The photo with Heav's hand on the boards is WICKED.
Keep up the good work man.

D,

As always, you capture the person's essence. I love the fact that you used black and white film. It adds a mystery to all subject matters and makes the observer stare at the photograph longer. Excellent work!!!!

Keep the photographs coming Derrick!!!

P.S. I love that Heavy D didn't look into the camera. The shots look more natural that way.

From photographer to photographer, man these are dope. Heavy D still has that great swag with him and you captured it well with the angles and all. Very impressed.

My name is D-Nice, My name is D-Nice, takin candid photos and you don't know how I did it.

Ya, that was lame, but still very nice photos. Can't wait to hear what comes out of this session!

i love these shots. they are amazing and i am definitely looking forward to his return

Beautiful shots...And, that's Heavy D? Wow. He looks great. No more Overweight Lover...

lovin these clicks brotha!

The heavy lova in action

Great photos!
It's good to see Hev back at it again.

Ok I'm getting back in the classroom

These are DOPE (as all of your work). Thanks for sharing!

The overweight lover's in the house...

Great photos. It's good to see Hev back in the studio, reviving old crushes ;-)

love these. curious if you ever shoot video with your 5D mark II? i'm a filmmaker, just started to embrace the DSLR thing.. would love to check out your work on that if you do. thx!

Great photos... he appears to be in deep thought in them. I saw him perform in Chi in Sept. and it was quite a treat! Looking forward to hearing his new music. Awesome!

These are really soooo nice! Feel like you're there. You have the skills to pay the bills :)

I love these photos. They are so real. I wish I could afford you. Fantastic!

Beautiful photographs...I love shooting with black & white, it captures different nuances & details. Great PENSIVE shots !!! I was sprung on "D" back in the day...guess I still am. THANKS.

Great pictures, seemed to have captured Heavy D deep in thought. cant wait for the new music

Finally...HEAVY HEARD MY PRAYERS!!! D-nice I have been following your post for sometime...hoping you will do a entry on my personal favorite MC of ALL TIME! ( D-nice you were/are incredible....especially as a producer...but with Heavy its a little personal) See Heavy made you dance...which kids dont do anymore! I wrote VH1 about Heavy being honored and never heard back from them. Let me educate a few people. Before Biggie, Pun or any other big men ...there was HEV! And how many people have made three concept albums back to back ...all different with out changing his style. Peaceful Journey, Blue Funk and Nutitn But Love. CLASSICS ... WHO DOES THAT NOW? I always wanted to meet him and hopefully still will if he do a promo tour. Heavy D need to show still youngsters how to entertain and still come off as one of the deepest ...ok he is not Rakim but he had his on style. Who's the man
" Yes, too many brothers be fakin' moves or frontin' grooves
Peace to all the brothers on the block, drinkin' and passin' brew
Money tried to flip but he got flopped
Said, it was his corner, let him know his corner's on my block"
Creative, innovative, Unique and did it with the big names as well....The HEAVSTER!
and D-nice I would love to see you pick up the mic as well...They still just crumbs on the table!

Awesome pics.

I love your composition and the use of the B&W it gives more meaning the candids and the recording session. It makes one feel as if they were present. Grace and peace.

first record i ever bought mr big stuff whats fucking with that

but onto d nice very proud to see you doing something not only positive but left field from most people from our hiphop culture ..NUFF RESPECT..i do wonder if you keep in contact with KRS
ANY WAYS CONTINUED SUCCSESS

HEV is my favorite Mc of all time (next to my man Pac). First time i saw HEAVY in person was back in the late 80's when he performed at a well known skating rink in Boston (yeah i was about 13 or 14) and wasn't suppose to be in the joint...... Lots of energy and the ladies loved the cat! Welcome back homie!

ps Keep up the great work D, and i still got "MY NAME IS D-NICE" cd......CLASSIC.
