Plans for Heavy D's funeral services are being made, and his sendoff will be small and intimate with close friends and family only. The beloved rapper, born Dwight Errington Myers, will be laid to rest next Friday, November 18, in the New York area.

TMZ reports that Heav's family will be holding a public viewing the Thursday before the funeral for fans to catch a last glimpse of the "Now That We Found Love" rapper.

Heavy's burial services Friday will be invite-only. The surviving Boyz of Heavy D & the BoyzDJ Eddie F and dancer G-Wiz — will be in attendance. While calling into MTV News' "RapFix Live," Eddie explained the universal appeal of his late friend.

"The thing that he did that may be apparent, but maybe a lot of people didn't pay attention to it, he was the type of rapper like the hardest, hardest, hard rock was a fan of his, and he would move on the street," Eddie F told MTV News. "But then he was also respectful, and your mother, your grandmother could listen to Heavy D."

Also sure to attend the funeral will be Sean "Diddy" Combs and Mary J. Blige, who both worked with the Overweight Lover while he was at Uptown Records. The Wayans brothers are on the list of select attendees, according to TMZ; Heav famously penned and performed the theme music to the Wayans' "In Living Color" sketch-comedy show.

Heavy D died Tuesday after collapsing near his Beverly Hills condominium. Although it's been reported that he had pneumonia-like symptoms shortly before his death, the Los Angeles coroner has not announced an official cause of death.

Britney Spears, Ke$ha, And Jordin Sparks Do The Wango Tango

Well, I don’t know if the three singers actually did a dance called the Wango Tango (although I bet it’d be fun to watch whatever wacky version of the tango that would be), but all three did attend KIIS FM’s … Continue reading

J. Cole's Rap Name Was 'Therapist,' On 'When I Was 17'

'A few years later, I realized Therapist sounded like a wrestler's name,' Roc Nation rapper recalls on Saturday's episode.

Before he was signed with Roc Nation and topping charts with his debut album, Cole World: The Sideline Story, 17-year-old Jermaine Cole was still trying to find his hip-hop identity. And on this week's episode of "When I Was 17," North Carolina native J. Cole reveals some of his rather interesting pre-fame stage names.

"When I was 17, I had been rapping for what, five years, at that point," Cole reveals on Saturday's show, which airs at 11 a.m. ET on MTV. "There was a local group named Bomb Shelter that had been mentoring me since I was 14 years old."

And it was Bomb Shelter that really got J. Cole thinking about a catchy rap name. "One [group member] was Nervous Reck and the other was Filthy Ritch. I was like man, 'Those are the most creative rap names I ever heard. I need a rap name like that!' " Cole recalls.

So the budding rapper did what any smart guy would do — he hit the books.

"We used to look through the dictionary for rap names," he says, "I could never find nothing. One day these dudes [Bomb Shelter] were like, 'Yo, we got a name for you, it's Therapist,' " he said.

While J. Cole wasn't entirely feeling the name, he decided to test it out with the help of his mentors. His friend, Nervous Reck, thought Cole could make it work by playing up the doctor angle. "I was like maybe it could work, you just gotta play on the whole doctor image and being therapeutic and your music is therapeutic," Nervous Reck explains on the episode.

So Cole rocked with the moniker Therapist for a while, figuring his mentors knew better than he did about these matters.

"A few years later, I realized Therapist sounded like a wrestler's name," Cole laughs. "You know, like an alias. It didn't feel real."

So he ditched Therapist and adopted J. Cole. "J. Cole felt like my real name. That was a real natural fit. It didn't feel like I was trying to be anything."

We think his fans would agree: Therapist World just doesn't have the same ring to it.

"When I Was 17" — this week featuring J. Cole, Robyn and Chad Michael Murray — airs on Saturday at 11a.m ET/PT on MTV.
