Results of an autopsy on rapper Heavy D have been inclusive in determining his cause of death last week at the age of 44. The L.A. County coroner's spokesman reported last week that there were no illegal drugs found in the rapper's Beverly Hills home, but that he had been prescribed a drug for a cough that could have been pneumonia. D died after experiencing difficulty breathing.
A funeral for Heavy D is scheduled for November 18th at the Grace Baptist Church in his hometown of Mt. Vernon, New York. Diddy and Rev. Al Sharpton are set to speak at the funeral.
