Dr. Dre's Son Found Dead

Postby ,-,'-{Bar}-',-, » Aug 26th, '08, 15:33

The Los Angeles County Coroner reported today that the son of hip hop record producer and rapper Dr. Dre has died. Andre Young Jr. was found dead at his home in Woodland Hills on Saturday morning.

Young was out the previous night and returned home around 5:30 A.M., according to Assistant Chief Ed Winter. His mother went to check on him in his bedroom around 10 A.M., found him unresponsive, and called 911. He was 20 years of age.

The cause of death is pending completion of a toxicology report.

Andre Young Sr., better known as Dr. Dre, shot to fame with the influential gangsta rap group N.W.A. He later became an artist and co-owner of Death Row Records. In 1993, he won a Grammy Award for the single "Let Me Ride." As a producer, Dre was credited with popularizing West Coast G-funk.

Dr. Dre is currently the founder and CEO of Aftermath Entertainment.

rip.


thoughts go out to dre and his family, no one should outlive there kids thats just not the way it should work, and no one should die so young.

on a different note, say goodbye to any hopes of detox and i dont think anyone will be expecting it now.

R.I.P.



But instead of talking about Dr. Dre at the end of the article, they should have talked about Andre Young JR .. about his career or something ..

i dont think he did anything astonishing, incase anyone gets confused, this isnt hood surgeon the rapper (dre's other son), form what i read it seems the guy was an average 20 year old with a famous dad, but he wasnt to affliated with him publicly, so thats why it hasnt been on the news or anything, coz alot of people are doubting the news is true but i got it from like 5 different sources including allhiphop so think its defiantly true lol

True,
I think I mixed this JR guy with Hood Surgeon :sweating:
Cuz I just read on the other thread, which is about this, that it wasn't Hood Surgeon they found dead...
