Dr Dre's Son passed away this weekend

www.drfunkenberry.com

Tragic news is coming out about rap legend Dr. Dre. Although not yet confirmed, it appears Dr. Dre’s son died this weekend. Andre Romelle Young, Dr. Dre’s real name has yet to make a statement.

His mother found Andre Young Jr. unresponsive shortly after 10 A.M. on Saturday. She then called emergency services. He came home early that morning after being out all night.

There has been no cause of death yet as they are waiting for an autopsy.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dr. Dre and his family during this time.-Dr.FB

Dr. Dre's 20-year-old son found dead in Los Angeles on weekend

LOS ANGELES - Dr. Dre's 20-year-old son has died, the rapper's publicist said Tuesday.

"Dr. Dre is mourning the loss of his son Andre Young Jr.," publicist Lori Earl said in a statement.

Young Jr., who was named after his father, was found dead Saturday by his mother at their home in suburban Woodland Hills, county coroner's Lt. John Kades said.

An autopsy was performed Monday but the cause of death wasn't likely to be determined for eight weeks while toxicology tests are done, Kades said.

I didn't know Dre had a son born around the time of Straight Outta Compton (1988). 20 years old is no time to die.

Will you spend your life with me

Yeah that thought had crossed my mind too if this was the child he had with Michele. I'm sorry to hear about his loss though. Michele might have had an annoying speaking voice, but her singing voice was superior!
