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.

I just want to say to the person above who posted "how many 20 year olds and younger have been killed because of andre, and the product he sells. not to mention the rest of the cRap world" you are one of the most ignorant people that this world needs to rid themselves of. If it were not for people like you who talk out of their ass we would not have problems like this. When was the last time you saw a movie or heard a record and went out and killed somebody or did something stupid because of it? HIP HOP/Rap is an art and it does not kill people. So im sorry but you are full of shit and you have no common sense or any humanity in you. This is a conversation about someone loosing their son and the comment you made is not one needed at this time. Get a life!!

My condolences go out to his family. I just lost someone today as well and it's really sad when you have to bury people who are younger than you. You never realize how precious life is until it's lost.
I wanted to comment to ANA: You were really out of line with your comment especially since it doesn't indicate that any foul play took place at the time of his passing.
Sometimes people need to read.

Thank you "Chunk",
Well said. Dr Dre and his family need our prayers and condolences, NOT criticism. My prayers go out the the family during this trying time. Some people are cold hearted, and can't recognize when others are hurting. "Anonymous" it could happen to you or someone you love, then how would you feel?
Posted on August 26, 2008 12:12 PM by elaine
I cant imagine your family grief right now..but I can say that a loss is always hard to deal with..as for you and your house continue to look up to the hills from which your help is given...may the glory of his angels provide you with all strength..always in spirit he reamins only his physical/shell is gone...his love remains deeply inside of each and everyone who loves him....

To the Family of Andre Young Jr., may GOD keep and whole you all together is this time of mourning. To the person who made the comment about the RAP world being the cost of 20 year old deaths, you are entitled to your oppinion, I just thought it was extremely tasteless to express it at this time. To the person who thinks this story is BS...Channel 5 picked the story up. I saw it this morning.

"it happened on Saturday and no one else picked up on the story...smells like some BS .. the internet has been full of crap with the death of kids"
I was thinking this as well. it happened Saturday morning, but the coroners reported it on Monday...when they start the week. toxicology reports take about 13 days or so. we'll have to wait and see what did him.
REST IN PEACE ANDRE JR.

To the Young family with my sympathy in the passing of your son. It's so hard to deal when you loose a child. May god bless you and your family during this time of confusion. Love you guys.

My prayers are with Dre and his family. May God keep you in your hour of sorrow.
To Anna: You must not have any children. What kind of human being, says the type of shit out their mouth about someone who just lost a their child. You may have your opinion on Rap music, but to talk about this man, like he is some animal. You need fucking help. And since Rap music is such cRap as you put it. Then why is it in every Goddamn thing!? Especially to appeal to consumers to buy major products.
That's one to grow on dummy!!!

I feel greatly for Dre. He not only had a very hard life growing up in Compton but lost both his brothers and even wrote a song about one of them Tyre.

To Dre and Family You have my prayers and my Blessing. It is hard losing children, parents or anyone you love so I say to you take your time and deal with it. it will be ok . it teaches us to have hope, faith and to regain our strength as human being. it is hard and just remember life is a hard lesson to be learn but it is how we live it, you remember him as a son, a brother, a man and a the person he was and in time you will be able to understand or deal with his death. again you have my prayers and stay strong and remember the rest of your children and your wife needs you so much more now and I know you are feeling it as well so again stay strong. Love and God Bless to you and your Family Always. I also say to the assholes of the world, Stop assuming things even if it is and overdose or a heart attack or just some illness he is still somebody's child and so are you. what are the first three letters of assume, ass. stop being a ass

I took the time to read all of the comments and it's quite a shame the things that a few of you took the time to write. Before making such thoughtless condescending comments you need to go to school, read a book, learn how to spell.........GET A LIFE! This person has lost a loved one for crying out loud.
Posted on August 26, 2008 3:45 PM by Amazed
I experienced enough violence courtesy of a culture that Dre influenced. Now he gets to know how it feels to outlive your kids. My only mercy and sympathies go out to that kid, he didn't ask to be born and he didn't know any better. 20 is too young. cRAP culture has played it's part when people lose respect for life over material substance. RIP Jr.

My deepest sympathy to Dr. Dre and His Family. There shall be no disrespect in the loss of another person's beloved. U appear to be a very disturbed person, perhaps a racist, sexist, polygamist and the first suspect in the case of any 'foul play'. To the haters...may you respectfully rot in hell.

Dr Dre and to the Mother of this young man: My condolences go out to the 2 of you and the extended family. I know that no words that I or anyone else can say at this time can heal the pain you are feeling. I will say that time does heal all wounds. There will forever be avoid but as time goes on you will learn to remember the precious memories you shared. It's ok to mourn and cry........u have experienced a tremendous loss and much too soon. I too have experienced the same pain.I can tell you that it will get easier in time.. Please remember that although I am not one for rap,nor have I followed your career I am very sorry for the loss. May God give you the comfort that you need in this time of bereavement. The two of you lose your son but gained an angel. I know that may sound corny but it is true. I am a total stranger to you both but please believe that when I kneel in prayer this evening I am also praying for you. God Bless you Mom and Dad and the extended family as well...

Thats sad I guess. It depends on the circumstances. If it is a medical condition, then ya, its sad. But if he was being a typical celebrities child, and OD'd or overdrank or something then I feel no remorse for him. sorry i don't. But we will see. God bless, hope dre and his wife can work through it either way.

I think all you people on here talking reckless about thats life and about RAP music need to be be EDUCATED!!!!! First of all we all come into this life with a birthdate and death date that only GOD know but its always sad when a young person loses their life no matter if its my son or DR DRE'S! Second for all the RAP bashing people where commiting crimes and killings before RAP was created so what genre of music to you want to blame for the deaths in the 20's,30's,40's,50's,60's and 70's NEED I SAY MORE GET OFF HIP HOPS BALLS !!! Dont be mad because young poor black people created something unique.

First I would like to send my condolences to the whole entire Young family for the lost of Andre Young, Jr. My prayers are with you.
Now some of the comments I've read are very deplorable, and insensitive. This is not the time or the place to show the world how truly ignorant you can be. This man has just lost his oldest son. No matter what circumstances he died under, Dre still lost his child. Have some damn respect and take that ignorant shit somewhere else.

I was very sad to hear about Andre--RIP

A blackmans craft or art is always painted devilish.When have you heard that films like Scarface influenced people to sell drugs?When have you heard films like Scream influenced Kids to kill other kids?When have you heard that so and so rock band influenced people to worship the devil or kill themselves?It always has to be hip hop.Why?Because its a blackmans art.This is pure racism in disguise,and some of you lowlifes are buying it.My condolence to Dr Dre and the Mother of the Kid.May our good God refresh the spirit of the boy.Peace with love from Africa

These people who state that Dr Dre and hip/hop kills is bullshit!!! Hip/hop saves a lot of people from death including kids who are lost. What the fuck is wrong with you. Your kid mighta been dead if it weren't for Dre and hip hop... hypothetically speaking. get a life and shut the hell up cause u don't know what you're talking about!!!

My thought's are with the " Young " family on the rebirth, of their beloved son, for it's not a loss to leave from this mean,corrupted,and divided world. A person should be remembered for the joy they brought to other's while we were blessed to have them here, and not judged on how they departed. This is my first time on here, but upon reading the thing's some had to say, it's evidence of what kind of world we're living in. I'm from the east coast and every since I was young enough to remember, when I was first introduced to the DOC & Snoop I instantly feel in love with their music and swagger. It didn't matter what side of the globe they were from & it doesn't matter now, while driving this evening I heard the news over the radio and immediately my heart dropped for it felt as if ' Young Jr. " was one of my own. But before I go I would like to say to the negative comment's that were made past or present, don't let it be to late before you get it ( YOUR SOUL ) right, for death has not a name,time,or number. It could be you next are you ready ? May the mercy of " GOD " shine upon the " Young Family " and all families across the nation, who has given back a loved one from which they came to soon, for "LIFE" is a gift, cherish it, love it, and respect it !

An expression of my condolences to the family of Dr. Dre. I can't say that I understand and doubt if anyone does because, as stated previously, a parent shouldn't have to bury their children. And Although I too have had to bury a young son at the tender age of 15. I still can't say that I feel what you feel. May God bless your family and give each of you the strength to stand during this time. And remember. God loved him more

WOW!
People are dying younger and younger these days! Big Dre I can only imagine how how hard it must be. Just rember GOD will see you through! console lil Dre mother and you both WILL make it. No im sure when non famous people die, we don't noticed however, that's not whats important. As long as you have accepted Jesus Crist as your lord and savior then you have eternal life! who cares if your momma don't even come to your funeral, cant no one get you into heaven. when judgement day come, make sure
you are enter into the gates!!!!!!!! TAKE HEED brothers and sisters!

I took the time to read all the messages before I left mine and I'm amazed at how the world thinks. Yes its sad when anyone looses someone. Our birth and death date only the lord knows.but regardless of what dre did or didn't do. Or how you feel about him personally as a rapper is not the purpose of this page. Someone said on here people die all over the world everyday and we don't talk about them in blogs and this is only gettin publicity because dre is famous and this so true.but when we can come together as one world to help someone in there time of mourning by writing how we feel about life is nothing but positive therapy for us all.and to Anna I feel for you I can tell you are alone and lost in the world. I have a son who is 4. And as a mother I raise him.not rap music or any other.source or entertainment. he has enough love and support from me to always know right from wrong and be a strong successfull man. Now some of it is horrible but if you don't like it turn the shit off. Its just that simple.

I believe you all have missed it as well as missed it when you involved yourselves and your families in this culture. :you do not have a generation of young males 20 and 21 commiting suicide on each other and write it off as when it's your time it's your time. Im in chicago (correct spelling) and the magic # here this year is age 22.Human beings please wake up and divert this energy to the survival of our young and gifted people that U brought to this planet. Religion gives you a story, this is an epidemic. The notion that you would accept Our young being called off to heaven, cause he can be a better gift to god, than to discovering the cure for aids on gods planet. Age 20 thru 22. Yeah, well believe that as you may. And yes rap culture is the cause root and base and all who let their familys invest in this culture your hands reak of murder as well.

My prayers go out to Doctor Dre. and his family.No child deserves to die at an early age but God knows best for us. People please don't be ignorant on here,Yes I'm talking about the comment Ana Made and I guess she's a difference maker where she lives. Ana grow up I know that you are my people,if you know what i mean. That's how we do each other instead of understanding situations.Here's one of the greatest Pioneer's of the G Funk and you insult him. You should keep your comments to yourself because i want to see what you've done in your life. If rap encourages kids to commit murder then did Rock-N-Roll influence devil worship and columbine, drugs and sloppy sex or did the blues create drunk people to sleep around and kill their significant others or do pop music make you wannna get up and dance on top of your car? You are a classic example of a nigga not a black person or African-American but a nigga. Defined as an ignorant person yes I am black and proud. I listen to his music and I've never got pumped to kill anyone its story telling about what people like us experienced in the hood. R.I.P lil Dre. and Ana stay off of here being stupid.
