The son of hip-hop legend Dr. Dre was found dead at his home in Woodland Hills last weekend, according to KTLA. Andre Young Jr. was discovered by his mother, Nicole Young, who went to check on her son on Saturday morning.

Andre Jr. was supposedly out Friday night and returned home around 5:30 A.M. His mother went to check on him in his bedroom around 10 A.M. the next morning and found him unresponsive. She immediately called 911.
The cause of death is unknown, pending completion of a toxicology. Andre Young Jr. was only 20 years old. Andre Jr. is not to be confused with his brother Curtis Young who raps under the alias Hood Surgeon.
I’m sadly reminded that this year has been marked by a number of hip-hop deaths. You may recall that Xzibit lost his son exactly 3 months ago.
My sincere condolences to Dre and the entire Young family. May God grant them the fortitude to bear this loss.
