Dr. Dre Has Lost A Son

Sad news this afternoon. Dr. Dre's 20-year-old son passed away over the weekend. Andre Young Jr. was found by his mother Saturday morning at their home in Woodland Hills, CA.

Andre was out with his friends the night before and came home at around 5:30 in the morning. His mother called the paramedics when she couldn't wake him. They pronounced him dead at the scene.

An autopsy was performed yesterday in Los Angeles. Andre's cause of death is not known at this time.

Dr. Dre's rep confirmed the news to People: "Dr. Dre is mourning the loss of his son. Please respect his family's grief and privacy at this time." Sadness.

Rest in peace, Andre Young Jr.

A moment of silence is always a good way to pay respect to the dead.

....AMEN!! RIP Dre Jr. Losing a loved one is horrible, especially when it's sudden.

And since 155,000 people die daily, some of you can feel free to take many moments to be silent...

I don't expect rocket scientists to work at McDonald's for minimum wage....but I do expect people to know the difference between bacon and sausage, damnit.

He is my favorite. Just saw his personals ID on millionaires personals site """""""""C e l e b C u p i d.c o m""""""""""" yesterday. I am wondering what kind of relationship he is looking for on that site.

My dad died when I was 15. Then when I was about 21 or so I had a lump on my neck and the doctor told my mom it was Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma.
She told me that the thought of having me die was worse than losing her husband. And she worshipped my father.
I cannot imagine anything worse than losing a child.

I read that this morning too. Was the kids mother a groupie or something? There's no mention of the mother or if he had "dated" her vs a one night stand...was just wondering 'cause the rest of the kids mothers' are mentioned but not this one

From 1990 to 1996 Dr. Dre dated singer Michel'le, who frequently contributed vocals to Death Row Records albums. In 1991 the couple had a son, Marcel. In May 1996 Dr. Dre married Nicole Threatt, who was formerly married to NBA player Sedale Threatt.[100] Dr. Dre and Nicole have two children together: a son named Truth (born 1997) and a daughter named Truly (born 2001) He is also the biological father of rapper Hood Surgeon (real name Curtis Young), with mother, Cassandra Joy Greene, then 16, when Dre was 17.[101]

I think poo times are relevant in death. For many, death reveals a person's final poo.
