Coolio rose to prominence as a member of the Gangsta rap group WC and the Maad Circle, alongside WC and Crazy Toones. The rapper died unexpectedly, and the entire world is in mourning.
Coolio died in Los Angeles on Wednesday. The rapper who rose to fame in the 1990s was visiting a friend late Wednesday afternoon when he died. Coolio’s longtime manager, Jarez, stated that Coolio went to the bathroom at his friend’s house but when he didn’t return after a while, the friend kept calling for him and ultimately walked in and found Coolio laying on the floor.
Coolio was pronounced dead on the scene when the friend called EMTs. While speaking to TMZ, Haddaway stated that the Coolio would’ve headlined in Germany this weekend will go on.
Coolio said that work’s already underway to make Sunday’s show in Düsseldorf a proper homage to Coolio. He added that they plan on showing some throwback photos and playing some hits they collaborated on over the years.
Haddaway added that Robin S. and Crystal Walters already have an open invitation to join him on stage Saturday. We will have to wait and see how the concert will turn out to be.
