He was only 59 years old.

An official cause of death has yet to be established.

His manager said he was visiting a friend in L.A. at the time of his death.

His friend reportedly found him unresponsive in his bathroom.

The friend then called paramedics around 4 PM local time.

However, they tried to revive him for about 45 minutes.
