Coolio's death sent shockwaves through Hollywood.

The rapper was found unconscious in the bathroom of one of his friends, without the causes of death being able to be established, for the moment.

In his entourage, the emotion is very intense, and many tributes have been posted on social networks.

Actress Michelle Pfeiffer shared a message in which she recalled the immense impact of her tube

Gangsta's Paradise

, released in 1995, to accompany

Rebel Spirits

, in which she played.



“I am heartbroken by the passing of talented artist @coolio.

A life far too short.

As some of you may know, I had the good fortune to work with him on

Rebellious Minds

in 1995. He won a Grammy for his brilliant song on the soundtrack - which I think was why our film was so successful.

I remember he was quite adorable.

30 years later, I still get chills when I hear this song,” she wrote on Instagram, captioning the clip for

Gangsta's Paradise

, directed by Antoine Fuqua and in which she starred.

A nice person

Artist Weird Al Yankovic, who did a hilarious cover of his hit,

Amish Paradise

, shared a photo of him hugging his fellow artist (who loved the parody), simply captioning "RIP" for Rest In Peace, Rest in Peace.

MC Hammer, for his part, recalled that behind the artist, there was “one of the nicest guys I've met.

A good guy”, while Ice Cube remembered a singer who fought to impose himself.

“This is sad news.

I witnessed this man's rise to the top of the industry first hand.

Rest in peace Coolio,” he posted on Twitter.

Afida Turner also expressed her grief on her social networks.

The singer and actress had shared the life of the artist for three years, in the early 2000s. They had remained very close.

Coolio was 59 years old.

He leaves behind six children, all adults.
