Hip hop and R&B record producer best known for his work as a part of Bad Boy Records’ “Hitmen” production team, Chucky Thompson, has died.<\/p>\n

53 years old Thompson’s publicist Tamar Juda announced the news in a statement to on Monday night. But she did not disclose his cause of death.<\/p>\n

“It is with a very heavy heart that I can confirm the passing of Chucky Thompson,” his publicist, Tamar Juda, said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“To anyone in his orbit, you know how generous he was with his energy, creativity and love,” the statement read. “Both the music<\/a> industry, and the world has lost a titan.”<\/p>\n

Thompson’s prot\u00e9g\u00e9, Young Guru, also confirmed the death on his Instagram, writing, “There is nothing I can write that will take away this pain. I have to say RIP to my mentor, my big brother, the man who changed my life forever.”<\/p>\n

“You were the kindest person the world has ever seen. You were the most gifted musician I have ever been around. You treated me like family from day one,” he wrote in a tribute to Thompson. “You made a point to the labels that I had to fly to New York with you on every session. You put me in rooms with Biggie. I will forever be in your debt and I will forever be your little brother. This one hurts so bad I can’t even explain it. RIP @chucklife365 there will never be another you!!!!”<\/p>\n

Thompson was a founding member of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ in-house production team, known as The Hitmen. His career also involved collaborations with Notorious B.I.G, Jennifer Lopez, Usher, Snoop Dogg, and TLC.<\/p>\n

Thompson got his start in go-go music as part of Chuck Brown’s band The Soul Searchers. As a producer, he made hit songs like Notorious B.I.G.’s “Big Poppa” and Faith Evans’ “Soon As I Get Home,” as well as Blige’s 1994 album “My Life.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
