Coolio’s friends think his “severe asthma” may have contributed to his death, according to TMZ.

Sources told the outlet on Monday that the late “Gangsta’s Paradise” rapper “struggled” with the lung condition for many years and that investigators had been informed of this.

Coolio died on Sept. 28 after being found unconscious on the bathroom floor of a friend’s house in Los Angeles. He was 59.

An official cause of death has not yet been released, but initial reports suspected he had gone into cardiac arrest.

Research published by the American Heart Association shows that people with persistent asthma could be at a higher risk of developing a heart rhythm disorder.

Despite his health condition, Coolio was seen performing several times in the days leading up to his death for sets that lasted about 30 to 40 minutes.
