Dr Dre's 20-year-old son has died, the rapper's publicist said last night

"Dr Dre is mourning the loss of his son, Andre Young Jr," publicist Lori Earl said in a statement.

Mr Young Jr, who was named after his father, was found dead on Saturday by his mother at their home in suburban Woodland Hills, LA, the county coroner's office said.

A post mortem was performed on Monday, but the cause of death wasn't likely to be determined for eight weeks while toxicology tests are done
