Snoop Dogg's younger brother Bing Worthington is dead, the rapper said Friday on Instagram.
The 44-year-old died Thursday, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Department in California, which runs the area medical examiner's office.
"The cause of death will be pending the results of the toxicology and autopsy report," Sgt. Frank Gonzalez said by email.
Snoop hired his brother to work on high-profile projects, and he rose through the ranks of the rapper's entourage to become a tour manager and then the executive producer at the record label that bears his nickname.
Speaking to the publication Vice in 2016, Worthington said, "I was just the road guy. I worked my way to the top."
