Crazy Town frontman Shifty Shellshock’s cause of death has been revealed after the musician died at the age of 49 on Monday, June 24
After the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed that Shellshock was found dead in his home at the age of 49 on Monday, June 24, the band’s manager told People that the rapper died of an accidental drug overdose.
'Seth Binzer, after struggling with addiction and Crazy Town's rapid success with 'Butterfly,' never was able to reach out on a more successful level to deal with his addictions,' Hubberman told the outlet in a Thursday, June 27, statement. 'We all tried, but ultimately we all failed, or Shifty would still be here.”
The statement continued, 'The cause of death was a combination of prescription drugs and street purchased drugs. Shifty was a friend and really wanted to get himself fixed — unfortunately no one had the exact tools to do this, myself included.'A rep for Shellshock previously told Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 25, that the musician was a “courageous fighter full of talent, light, compassion, love and grace.
“He will be missed by so many. He was one of those souls that was magnetic,” the rep shared in a statement. “We will miss you, Seth. Thank you for your talents and contributions to our music industry. We were all blessed to have had you.” Shellshock cofounded rap rock band Crazy Town with Bret “Epic” Mazur in 1995. The group’s 2000 single “Butterfly” catapulted the group to fame and became their biggest hit, peaking at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also helped their debut album, The Gift of Game, climb to No. 9 on the Billboard 200 more than a year after its release.
