Surprise
Back in the day I lived in a college dorm with a dorm mate. The dorm room next to us was an upper classman with a room by himself, who was cool, but always complained we were too loud. One weekend he left town for a few days and left on his stereo with the volume turned up playing Gansta’s Paradise on repeat. I really liked the song, but by the third day we had definitely learned our lesson :) RIP Coolio

Coolio's cause of death has been revealed, and it's one that continues to plague not only the entertainment industry, but the country as a whole ... fentanyl.

Family spokesperson, Jarel (Jarez) Posey tells TMZ ... Coolio's loved ones just got the news from the coroner -- fentanyl killed the rapper -- and he also had traces of heroin and methamphetamines in his system.

Jarez tells us investigators determined Coolio's severe asthma and decades-long use of cigarettes also played a factor in his death and his body's inability to fight back.
