Irv Gotti has reportedly died. He was 54.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the Murder Inc. founder’s cause of death is unknown.
Reps for Gotti weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
The music mogul’s death comes several months after he reportedly had a stroke and was admitted to a recovery center, Wack100 shared in August 2024, per TMZ.
The talent manager, 47, also claimed to have received a photo of Gotti using a cane, noting that he had “lost a lot of weight.”
Gott’s rep, meanwhile, clarified to the outlet that his client had “been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago.
“He has since changed his diet to eating more healthy. He’s been successful in making a full recovery. Irv is not in a rehab facility. He is at home with his family, enjoying life.”
Gotti — born Irving Domingo Lorenzo Jr. — previously discussed his health struggles during an appearance on the “Drink Champs” podcast in August 2023.
The record producer shared that diabetes started “deteriorating” his body and he didn’t have his condition under control despite having it “forever.”
“It’s hereditary,” he said about his illness, admitting he also wasn’t consistent with taking his insulin.
Fellow musicians and celebrities have taken to social media to address reports that Gotti was on life support just before his death, including 50 Cent.
Alongside a screenshot of a report that read Gotti was “on life support” and his loved ones were “saying their goodbyes,” the “In da Club” rapper wrote, “👀Damn I wanted him to see my new shows yo! 😔.”
Russell Simmons reshared the same post and said he was “praying” for the “Gotti’s Way” star’s “full recovery.”
The record executive described Gotti as a “fun,” “inspired” and “good hearted person,” adding that those his “age and younger … are seeing the effects of toxic food and a toxic environment.”
“Try to make the necessary changes in your and your families (sic) diets and lifestyles,” he wrote.
Gotti was previously wed to Debbie Lorenzo from the early 2000s to 2013, and the exes share three kids together: Angie, and sons JJ and Sonny.
