Robbie Pardlo, the lead singer for Grammy-nominated R&B group City High, has died.
He was 46.
A rep for the singer told TMZ that he died on Thursday, July 17 surrounded by family and friends in Willingboro, New Jersey.
TMZ said that no cause
of death has been determined.
City High had a brief but brilliant run in the early 2000s with its hit single “What Would You Do?” getting plenty of airtime on MTV and BET in 2001. The song, which was produced by Wyclef Jean, made it to number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned the group a nomination for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group.
The group’s 2001 self-titled studio album also did well, and produced another hit single, “Caramel” with rap star Eve.
Despite its success, the group broke up in 2003. TMZ noted that Pardlo went on to have some success with another R&B group — First Take — and worked with the likes of Whitney Houston and Lil Kim.
The outlet also noted that Pardlo was a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles.
