 George “Funky” Brown, drummer for legendary group Kool & The Gang, has passed away at the age of 74.

We are sad to learn that George “Funky” Brown, drummer for legendary group Kool & The Gang, has passed away at the age of 74.

TMZ exclusively reports that the musician died at his Los Angeles home on Thursday night (Nov. 16) following a battle with stage 4 cancer.

Brown was diagnosed with lung cancer a few years earlier and was in remission for a while. Brown returned to touring with the group for some time before the cancer returned earlier this year.
