Apparently he had quite the cocaine habit, and his body just gave out after so many years of it. :(

Oh well he was asking to die if he truelly had a cocaine habit. I can see if it was for social use like once every few months but to actually need it all the time is just fucking sick. Do these guys become so rich that they can't find what to do wioth his money? Its truely a shame dying that way:(

He was an American musician. He had his own unique funky kind of style. In the 80's he became known as the "Super Freak" due to a song by the same name that got a lot of attention on the charts and MTV.

Hammer made a lot of money and got noticed very fast with that particular song. I agree that he didn't do "Super Freak" any justice. Hammers time in the spotlight didn't last long.
