Singer Attrell Cordes dies

Attrel "Prince Be" Cordes, founding member of the chart-topping hip-hop duo PM Dawn, has died in a New Jersey hospital on Friday following a battle with renal kidney disease. He was 46.
A representative for the group confirmed Cordes' death to People magazine.
Attrell starred in PM Dawn with his brother Jarrett Cordes, also known as Doc G, and his sibling paid tribute to his late brother in a post on their official Facebook page.
"Prince Be Rest In Peace forever more," Jarrett wrote.
"Pain from Diabetes can't harm you anymore, My Heart is at Peace B-Cuz U suffered so long, Tell Grandma I said Hi & Stay Blisstatic (sic) & Strong."

Attrell and Jarrett formed PM Dawn in 1988, drawing their name from the idea that "in the darkest hour comes the light."
The duo had a number one hit on the US singles charts in 1991 with set Adrift on Memory Bliss, and also found success with songs such as "Looking Through Patient Eyes" and "I'd Die Without You", the latter of which was featured in Eddie Murphy's 1992 comedy "Boomerang".
The brothers released three more albums together before parting ways as a musical act.
