Netizens often spread false information online purely for momentary popularity. It is important to verify such announcements by credible news publications. Considering his popularity, his management team would have surely released a statement if he had passed away.

Cblu is not the only celebrity to have become a victim to an internet death hoax. Several high profile stars including Jaden Smith, Adam Sandler, Justin Bieber and DJ Khaled amongst others have also been rumoured to have died when they are still alive.
