Producer Sidney “Omen” Brown, who has worked with the likes of Beyoncé, Drake and more, has died at the age of 49.

According to NBC News , Brown’s body was discovered in his New York apartment on Saturday by his sister, Nicole Iris Brown, after he didn’t show up for a DJ gig.

“He was holistic and healthy. So, we don’t know of him being sick, so this is all pretty sudden,” Omen’s sister said in a statement. “I hope people will remember that he was willing to help the younger generation.”

“He was always big on helping younger people start their careers and get themselves into the game. It was about just the music, no matter who the artist was,” she added.

“The cause and manner of death are pending further study,” the New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner told Variety .
