From the article:

Comedian and Chicago native Bernie Mac died early Saturday morning from complications due to pneumonia, his publicist confirmed. Mac, 50, had been hospitalized for about a week at Northwestern Hospital, according to his spokeswoman. A few years ago, Mac disclosed that he suffered from sarcoidosis, a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in tissue, most often in the lungs.

Damn...

    That’s sad. 50 is much too young to go.

    Yeah man, I was super bummed out about this. How tragic - so young too.

    I just watched "Who’s the Man" on Comedy Central the other day. He was like 30 in that movie. It was so awesome seeing him so young and funny as shit.
