The long-time CEO of Xterminator Records suffered complications from a stroke that occurred two weeks ago; slipping into a coma on Saturday morning before succumbing to the complications Saturday evening. Burrell spent the last two weeks at the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI) receiving treatment for his stroke.
Burrell’s condition deteriorated on Tuesday when doctors discovered a blood clot close to his lungs.
Family members of Burrell expressed their gratitude towards friends, fans, industry players and hospital staff who supported and cared for the producer during his ordeal; asking the public for prayers during their time of grief.
Burrell played an integral part in launching the careers of many Reggae superstars including Luciano, Pinchers and Sanchez as well as Sizzla, who he managed in recent years. Additionally, Burrell worked with other internationally-acclaimed Reggae acts such as Beres Hammond, Capleton, Gregory Isaacs, Cocoa Tea and Gentleman, amongst several others.
