As reported by the Daily Mail, toxicology tests have been conducted on Payne's body after his death at age 31 on October 16.

Citing the police and public prosecutor's office, the outlet revealed that traces of cocaine, benzodiazepines, crack cocaine, and "pink cocaine" – a combination of methamphetamine, ketamine, and MDMA – were found in his system.

An improvised aluminum pipe for smoking crack cocaine and various substances – including white powder, prescription drugs, and traces of chemical crystals – were also found in the musician's hotel room.
