Avicii's health issues were no secret to the public for several years prior to his death. He suffered from acute pancreatitis, in part due to excessive drinking. In 2014, he canceled numerous shows in order to recover after having his gallbladder and appendix removed. 
In 2016, he surprised his fans by announcing his retirement. "I decided that this 2016 tour would be the last and that it would be my last shows. The scene was not for me. It was not the shows and not the music. It was always the other stuff surrounding it that never came naturally to me. All the other parts of being an artist. I'm more of an introverted person in general. It was always very hard for me. I took on board too much negative energy, I think." he wrote justifying this decision with the desire to do "more of his life." He collaborated with artists from different backgrounds like Madonna, Coldplay or David Guetta and has risen twice in the third place of the ranking of the best DJs in the world, in 2012 and 2013, according to DJ Magazine, the reference in the field.

The announcement of his sudden death has generated a Huge Shock among many fans and artists on Twitter.
