Morillo released his 1994 hit, I Like To Move It, under the name Reel 2 Real.

It became a retro hit again after a remix was featured in the 2005 animated film Madagascar.

His death came less than a month after his arrest for sexually assaulting a female DJ, after working a gig together.

Morillo had denied the sexual assault charge, but turned himself in after a rape kit identified him as the suspect, according to WPLG-TV in Florida.

He had been scheduled for a court hearing a few days after he was found dead.
