Na tarde de 9 de novembro de 2017 Mosley foi encontrado morto, pela sua
namorada, Pip Logan, e um amigo, no chão da sala da sua casa em Cleveland. Muitas drogas foram encontradas no local, com a polícia suspeitando que a causa da morte fosse overdose de heroína.
Em 2004, Kiedis lançou a sua autobiografia intitulada Scar Tissue, e em 2009, foi homenageado pelo 5th Annual MusiCares MAP Fund Benefit Concert em Los Angeles, Califórnia.
Wilk started his career as a drummer for Greta in 1990, and helped co-found Rage Against the Machine with Tom Morello and Zack de la Rocha in August 1991. Following that band's breakup in October 2000, Wilk, Morello, Rage Against the Machine bassist Tim Commerford and Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell
formed the supergroup Audioslave, which broke up in 2007. From 2016 to
2019, he played in the band Prophets of Rage, with Commerford, Morello, Chuck D, B-Real and DJ Lord. He has played with Rage Against the Machine since their reunion.
Wilk has also performed drums on English metal band Black Sabbath's final album 13, released in June 2013. He briefly played with Pearl Jam shortly after the release of their debut album Ten and had previously been in the band Indian Style with Eddie Vedder.
Veterano do cenário do rock 'n' roll de Boston, Gary apareceu sob os holofotes como o vocalista da multi-platinada banda Extreme
em 1989. Conhecidos pela sua música de arranjos trabalhados, os
Extreme tiveram vários hits, incluindo o top 5 "Hole Hearted" e o #1 em
vários países, "More Than Words". Com isso eles venderam 10 milhões
de discos no planeta (total aproximado da carreira).
Depois que os Extreme saíram de cena em 1996, Gary aceitou um convite para substituir Sammy Hagar como o vocalista da legendária banda de rock Van Halen.
Com os Van Halen Gary gravou o disco VH III, que não teve o sucesso
de vendas que a gravadora esperava. A turnê nos EUA em 1998, no
entanto, foi muito boa para a banda e para o público, lotando todas as
casas onde tocaram. Devido a pressões da gravadora, Cherone
eventualmente deixou os Van Halen para formar a banda moderna de hard
rock Tribe of Judah.
A lista de pontos altos em sua carreira também inclui ter cantado à frente do Queen no Tributo a Freddie Mercury
em 1992 (uma performance que foi transmitida para mais de oitenta
países e foi vista por mais de mil milhões de pessoas) e passagens pelo
teatro musical, incluindo os papéis principais em produções de Jesus Christ Superstar.
No seu último trabalho inédito, um EP chamado "Need I say more",
Cherone colaborou com a equipa de produção Nero. A nova música de
Cherone é um híbrido de soul, pop, rock e folk.
Em 2006, Gary reuniu-se aos antigos companheiros dos Extreme para alguns shows no nordeste dos Estados Unidos.
No mesmo ano Gary participou do Amazing Journey, tributo do baterista Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) aos The Who, que contou com a participação de Billy Sheehan no baixo e Paul Gilbert na guitarra, ambos membros originais dos Mr. Big. Desde então tem continuado a tocar covers dos The Who na banda Slipkid, juntamente com o seu irmão Markus Cherone, o antigo baixista dos Extreme Paul Mangone e outros amigos.
Hillel Slovak (Haifa, Israel, April 13, 1962 – Los Angeles, California, June 25, 1988) was an Israeli-American musician, best known as the founding guitarist of the Los Angeles rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, with whom he recorded two albums. His guitar work was rooted in funk and hard rock, and he often experimented with other genres, including reggae and speed metal. He is considered to have been a major influence on Red Hot Chili Peppers' early sound.
Slovak, Flea, Kiedis, and Irons founded Red Hot Chili Peppers in
1983, gaining popularity in Los Angeles through their energetic stage
presence and spirited performances. Slovak eventually quit to focus on
What is This?, which had been signed to a record deal, leaving the Red
Hot Chili Peppers to record their 1984 debut album without him, including five songs he co-wrote. Slovak rejoined the Chili Peppers in 1985 and recorded the albums Freaky Styley (1985) and The Uplift Mofo Party Plan (1987) with them.
During his career, Slovak developed a serious heroin addiction. He attempted to rehabilitate
several times but died of an overdose on June 25, 1988, at age 26.
Several Red Hot Chili Peppers songs have been written as tributes to
Slovak, including "Knock Me Down", "My Lovely Man", and "Feasting on the Flowers". In 1999, his brother James published a book, Behind the Sun: The Diary and Art of Hillel Slovak, which features Slovak's diaries and paintings. Slovak was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers on April 14, 2012, with his brother accepting the award on his behalf.

Na sua família, ele é o mais jovem das 5 crianças. O seu pai foi um engenheiro aeroespacial e sua mãe foi uma matemática.
O Pai de Commerford já foi divorciado e casou novamente, enquanto que sua mãe se mudou para Sacramento, Califórnia para viver com sua irmã, antes de ela morrer de cancro no cérebro, quando Commerford tinha 20 anos.
Zack de la Rocha e ele tornaram-se amigos na escola primária, quando Tim mostrou a Zack como se roubava comida do café do colégio.
Commerford tem inúmeras tatuagens,
incluindo uma que cobre as suas costas, braços, peito e perna
esquerda. A sua primeira tatuagem foi uma faixa preta em torno de seu
braço, em homenagem à sua mãe.
Commerford é fã de jazz e é um fanático por mountain bike, chegando ao ponto de incluir agradecimentos às suas bicicletas no encarte do disco The Battle of Los Angeles.
Ele ficou em oitavo lugar na lista dos 20 maiores baixistas da revista Paste em 2014.
