Toby Keith, a country singer known for hit songs including “Beer for My Horses” and “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” died on Monday. He was 62.

He “passed peacefully” on Monday night, his official X account said in a statement on Tuesday.

The “Red Solo Cup” singer said in June 2022 that he’d been diagnosed with stomach cancer and was “receiving chemo, radiation and surgery.”

“He fought his fight with grace and courage,” Tuesday’s statement said. “Please respect the privacy of his family at this time.”

ABC News confirmed his death with a representative.
