Robin was most recently hospitalized last month with pneumonia.Robin's family released a statement saying, "The family of Robin Gibb, of the Bee Gees, announce with great sadness that Robin passed away today following his long battle with cancer and intestinal surgery." The Brother trio, the Bee Gees was made up of Robin's twin brother Maurice, and his oldest brother Barry. The group amassed nine #1 hits on Billboards' Hot 100, making them one of the most successful pop music bands of all time.
