Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were passengers on a Learjet that crashed last night in Columbia, South Carolina, killing four.

According to CNN, the jet crashed while taking off at the Columbian Metropolitan Airport late last night. There were six people on board and only Barker and AM are reported to have survived. AM was air lifted to the Joseph Still Burn Center in Augusta, GA., while Barker was driven to the center to be treated for burns.

Since working with Blink-182, Barker has collaborated with many big names in hip-hop. Along with his recent work with The Game on L.A.X., he also is known by hip-hop fans for his drum remixes of rap songs such as Soulja Boy's "Crank That" and Busta Rhymes' "Don't Touch Me."

DJ AM, a popular DJ on the Hollywood party scene, was once engaged to Nicole Richie. He and Barker have recently released a joint mixtape called Fix Your Face.

According to the Wistv, the deceased have been identified by Lexington County Coroner Harry Harman as California residents Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, Chris Baker, 29, of Studio City and Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles are the passengers who perished in the crash.
