Don Cornelius’ son Tony says he spoke to his father just hours before his apparent suicide, describing it as a “call of urgency.”

Don Cornelius‘ son claims the late “Soul Train” creator phoned him just hours before he shot himself in the head — describing the last-minute outreach as a “call of urgency.”

Don’s son Tony Cornelius wouldn’t specify what the call was about — telling Gayle King on “CBS This Morning,” his dad’s health was failing and he was “unhappy about some things” in his life.

Tony told Gayle, “You have to be in a person’s shoes really to understand. Obviously, me being extremely close to him, I could tell that he was uncomfortable.”

Tony added, “But our family could never know that he would — how uncomfortable he really was.”
