As Uganda celebrated 55 years of independence, music fraternity mourned the Jahlive hero, the young hero Danz kumapeesa.  Danz was attacked and beaten on June 4th by unknown people while he was returning home and from that time, he has been in coma at Nsambya hospital till his eventual death.
Though his death comes this way, several Ugandans had pledged towards recovering the life of this young star thru individual donations or charity fundraisings. On July 1st, a fundraising car wash drive was organized at Panamera.  Local celebrities like Juliana Kanyomozi, Bobi Wine, Nutty Neithan among others all contributed to the Danz to cater for his accumulating medical bills at Nsambya hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) which raised around Shs7m.
On August 23rd, Bebe Cool also went to Nsambya and donated Shs5m and challenged fellow musicians and stakeholders in the entertainment industry to come forth and fundraise for Danz’s medical treatment. His challenge was embraced by some and in total, over Shs30m was collected which was in excess of the Shs20m he needed to be discharged from hospital.
Artists also agreed that a musical concert had to be organized to get more money in order for him to continue receiving treatment from home. The successful concert happened on 17th September and came a success. Though rumours has it that some money was stolen in the process. According to the mother of the deceased, only Shs1.5m was delivered to them as proceeds from the concert and before even the organizers were brought to book, the producer passed on 19 days later.
