Musicians that performed at the just concluded ‘Danz Kumapesa Charity Concert’ to raise money for the treatment of the renowned producer are furious.
Following an attack by thugs, Dan Kumapeesa has been battling for his life for the past five months at Nsambya Hospital; he feeds through a tube and wears pampers to control his stool.
So the concert was intended to raise funds to clear his medical bill that has since accumulated to millions, and over 50 artistes including Bebe Cool, Eddy Kenzo, Rema, Ykee Benda, Nutty Neithan among others performed at the concert they deemed a success.
However, not all seems to be fine with the accountability and the artistes are angry, with MC Kats, singer Fille’s manager, saying the concert was well attended and that the organisers hardly incurred any costs.
“Really hurt. Really pissed. I was contacted to help Danz Kumapeesa did my best and just now  calling Danz mum to check on her and she says she received 1.5m from the concert. Waat bull crap is this?
With all artistes that performand last nite you people are heartless,” MC Kats begins his rant.
“Laftaz gave us a free venue, free sound and free adverts on Bukedde you refused this was all your plan sh..t oohh God. We need Danz Kumapeesa money for whatever it will take…” MC Kats added.
After turning down the free offers at Laftaz, the concert was held Sunday at Calendar Hotel in Makindye, Kampala. The organisers, who reportedly are the owners of Calendar Hotel, claim to have raised over six million from ticket sales though just Shs1.5million was handed to the ailing producer’s mother.
Some of the artistes that performed at the concert have since joined Kats to demand for the money.
“They are joking, they will bring that money. How heartless can people be really! Without shame someone hands over 1.5m yet it was a full house,” musician Lydia Jazmine, who was among the performers, fumed.
“There is a lot of foolery in this business. It’s the same thing I told my manager yesterday that it might happen….” Rema remarked.
