The Ugandan entertainment industry is in mourning following the passing of audio producer Skills On Da Beat.
He breathed his last in the wee hours of Wednesday morning after a prolonged battle with drugs.
He had been bedridden at Kiruddu Hospital for some good months until he eventually went to rest forever.
During an interview last year, Skills revealed how he had resorted to using drugs during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“I started smoking marijuana so that I could hype up my vibe. I started losing focus on my dreams in the industry. I could barely be in the studio to work,” Skills noted.
It was also alleged that he had run mad with reports that emerged claiming that he was being dragged to rehab to heal from using drugs.
Skills On Da Beat will be laid to rest at his ancestral home in Eastern Uganda.
Last year, he opened up about his addiction to drugs and shocked the nation. He also disclosed how he was working so hard to overcome the addiction something that did not come to pass.
