D Star is the man of the moment, making news across the country thanks to his song "Hozambe," which is trending across social media platforms.

The hitmaker has applauded the NBS After 5 host for offering him a platform and support while he was struggling in the ghettos of Bwaise.

D Star narrated that he once crossed paths with Douglas, who gifted him twenty thousand Uganda shillings and offered him a platform on one of his shows back then.

"I have much love and appreciation for Douglas Lwanga. He is a man I will always appreciate; he once gave me twenty thousand and even recorded my video. I think he had seen potential in me," the Hozambe hitmaker partly said in an interview with a local television station.

D Star also promised to pay back Douglas Lwanga when he eventually makes it big financially.
