Rapper’s Family Begs for Cash: ‘Da L.E.S’ Left to Rot in Private Hospital
The once-illustrious career of South African rapper Da L.E.S has hit rock bottom, with his family resorting to social media begging for donations to cover his staggering medical bills. The rapper, real name Leslie Jonathan Mampe Jr., suffered a stroke last week and is currently hospitalized in Johannesburg.
But instead of offering words of encouragement, the public has turned on the ailing artist, with many taking to Twitter to express their outrage at his family’s audacity. "Why should we pay for Da L.E.S’ private hospital bills when he’s been eating alone?" asked one Twitter user.
The backlash has been fierce, with many calling for the rapper to be transferred to a public hospital. "Da L.E.S should be treated like any other South African citizen," tweeted another user. "Why should we pay for his private healthcare when our public hospitals are struggling?"
The controversy has sparked a heated debate about healthcare in South Africa, with many questioning why the country’s wealthy elite are able to afford private healthcare while the rest of the population is left to struggle in public hospitals.
Meanwhile, Da L.E.S’ fans are left to wonder if their beloved rapper has become a symbol of the country’s deep-seated healthcare inequality. As one Twitter user put it, "Da L.E.S is a reminder that in South Africa, your wealth determines your access to healthcare. It’s a sad state of affairs."
The drama has unfolded with lightning speed, with the hashtag #DaLES trending on Twitter as the public weighs in on the controversy. Will Da L.E.S’ family find the cash they need to cover his medical bills, or will the rapper be forced to rely on the public healthcare system? Only time will tell.
