A Kenyan DJ working with a local media house has died after collapsing at his workplace in the capital Nairobi.
Police are investigating the cause of his death after colleagues told local media that he deactivated his social media accounts, texted family and friends and left a note.
DJ Lithium was taken to a hospital in the city by colleagues but doctors said he died on arrival.
Kenyans online have been eulogising him and sending condolences to his family:
