Documents seen by The Sun show he passed 20 per cent of the estate – £624,000 – to Soka Gakkai International (SGI), a Buddhist charity based in India. Jazz, real name Maxwell Fraser, was a devout follower of Buddhism after his then-girlfriend introduced it to him in the early 1990s.

Most read in Showbiz Born in Brixton, South London, Jazz was best known for stints on pirate radio stations in the late 1980s and was nearly 40 when Faithless formed in 1995.

He gave proper meaning and message to our music. "He was also a lovely human being with time for everyone and a wisdom that was both profound and accessible. "It was an honour and, of course, a true pleasure to work with him. "He was a brilliant lyricist, a DJ, a Buddhist , a magnificent stage presence, car lover, endless talker, beautiful person, moral compass and genius.' The star was a huge fan of After his death, the South London side walked out to Faithless at Selhurst Park as a tribute. Club chairman Steve Parish said: "He was such a huge talent, a massive supporter of the club in every way and just a wonderful kind-hearted man. "He made the world dance, sing and laugh and someone I was privileged to call a friend. RIP Maxi." 5 Jazz, real name Maxwell Fraser, was a devout follower of Buddhism Credit: Getty 5 Faithless led tributes to its former leader after Maxi was found dead at his South London home Credit: Getty

Main Stage singer forced to pull out of All Together Now
All Together Now has lost one of their top performers just days before getting underway after Michael Kiwanuka pulled out due to illness. The UK folk/soul singer announced the cancellation of a number of summer gigs, including the Waterford festival, after being advised by doctors not to perform. Michael was one of most highly-anticipated musicians getting ready to play in front of a sold-out All Together Now at Waterford's Curraghmore Estate this August Bank Holiday weekend. Michael Kiwanuka was forced to cancel a number of shows due to illness. Pic: Aldara Zarraoa/WireImage Unfortunately, fans travelling to Curraghmore hoping to see Michael will be left disappointed after his announcement on social media. It read: 'We are so sorry to announce that due to continued illness, and on the advice of doctors, Michael will sadly be unable to perform at the rest of his scheduled festival performances throughout the rest of the summer. 'We know that this is disappointing news to hear, and nobody is more disappointed and saddened than Michael to no longer be taking to the stage as planned.' Michael was due to perform at the Main Stage from 8.15pm to 9.30pm on Sunday, August 3. It is yet to be announced who will take his place but All Together Now confirmed on social media that the Main Stage schedule will be updated on the app in the near future. Michael Kiwanuka was due to perform on the main stage. Pic: Roberto Ricciuti/Redferns Michael is a Mercury Award-winning singer and his absence will no doubt be felt at the festival. He was also forced to pull out of a headlining tour of North America, in support of 2024 album Small Changes, with his illness. All Together Now attendees do however have a wide range of other artists at their disposal, with Fontaines DC, Bicep and Nelly Furtado headlining the festival. Other huge stars include CMAT, London Grammar, The Altered Hours, Wet Leg, Primal Scream, The Boomtown Rats and Madra Salach. There will also be live comedy from the likes of Tommy Tiernan and Reggie Watts. Despite the notable loss of Michael Kiwanuka from the lineup, there is no doubt that the 30,000 festival-goers are in for a cracking Bank Holiday weekend.
