17 Years on. Never Forgotten

[mzeiya]

2003 o a day like this, t'was a fine Sunday lazing pale mtaa na maboyz tukikatia madem then Brayo comes running from kejani kwao and tells us the most distressing news I remember having concerning a 'celeb'.

Apparently, on their way back from Nakuru where they'd performed at Club Dimples with Nameless on the wheel, they had gotten an accident and Issah Mmari aka Esir was no more.

Fuck, the kid was talented. May he always RIP.
Here's a tribute mix to the best we've had for a long time.

17 years later most of his songs are still hits. I used to live near their place so the following day I had to pass by their house and pay my last respects. They had put the body on the bed inside his bedroom.

I was that little kid who knew all his song lyrics Love his songs hadi wa leo..... Msiniulize nilikuwa class ngapi.

He would have been 39 this year. He was a true superstar.
