De'Mathew was a prophet. In this song, he summarised his career by giving vote of thanks to those who made him a legend. In his number 1 hit song "My Dear Nduku", De'Mathew talked about a sudden car accident that robbed him of his girlfriend, Peris Nduku. Coincidentally, death has robbed us of our dear John through fatal car accident. The last words he said to his family "Andu matarirwo kwao" (translated as people be counted from where they come from), still echo in my mind. Apparently, during the ongoing census in Kenya, he was already gone and counted among angels in heaven. Rest in peace Legend!! You will forever be remembered for your contribution to benga and fighting the real enemy which is destroying humanity- alcohol and poor leadership. I am not as old as my father to know you more, but your songs struck a unique tune to my ear, hence I will miss you dearly. Talk of the signature 'waka waka waka', 'shamah shamah shamah' or 'aiyaya', in your songs, all said in your unique tone, made me distinguish your works from the rest. I think it is also the influence of my dad because he would always buy every lastest VCD you sold. I'm sure he was not aware whether the CDs were original or pirated, but one thing he believed is that he was supporting your ministry. Meanwhile, a picture of you (1m by 1m) hangs in my dad's living room.
I am Nigeria......Its really hard for me to understand his music.....I love this man so much ....still cant believe you have gone....Rest on great musician of our time
