There is music... then there oracles whose voices carry healing for generations. those who connect the hearts of the children to the hearts of the fathers. Kwame is such a one. bringing back light to the hearts of the children. Thank you my brother. its an honour to live in your lifetime. to align with your timeline.
whomever says Kikuyu is lost within us is wrong, its all within us awaiting to be stirred upon us and honestly the more I listen to this it does stir up that part called Kikuyu within
This is meditation in its purest form. Kwame Rigii is a Gikuyu poet of the highest caliber. Kungu mwana wa Nyumba ya Mumbi! Thank you for being unapologetically Mugikuyu!
My mother as a young girl, was one of a group of girls who would risk their lives to go take food to the fighters in the forest. One being Dedan kimathi. It was perilous. Some died. We remember them all with pride and honour.❤❤❤
Listening to these songs, I feel like I once lived in the years of our ancestors, waay before the colonial time. Why my spirit finds peace in this song?. I feel it. Be blessed Kwame.

@@Poetry_with_dolly I grew up in upcountry and did it as a subject..then when conversing with my mates we use kikuyu..it's a damn sweet language,keep trying by using it as your first communication language with your fellow kokuyus,buy mother tongue books and also you can listen to vernacular stations.
Thank you for your tips ..I speak fluent kikuyu writing is my problem..I will definitely follow your advice. I’ll come back and probably write another thank you in correct kikuyu

This is a very gifted man indeed. He has realised that we have deviated from our culture. And its high time we revisit those cultures. The culrure that define us. Our nature. He really challange me. Message zake huwa zinanituma kwa mawazo sana. Good job
Kudos Kwame, for good work and a great inspiration to seal this gap of reminding us of what we lost in this colonial deception to leave our culture calling it primitivity, while hypocritically they stole our cultural artifact and kept them in their museums where they earn a lot of money through tourism who goes to learn our African culture in their museums.
Just found myself listening to this again and again... Your Songs calms my soul..It also keeps reminding that i MUST appreciate my CULTURE and not just appreciating but LOVING IT TOO 💯.We dont deserve You Kwame.You are a GEM and we are not showing you enough.Keep Winning Kwame 🎼🦁.Keep Shinning. Tur~i A Mumbi~
As our ancestors were called to sacrifice their lives for the freedom of this beautiful country... I wonder what Kwame, You, are called for? May it be for a most noble path.❤
Kwame you are a real poet. Very artistic and talented. It is ashame that we do not have a museum in Kenya where we can learn about freedom fighters. Your art work would be resourceful to the museum. God bless you my brada. I respect your thoughts as a very young man❤ 🇺🇸
