Singer David Mathenge, alias Nameless has paid tribute to the late singer E-sir who died 20 years ago.
Nameless remembered the late singer who worked closely with him before his life was cut short.
He shared a photo of E-sir and noted that the rapper is a timeless inspiration in the music industry.
He thanked him for being an authentic friend.
"It's been 20 years since you left us on that fateful 16th March morning! 🙏🏿😔...Bro, Thank you for helping me see what true synergy and authentic friendship feels like...our mutual respect produced amazing result that has lasted generations...
You are an inspiration to many and your life and work has had a lasting impact on me and our industry...
Keep Resting well my friend! You are forever in my heart! Fam, What was your favourite Esir Song as we show some 20 year love to SouthCs Finest. #20yearEsirAnniversary #EsirHatuchekiNaWatu #SouthCsFinest."
Esir died in 2003 after being involved in a tragic road accident.
He was only 22 years old and was doing so well in the music industry.
He died while returning to Nairobi from a concert in Nakuru.
E-Sir's brother Habib earlier on said that on that fateful day Esir had already bid them goodbye.
'It's like he knew he wouldn't be here for long. We were having a conversation and he told me that he was not coming back. He told me to take care of our mum.
He asked between him and my mum whose death would hurt me the most."
Adding:
'When I told him his death would affect me he told me I was stupid because it was our mum who loved me more.
Even on the day, he died my mum had told him not to go for the album launch as she did not have a good feeling about it but he still went. On the day he died, he told me nikienda sitarudi.
Even when we received the news of his death I never accepted the news till I saw his body.
Seeing his body affected me to date."
