Going to miss our random calls, your sarcasm, your big smile and most of all just hanging out and jamming. U asked me to feature and do a remix of your song “ I love u” which is my favourite song by u and u kept calling asking me when we were hitting the studio to record it and I kept on procrastinating.? Probably 1 of the things I regret doing. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would lose u. Will do my best to celebrate your life and not be sad about your sudden departure. I Love u ntwana yam and may u rest in eternal peace.?
