For how long God had tried to speak to us gikuyu through our own artist. But the message fall on our deaf ears just because of our greedy and self centered characters. Time to step up hold each others hand and speak with one voice my community. FOR SURE GOD LOVES US
my dad had LPs back in those days, man I have loved Ndichu ever since...waiting for admin to organize a day tour we go and pay homage to Ngina and Mzee for giving us a son who left us good music
These people-Ndichu,Rugwiti(Banana Hill Band),DK,Nduru wa Gathoni(Rift Valley Brothers) were just simply amazing singer-songwritters-The best in our land for ever.
Nimejaribu kufuatilia history ya the late brother ndichu but sijawahi pata.tena nyimbo zake yenye iko na video but alikuwa mpoa na sauti na guitar iko juu sana continue resting in peace.
People talk about Kamaru but I believe John Ndichu is the greatest kikuyu artist of all time, closely followed by Makibi James, Kamaru 3rd,De Mathew 4th and Muraya Sammy 5th.

My wife n I are enjoying this song, as we pray and work hard n smart. May our children make it in life. One question though, what does he say on this part, "haitu Hagie iria kana no *****"?
We need to immortalise these greats in some way. I know more about Skeeter Davis than I know about Ndichu simply because there is very little written about him. How will our grand-children learn about these trail-blazers if we let them die uncelebrated?
True. I have searched for his biography, but never found any. I even don't know about when He was born nor his accomplishments. We need to celebrate our late artists, they had great impact on our societies
simply the beauty of original songs keeps going after all the remixes out there...Ndichu Rocks!!!! thanks Maina Chege for sharing these songs for others to get to listen what they were missing all along coz i thought i was the only one enjoying them in silence...Rwengo forever.
I first met John Ndicu in mid eighties at Coro Bar & Restaurant(now mutaratara mall)in mid eighties while I was in high school.It is at Coro,where I met all great kikuyu artists who shaped the careers of many.They were trail blazers.You would meet them also at Kagondo bar,river road.
He was mainly in the company of Wamumbe,his younger brother and his character was remarkable, committed to his career and not very outgoing. Next to Coro bar and Restaurant was Newton Njoroges SabaSaba music store.
@@Qwert4qwert3 Agree but i dont think the guy can compse he is just a one man guitar thats it for him, listen to mike ruas songs terrible.. but when he sings other ppls sounds so good
Could have been born in 1960-1 in Gatanga Murang'a .First hit was cucu wa Gakunga and Akinyi in 1980 while still in highschool,followed by Carolina and Nduku wa Mutuku same year.Went on to play several hits thereafter .Died in late 1990s in Thika district hospital .As reported in press ,his death was a result of stroke.

Listening to this song from Lagos Nigeria, and it makes me miss home. Great song, very potent message.
Ndichu, you were a real icon of our dear culture. You are well remembered through your timeless music
Imagine taking long drives listening to him aki ❤️
I love the song , the messge is almost identical to "ino nî thi - CDM Kiratu".
Rest in power Ndichu.
Wewe kifo kweli hunanga.... huruma.continue Resting in peace legend
People talk about Kamaru but I believe John Ndichu is the greatest kikuyu artist of all time, closely followed by Makibi James, Kamaru 3rd,De Mathew 4th and Muraya Sammy 5th.
Nonsense.
@@patrickkangethe604 yenyewe hiyo ni nonsense.
The message Ndichu and makibi were the best. Kiarutara got message too
Ndichu sure was actually talented. He would freestyle without writing his lyrics sometimes, but Kamaru had grit and dogged determination.
Gutiri Riaraga Na Ritiotwo
By John Ndichu na Ruwengo Brothers
Gutiri riaraga andu aitu kuna naritiotwo
Twi thii ino nginya turiote tondu niguo kuri X2
Nii Wanaruona w’narumenya oi arata ee
Gutiri ikayaga andu aitu kuna itari nume
Ndiraina nie ndimuhe uhoro oi arata ee
Ange makaiga ya rwanio ikuaga ona rwanio (Ngai!)
Uyu niundu umakitie andu - handu twaruma
Mwana wa university ni turn-boy
Uyu niundu umakitie andu handu twaruma
Mwana wa Kibiriri aratua kahua (Ngai!)
Ndiroria kwi muthenya ugakia ui arata ee
Haitu itura hagie iria kana no juisi ooi
Mbura igutura yuraga kuria iria-ini thiini
Kuria mai maingihire thi nyumu iture iri o nyumu
(igutura iri o nyumu!!)
Githikiririe micie miingi uigue haro ii
Ya mwana agigwitia mugunda ona kieya nduonire
Ni kaba kuhorwo mwiri oi arata ii
Handu ha haro ya heho tondu tinjega ….. (X2)
Ee niku ingithie ndihithe thina uyu uri thi
Na gutiri handu hatare na thina…
Nindathie Nairobi ndihithe kuo
Ndakora thina kou wakitie mwaki
Mwaki…aa
wanaRuwengo….
Verse 3 last line should read Kibirinji (referring to Cambridge University)
Mwana wa Cambridge (Form 4) aratua kahua.
Best musicians oof all times: kamaru, ndiichu, demathew, makibi, nduru, rugwiti etc.

This is what MUSIC is. Ndicu is my all time favorite and my friends know it.
It's the bass guitar for me. Gūtirī handu hatari thina.
I think this was a very significant song I learnt while in primary school.. It has been inspirational
R.I.P. Ndicu. Your beautiful music will be with us forever.

Forget Salim. His versions messes the sweetness of the music. He should compose his own songs.

The original ones r better than remixes
@@Qwert4qwert3 Uhm Salim is dead so he probably won't be composing anything soon. But it's possible to enjoy both versions.
