Comment:	Just stumbled upon this forum as I was searching for more news on Tendai Gamure aka Culture-T as I was listening to the track Satani on Youtube. I remember the last time I spoke to him back in Harare in 2004 to launch his last gospel album. I was editor of the Mirror newspapers and he had come to promote his album through the press. I was starstruck from meeting the man me and lots of youngsters used to idolise growing up in Zim listening to Transit crew (I even recited to him a few lines from the track Reggae Malitis). He laughed it off modestly, explaining his spiritual journey, how he had found God and was upbeat about his Gospel career. We published a good review of his album and also covered his album launch show at the Harare Gardens. Two years after I'd also come to settle in England I read in the papers of his untimely death. I'm glad he had done his part to spread the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ through music. Having become prominent as a secular musician and generated a mass following among the ghetto youth, Tendai's turn to God also inspired many of his followers to take up the cross and follow Christ. I'm sure he has received his just reward, and though its many years now since he's passed I know that his family will always have his presence in their hearts and minds at all times. At least they can take heart in the fact that he died after having run a good race for God. R.I.P mkoma Tendai!
