  • The song was great and really catchy and I have a feeling that it would have been really popular even without Makmende. Still, it feels even better with him, like, they complete each other, if that makes any sense. Just a great job all around. That's all there is to say.

    Actually, wait. That's not all.

    Makmende > Dolemite.

    NOW, that is all.

  • The only thing that the Universe still active is because Makmende Amerudi and Chuck Norris is a friend. Eventually, if they meet each other, the universe will be divided by zero and at the same time, zero divided itself by zero.

  • @Soundnous This is an awesome comment, and now when ever I see that part, I can't help laughing. lol Duh!! Why didn't they just run him over????? :D Or maybe Makemende made them stop with the power of the hand. :)

  • Why the fuck can't I get this out of my head.

  • Whoah the tune at the credits was wayy better than the actual song! 

  • They got some beautiful video girls.

  • I just realized today that the dialogue is lifted from "Waking Life".

  • this should be core curriculum in american public schools

  • This is the coolest.

  • I like how over 100,000 hits is supposed to be a viral video in Kenya, while that would barely amount to 20 theoretical American dollars here.

  • @mushroomcloudy Well considering that the population in the US is more than 8 times the Kenyan population, 100,000 views is pretty AWESOME

  • @mushroomcloudy Well considering that the population in the US is more than 8 times the Kenyan population, 100,000 views is pretty AWESOME

  • ati niliskia makmende huplay bano na grenade... ;-))))

  • Just a Band, please make more songs like this! I love this song so much.

  • Eti "dame amejam/juu dough haicome/na siwezi kimshow juu/ntatupiwa sufuria/"

    For a while I've been labelled a wannabe coz I have always snobbed much of Kenyan music due to lack of content and almost-good production. I really hope you guys reap the rewards of your good work, despite the business model for the whole industry failing. Good luck!

  • weird, i wonder why so much of the dialogue is from waking life?

  • i swear from 0:00 to 1:41 i thought he was beating guys that r wearing sun glasses o.O

  • I like it! Let's invade!

  • After watching this, I've realized that Kenya clearly possesses the capability to weaponize Makmende, and this terrifies me.

  • @RobtheStampede

    You err in assuming that Makmende would submit to *any* authority.

  • @RobtheStampede

    Lol thank god the Bush Administration didn't catch wind of this...

  • @RobtheStampede If they possessed that ability, we'd already be dead.
