Every time the hit song, ‘Amka ukatike‘ was played, the crowd would change the location to a dance hall. The young talented Mohammed Abdul Karim famously known as Czars carried the crown of music back in the days. As young as he was, his music made him famous over all artistes.

Unfortunately, Czars disappeared never to be traced on October 13th, 2006. In the year 2017, Kenyans had started spreading rumors that he had been spotted. However, his father, Abdulkarim Makasi denied the allegations.

He said; “I am not aware of, or know where they got this information from and to make matters worse they went ahead to publish the information without my knowledge. I will do whatever it takes to ensure that those behind the rumours are brought to justice.”

Czars was one of the popular local musicians whose music ruled the local music before disappearing into oblivion- never to be heard or seen again. At that time of his disappearance the 17- year – old’s music career was not only at its peak but he was equally the hottest thing in town winning several awards like Chaguo la Teeniez and Fanta Pure Fresh Oxygen Talent Search.

Indeed his chartbuster Amka Ukatike was an anthem that made him the pride of Mombasa and his parents as well. Prior to his mysterious disappearance, C-zar shared stage with Jamaica’s Sean Paul, Tanzania’s Mr Blue, Amani, Redsan, CMB Prezzo, Jua Kali, Nameless and many other artistes.

Many theories have since emerged owing to his mysterious disappearance. While some allege that he was terrified of the end year exams that were nearing, others suggest that the star was shacking up with an old lady in ‘Mogadishu Ndogo’ aka Eastleigh, with the rest insinuating that he living large having been kept with a white lady from Italy- all of which have not been proven.
