The media personality and hype man Timeless Noel has proved to the world that single parenting is no challenge. Being a son to a single mother, after his father passed on the late year 2018, he showered his mother with an overwhelming message showing that she is the best.
Through his Instagram account, he wrote; “This is one of my best day. It’s mother’s Day. Mom, the fact is, billions want to have you as their mom but God choose me to be your son.

I will make you proud with my life, I’ll support you coz you support me. I will show the world that you are the best mom ever. Happy mothers day NYASEMBO AHERI.”
Timeless became widely known after he came up with odi dance. You may be shocked to learn that Timeless is not his real name. He revealed during an interview where he said;
“Its a stage name I coined 10 years ago when I founded a dance group, Air Force, together with my friends who were passionate dancers. At the time, I was a first-year student at the University of Nairobi and having a catchy stage name was synonymous with standing out. I think I settled for a good one.”
Talking about how he came up with the odi dance, he said; “Odi is a name that’s popular in the ghetto which means ordinary. As a dancer, I wanted to create simple moves that ordinary people could dance to and it took me between five to seven years to create the moves.
I started with the footwork then named the moves “Odi” after realizing how much people loved them. This gave birth to Odi dance challenge which went viral and caught the attention of International artiste French Montana.
One of my friends, Hype Ochi put words to the dance challenge and that’s when it hit me that we could actually make a song out of the moves. I collaborated with him and X Jabidii and here we are.”
Timeless was a secular dancer before he became saved; “Getting saved wasn’t one of the things I was planning to do. I was settled as a secular dancer. However, one night in 2012, I encountered a bus preacher who told me that God had a great purpose in my life.
I didn’t take his words seriously but later that night I found myself down on my knees and surrendered my life to Christ. I thought it would be easy. After all, He had a great purpose in my life, right? I became so broke that if I had a note in my pockets, I’d be smiling like someone who’s just won a lottery. When I look back, I’m grateful for how far I have come.”
