DJ Fresh got me a Star School sponsorship for a Saturday school programme which helped me improve my maths, science and english... That contributed to my very good matric results that lead to me going to tertiary and now a professional in the industry... Beginnings...❤
Wow!!! its funny how mainstream media will never report such beautiful stories. Im a former student of Star schools as well, those lessons were fire!!"
There is something about DJ Fresh, i am not sure if many understands how big of a deal this human being is, his conversations are different, the man paid people from his own pocket but not benefiting anything from that. I have been praying for this interview, i still can't believe it has happened. Man i could say a lot, but Thato Sikwane, you are a legend, i can't think of anyone that is bigger than you in my own understanding of things, i miss seeing you drive through Francistown to Bokalaka on festive season. We love you DJ Fresh and that will forever be the case.
It's really difficult to hate DJ Fresh,He is having that thingy. I pray to God that all these allegations are not true. I love him but I hope he doesn't hide behind his charm to abuse women. Gawd I love him,pls tell me he is innocent so that I wouldn't have any doubts.He is so handsome ,glowing,charming,intelligent,talented etc etc so why would he force himself to women unless if he is demon possessed.Fresh if it's false, I will give you my warm hug,you are loved 😍.
|||No wonder they want him rot I jail for shit claimed to had done, ppl hate you for doing good thing to other humanbeings even though broadcast it for every body to know.!!
More than 20 minutes on Fresh rape allegations. No one emotional. Every question answered properly ❤️. This is was worth it. Big up to Fresh and MacG, 👌
Two professionals at work here. MacG kept coming with the most uncomfortable questions without fear or favour, and Fresh remained cool under pressure and answered precisely. This is why this will forever be the number one interview for me. These two should open a broadcasting school
Nothing comes close to it. In fact, not mainstream show can even try to do it. Is Channel O putting it up? Or they are chickening to the pressure from the feminists?
Am also part of the Big Dawg Legacy, was part of the first students who benefited from his bursaries studied Media and Journalism at Rosebank college through his funding. These guys gave us their numbers to call them whenever we ran out of food or anything. never used the number was also scared but i graduated. Thanks Big Dawg. Thanks MacG and Sol for the interview.
i'll confess this now too - I stopped listening to Metro FM when Dj Fresh left, and I stopped listening to 947 when he left as well. Needless to say, I don't listen to the radio anymore. Thank goodness for the Podcast. this was a really beautiful interview of truths and learnings. I wish you all the best with the court proceedings Fresh - may the real truth be revealed at the end of it all.
I am glad MacG is asking this questions, most of us grew up hearing stories about Fresh ....Men needs to hold eachother accountable and ask this questions....
But MacG ene still hasn't addressed the article relating to his arrest after allegations that he assaulted his girlfriend or baby mama. Or is it personal?
MacG really went in with the rape allegation questions, for a minute I felt like I was the one on the hot seat. However big ups to him for trying his level best to speak about something so sensitive and not making Dj Fresh uncomfortable
This interview was therapeutic for Fresh, him laughing like that and just opening up was so nice to see and you can see that the allegations took a toll on him
lesson here don't pay too much attention on social media what people are saying about u guys...just walk outside it's a different world people are actually loving what u do...hugs and selfies are waiting for you guys. loving this podcast.
Get sound proof panels to reduce the echo and reverb - you can take them wherever you go cause you just hang them there like pictures. Very easy to make; like ones in recording studios
I think it was last year when another was praising & celebrating MacG then he said he doesn't want that to get into his head. So I'm guessing "allowing" to be celebrated automatically & psychology makes him a celebrity.
Has anyone ever noticed that whenever any Celebrity or anyone mentions how big Mac G is he quickly brushes it off and moves on to other things? Look at his reaction when Fresh tells him that he has been his fan since Craze days. Mac G please allow yourself to be praised...which one is this one? Hahahaha
Sol is a genius and i hope he knows it. Fresh is an extra ordinary human being, I used to look forward to #FreshDeeds segment during his time at 947. Much love and respect!!!
Omg that profound statement of a train towards the end resonates with me in so many ways. This was epic and I couldn't get enough of you guys. Thank you for the phenomenal interview 🙌
I thought MacG will be scared to ask certain questions because he is a big fan of fresh but he didn’t hold back. Big up to MacG for asking all the relevant questions.
That was an epic interview. I used to do the basketball update with Udo on Fresh’s show when Proverb was the producer. It did a lot for basketball in this country. Thanks for asking the tough questions but for also sharing Fresh’s story. We needed to hear this.
Great interview.. Inasmuch as we have huge problems with GBV in RSA! There's also a huge chunk of people who are victims to false rape allegations and these unfortunately are overshadowed 😭
MacG has done his part. Its a pity that we are dealing with such nonsense as a country n now we dnt even know who or what to believe anymore. We need to re-evaluate our morals as people coz we are dividing the human race.
Dj Fresh is right, when he left Metro I stopped listening to the breakfast show. I now just play music on my way to work. Enjoyed this interview so much.
Listened on Spotify and I'm back here again I can't get enough of this interview, I'm sure even on Monday when I go for a jog I will listen to this interview via Spotify while running
Lazy desktop journalists will watch this episode more than once (or ten times), just to pick what would be a selling headline in the Sunday papers. That is the world we live in . In fact, some are starting to pick few seconds clips, just to push their narrative. Lately, all the profiles about our heroes are taken from this podcast.
I see people saying MacG is immature, not realizing that that's his genius coming out coz he pretends that he's ignorant to make people comfortable ...
Intelligence and maturity are two different things,you'd understand if you were mature ..there are many intelligent but immature people,know the difference,and yes he is immature,pretending is very immature (no matter what reason you do it for)"to make people comfortable"as you say.
If he is a good father, pays his bills, takes care of his family, his pretty much mature to me, I don’t care how controversial he is, their banter is what makes us laugh, yes there are inappropriate comments here and there like the Thando Thabethe and Boity comments but generally it’s light jokes. We have become too sensitive in SA and perhaps I understand why but I love that in this interview, they made fun of him as well and he laughed it off.
@@smoothkay2724 but neither do you though. So to judge someone based on him doing his job and define his character is just the same as me judging his fatherhood based on their vlogs. Okusalayo we all have zero basis of these guys’ personalities based on their on screen personas.
Great interview. My only concern though is when an interviewer asks questions with pre-meditated answers. If you screw groupies that does not mean everyone does that.
I was very apprehensive about this DJ Fresh interview, you know, because its difficult to look at someone the same way once allegations of this nature have been made against them. But, I'm glad I did. I think you handled this very well MacG, I love love love love how you asked him point blank. Even when he shifted in his chair, you stuck your guns about the alleged "rapey" tendencies. Thank you. Im on the fence about my personal feelings towards Fresg because if this thing hanging over their heads, but, watching and listening to this made me keep an open mind. And FYI, very seldom do I have an open mind where abuse is concerned. That said, the man has done tremendous work, some of what he said resonates with me, especially the part about grabbing an opportunity and running with it. That landed! N.B. I also think he has money for days 😂
I performed Live as an opening act where Dj Christios; Dj Ganyani and Dj Vinny Da Vinci were playing This OG’s are so humble it’s unbelievable; sat with us at the band’s table and just jelled to the conversation we were having - No superstar tendencies; condescension; instead they were like just rooting and so encouraging to the band like they came there as fans - how they were with the crowd too; genuine; patient; taking picture after picture without feeling irritated A lot to learn from this living libraries✊🏾
I'll never look at Dj Fresh the same way i did, after watching this Podcast, I'm amazed by his level of intelligence and reasoning 👌🙏🙌... Thanks to Mac G and his team, now we get to know these celebrities on a more personal level and how they think. Not how the media sometimes makes them out to be ❤🥰. A living Legend 👌
The first time going to a club was in Dublin and Dj Fresh was in the house, I have pictures I took with him because he gave himself time to take pictures with his crowd. I love his personality. #LEGEND #. be blessed man, much love......Ireland
Sol has always been a beast, i remember his show on YFM with Eda Rose. I feel like radio DJs on YFM were/are the truest version of themselves, unfiltered, the likes of Dineo, Tholi B, Ankletap, AYANDA MVP, Sizwe, Mantsoe etc
I really don't know why I cried so much watching that part ya Fresh of "what you want to remembered as" man I just remembered all the things people say to me about how I've changed or positively impacted their lives man...I hope we took really good care of how heroes!!! #Legacy is everything!!!
I cried bafethu after hearing Fresh refreshed himself on his besday and niggas helped pulled through. It's easy to talk from a space of privilege but the impact Big dawg. I'm in awe
thank you to this podcast for asking Fresh the questions alot of people wanted to ask, because no one wanted to touch Fresh and them after the allegations.we were asking for answers and in this interview thats what we have been given. and those people who were saying Macg was asking dumb questions. what better questions would you have asked if you better than him?
