'Firstly, I'm a big fan of your work...'

I must be the worst journalist ever. Especially interviews. When I interview someone, I give them the most sweetheart questions you can imagine. It’s like I’m the ZBC interviewing Bob Mugabe.

Bands, property developers, beautiful women, men who picked up 28 bricks in one go… I just can’t bring myself to give them the third degree.

Part of it’s because I like to see the good in people. The other thing is that sometimes these people are famous, and you’re a fan. So you end up starting your interview with AKA going, “Dog! That Jealousy joint is the bidniz, yo!” And it doesn’t get particularly probing after that.
