    I simply cannot explain my pride and joy when I heard Steven at 42:20 say the Eastern cape. Representation absolutely matters, representation at this level snuffs out all the air out of your excuses, true and valid as they may be. The seat at the extraordinary table is occupied by the same guy essentially but to know that one of your own is just as capable to confidently hold their own there, lands very differently! Steven in as far as the South African market of this podcast is concerned, you have outdone yourself with this one mate. You introduced us to one of our own😭

    So surprising to see you've interviewed Black Coffee. Met him at one of his first UK gigs with Tribe here in London when Afro House was very much underground, and subsequent London DJ gigs. Honoured to be interviewed by the BBC for my passion for SA House Music, with special mentions to Black Coffee and his collaboration with fellow Londoner Nathan Adams.
    I love his earlier music, when he was part of SHANA and then his solo endeavours. Will be keeping those Vinyls for life. Great DJ with an incredible journey.

    Truly an amazing inspiration and he always knows how to create an amazing energy and vibe. What a gifted person. To be honest, I've seen tones of sets of Black Coffee, but I never noticed his arm. I was in absolute gaze of the energy and the crowd control.

    Nathi seems like the most chilled, down to earth person one could meet, not everyday you see people being able to draw the distinction between the persona and real self and the correlation to true life. Your upbringing is so important.

    Hey there, as a entrepreneur and hobby dj, from Rio, based in Copenhagen i must share that this is one of the best episodes, but not because of any my personal reason. It is a story of someone dedicated an unstoppable, and was not silver spooned. Only a few can understand the amount of drive, talent, and self reflection. Cheer for this amazing person. True black gold

    Nathi!! Thank you for sharing. I will be showing this interview to my 10 year old this afternoon. She is currently dealing with arthritis in her left knee, recently diagnosed. And for her as an incredibly active and sporty child this is a very challenging time. Strangely enough she is very talented musically, she does the recorder and the piano and I do think she is going to find some solace in the world of music as we navigate this situation. You, simply sharing your story, will make a difference in someone's world. Much love from South Africa. Thank you for just being you.
