The renowned DJ had an interview on Ukhozi FM where she got candid about the collaboration and the importance of representation.“In my mind, I dance like Slenda and I am able to dance. When I look at myself, it did not turn out that way. And I told Slenda that the best thing we can do when we collaborate is not try to mimic each other. We need to be who we are, because there is someone we see themselves in us. So representation is very important in every industry. Someone must be able to look at something and know that it is possible.”
