Winky D is not an ordinary man he's actually a life coach anyone with me put a like

[@planet263suweta4]

Winky d is a good example of the diference between: 1. a celebrity and a role model 2. a mere musician and an artist 3. being clever and being wise

This guy is different, I am a mother and I steal my son's flash disc or phone to play Winky's music. It makes a lot of sense. I respect his career and wish him all the best. Looking forward to more music. Thank you Trevor for a job well done. I listen to his songs and they inspire me to work harder towards what I want in life , I changed from looking up to other people to hand me my success, I decided to leave my "Ejipita" ndega and look for other available opportunities to make it in Zimbabwe.

Winky D is a firm believer in his talent. He simply said I don't need to pay big jus to feature an acclaimed music giant, jus for the hype that I sang with so and so, yet in the books I would have lost around US50 000, woow this guy is such a role model.

[@chikambure]

Winky D is right. he does not need validation from artists from outside Zimbabwe to gain recognition. He is a giant in his won right; and it is incumbent upon us as Zimbabwean to put his music on the international map. Tuku did it on his won; and the international artists came to him for validation. You do you, Gaffer. We are with you.

[@anywaydungwa527]

But does it mean kuita collabo with some1 from outside is validation seeking?

[@shingiraimugambiwa3369]

Many people here are failing to understand that the fluency we are commending here is not of the queen's language because even some native speakers cannot present themselves the way he did so it is the fluency in ideas, composure, ability to answer questions appropriately, ability to clarify misconceptions around some songs assumed to be political though we know they are but for the sake of peace with the junta you need to have a sobber defence😂 which he did very well. Weldone Gaffa

[@macroberthchidongo4719]

[@tafadzwagora9290]

You have a wrong definition of fluency there! All the same Winky is articulate. In actual fact people are referring to the ability to speak easily in English and I wonder why Zimbabweans are obsessed with that.

[@shingiraimugambiwa3369]

@@tafadzwagora9290 The definition of Fluency according to the Oxford dictionary of contemporary English is "the ability to express oneself easily and articulately"

Trevor is the only one I have seen so far who has been able to conduct a "proper" and fluent interview with the living legend Winky D (correct me if I'm wrong and provide me with the link to other interviews). Winky D is talented ohhh God and he knows how to separate the brand Winky D from the individual Wallace. God bless this treasure of ours

[@funfun7916]

Trevor wacho is actually very good indeed. He is quite composed anoziva basa rake. He is hardly moved by emotions and is quite cool indeed. Uyu anogona basa rake he is quite mature. Even politically, when interviewing people he takes no sides. All he does is just interview whoever factually.He is one of a kind and deserves a round of applause from us.

Thoroughly enjoyed his show when he came to Melbourne AUS a while ago! Great interview, validated or not us Zimbabweans love you!!!!

[@mafitnk]

I must say , This Gentleman is the most progressively evasive Zim Celeb I have watched. Intimately informed and aware of the mechanics and sinkholes. Impressively sure footed and sufficient to the tug in the war for greatness. I hope he studies further and can be a good jab to our arts & culture. I will however, say I remain curious on his reference to annointing . It will be interesting to understand his faith cohesion with the conflict the rasta movement bares in our zmbabwean community. Over and above Winky is truely a Ninja, as slippery as derere and harder than mhandire... lol... was fun...

[@doreenrumbidzaitivenga3289]

Thanks Trevor, this was quite an interesting interview. So much wisdom and maturity in the responses. I got so fascinated by the way he was denying that he sings politics, opting rather for social commentary and reiterating that "people will look at things differently...its fair and fine its beyond my control." I feel that is a wise way of ensuring your safety as a musician in Zimbabwe, more so, there is a thin line between social and political life. Winky is a treasure for sure, now let me go and look for "The Willie Lynch Letter."

[@rumbidzaichoga2390]

Yes diplomatically denied the political aspect of his songs 😂😂😂
