Those who regard the Gafa as awesome. Leave a comment here🔥🔥🔥
Thank you
Gafaa
I like e way he commented on e jah prayzah question... Gaffa i Gaffa boyz.
Thank you
To us who are still watching the coversation
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
Also being in music industry vs music business
Kubaya Dede nemukanwa
👏👏👏👏👊🏾
Winky is intelligent. Fluent and possibly well educated!
he is not well educated believe me..Winky D is a school paari, he is learned rather. He is a natural genius
Thank you all for watching and sharing. We love to hear from you. We read all your comments and appreciate your engagement.
You are doing a great job Trevor. Mis Red, Gideon Gono, Muchadei Masunda, Hopwell Chin'ono and now Winky D are on my favorite list
This was for the 1st tym in history to get winky d be open the way he did murichiextra mdara
@@SLAMETAKSTV thank you
Just subscribed, Gafa igafa
Thanks Trevor. You mean business in your interactions. To Winky, you are an informed artist. Keep focused and give the good staff to the people.
Who listened to this and went wooow. 🙋

GAFFA is smart
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂
@k_ Sorofa ehe
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. Kutsvaga manake kuti mhuri irarame. Thank you Winky.
Hallelujah
😂
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
🤝
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.
@@tafadzwagora9290 The definition of Fluency according to the Oxford dictionary of contemporary English is "the ability to express oneself easily and articulately"
I dont think kugona kutaura chirungu is a problem..

this interview should be watched by the whole African continent
Winky D is so confident and knows how to answer controversial and subjective questions . This guy is one of the best in our time
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.
But does it mean kuita collabo with some1 from outside is validation seeking?
First interview in a while I have played without skipping or fast-forwarding. #Gaffa #haisikidsgame
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
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. Both of them na W.D. are our national treasures.
The bigman is 💥
Ndopano winner Winky apa, he's smart, eloquent, confident and disciplined.
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.
He has values and morals. Respect to him
He is intelligent that's why l love him
True.......Remember the late Prince Tendai lost more than 200k brining Sean Paul and Akon 10 years ago
I went to Rukudzo school my head master. Mr Mapira
Will come back every now and then to enjoy the comments. Why can't we create ministry of Zim dancehall and make wink D the minister and the spokesperson. I am totally smitten.
The dude is something else he is good
Have always respected Winky and after watching this interview my respect levels just went higher
U are telling the truth same to me
I will actually start listening to his music.
nyangwe akandituka ndototamba ngoma racho
This was the best Interview because Trevor was not Afraid to ask questions and the questions are those we have never heard before, they opened up Winky D
Fact 🤝
True, I know we know from his music but good probing from Trevor now we very certain Winky is very Philosophical
💯👏🏽
Whaaaaal thank you Trevor for dragging this bigman to your studio he's powerful.
And i quote "winky d is the genesis of my names...... Mukuru makadzidza henyu hamuna dzungu.. I am one person who defends yu like i knw yu personally..
Wakanyanyaweee
Very eloquent Thanks Trevor for bringing in Winky D. I now have respect for this guy.
Winky D is smart... I liked the way he tackled Trevor’s political questions 👏🏻
Even me
Trevor "You (Winky D) are a national treasure".
Thanks Trevor demystifying Winky D!
I just like the way he always says ‘the annoiting’ he understands that his talent is not his own but God’s Gift. Thats why he is so humble.
Love how he answered the 'Jecha' question... Hands down!!
A lot of zimdancehall artists can learn a lot from this interview
Kwete zvekungonzi imbotipawo freestyle but just engaging conversations. This is such a breath of fresh air
Wow👏👏👏
The part about us always seeking validation from other countries. I completely agree
Zimbabweans should support Zimbabwean artists for them to be great. If the thirst for seeking validation is a lot let's support them enough so that they gain recognition. Not focus on feuds
Me on this interview today trying to understand Winky D unpack his journey...since his 2023/2024 show....awesome interview!!!
Thanks Trevor. Winky's response to the questions was smart.
Winky is well spoken, composed and represented his brand brilliantly. Other artists can learn a thing or two.
Life yangu magaffa i photo inoumbwa nema negative. This guys avoidance of drama makes him unique. Gaffa i Gaffa

I feel like litsening to this interview again 💗.
well articulated,he is surely a national treasure
One of the greatest and insightful interviews; intelligent and canvassing through many aspects of the People's favourite, Winky D.
Proud to be from the same hood - Kambuzuma, the guy represents so well, sober, down to earth and smart besides the talent for all of us to enjoy
Yesaya chamhamha
at 28:26 Winky punches hard... he knows that some things said are a result of research and hence he goes for the punch when he sees someone reading out his favourite songs forgetting earlier mentioned favourite song... that's intelligence and the ability to discern knowledge, love and research
Hahaha ndapanzwawo he is intelligent
You spotted it right.
I noticed that too
Thumbs up Gaffa.Now it makes sense chirungu chepaExtra Terrestrial neArea 51 ndechemashuwa.
You are right there
Blessed magafa. The way the guy is chilled ka unotofunga kuty haasiriye anoimba

Shuwa iweee kkkkk very cool bt kana akuimba anovhundutsira sei bt haa guy is gud.
Srs
this guy is a green book, a specimen
Winky D passed through OXFORD. Kudos to Mukoma Trevor for bringing us the fountain of Wisdom, Intelligence, Eloquence, Smartness and Creativity at its Best !
What is so special about Oxford! What is special is that he passed through the dusty streets of Kambuzuma. Those streets are what made him whom he is today. Kwete zve Oxford izvo!

Ha ha ha sekahako mwana wanyamunhu😂😂😂
I love the acknowledgement of Kukonzeresa as the first song to scoop Zimdancehall award in 2007.Kwete kuita chi ndini
my best from you is Number 1, why, you took my son to the studio to do that piece.The boy is my Profile pic.
winky d is a real musician wow so steady and confident on an interview
Chigafa only artist who never dissapoint🔥🔥🔥🔥
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...
"We were the kind of people everybody would look down upon" Winky D 2020. Story of my life. Thank you Winky.
Best interview ever. 🙌 please bring him back again
If its not the 5th time replaying this interview, hope Mr Trevor u'll bring him back again so soon❤❤❤❤❤
I love it how Winky D was saying 𝗨𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲. So considerate. You are a Legend.
Winky will never lose his culture even in his music...I quote him on this interview, "even my dad vaitoziikwa kuti kana ava vasvika midzimu inodzika".
He is so composed, calm and collected. President of the ninjas
Self reflection on myself, being humble and privacy is key. After watching this am changing my ways
Winky D is a great outspoken not only a musician but a model.Thanks Trevor for being an outstanding interviewer .
Good interview there. Winky D is intelligent and actually very commercially aware than majority of artists in the world.
Work of Art
Lengendaldo remashuwaldo 🇿🇼🔥🚀💃
Thoroughly enjoyed his show when he came to Melbourne AUS a while ago! Great interview, validated or not us Zimbabweans love you!!!!
Now thats what we call a talk show give your guest time to answer ...respect Mr Ncube
Akon once said, "before I am a musician, I'm a businessman" I could see that this is exactly what winky is. I love how he's considering the business side of his music
Ndink ndega ndaona this whole interview here
Tese wangu
Winky D was very clever to run away from politics. This guy is the real deal. Well done winky. Thank you Sir Trevor
ini ndangosanoisa like ini chazonyaso idzokera kana ndave settled kkkk

As sophisticated as always. Winky is amazing at interviews, he is very smart in the way he answers his questions with humility and precision.💝🙌💝
Eureka 💡✅
Ga Ga Ga Gaaaaaaaafa! chi Xtra! am here for the 5th time

Trevor knows how to interview......🔥🔥Gaffa rapindira

Thanks to Hopewell s post and all I can say is Winky D is unmatched 👌🏾. He acknowledges God and gives credit to his struggle. One focused man who is on another level.

I am a Mozambican based in Vietnam and I daily listen to Winky D’s songs
Man the day I discovered your music should be blessed.
Music was a passion and a calling for this guy,otherwise he would have succeeded well academically
R u saying he isnt educated..?
@@belindanomakhosimali7085 he actually means the opposite of what you said
Yes yes yes He is quite an ambitious artist. He can further up his education to earn him a title to be a professor Mr so& so in music or to have a PHD zvichingodaro daro he is actually very good am really impressed.He is already a star maybe anotori ne degree ku music academicalLy I don't know much of his life interms of his education.
Smart interview,we should change our mind set
Gaffa..🇿🇼🔥🙏 impressive.blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly
apa Chillspot inozviti ndoyakstanga neZimDanceHall..... thanks Gaffa for clarifying that
Haaaaa chillspot inofana kungotaura kuty we pushed and still pushing Zimdancehall to the next level. Zvekutanga haaaaa ngavanyarare

His level of intelligence guys... Wow
Stay woke brother. Thank you for bringing him Ncube
Moana
Woow so informative, how did I miss this interview? Gafa all time, so cool and collected. Respect for Winky D.
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."
Yes diplomatically denied the political aspect of his songs 😂😂😂
Insightful comment, Dr Tivenga. This is your field of expertise, after all!
I like how he almost always says we when responding to questions signaling how he views the Winky D brand to be not just him
There aren't many who undertastand Winky D, even among his music Fans. I think the only way to undersand him is when you listened to him talking of his amazement when he looks up to the night sky. Every intelligent person ( I mean those who are not stupid) wonders about the cosmos, about what lies above us which noone so far has given an explanation. If you are a grass hopper your world is only two dimensional, your worry is merely the availability of green grass. That is not Winky D. Trevor himself shows he does not understand him. He said he lives in a cacoon. Why ? Because he is not the type to be easily swept by the hype. This man is not a musician persea. He is somebody who, because of circumstances, found a little hole thru music to out himself. Otherwise the greater part of him is not yet in the open.
It's true
ALPHA❤
you are such a Historian (Great Zimbabwe)
Thanx for setting the record straight on why you dont respond to social media coments .kwete kut munhu akaita chaaita oto poster pasocial media
True ikozvino mukomana murefu arikurakashwa kuTwitter
What an interview!! Good questions from Trevor. Intelligence and wisdom coming out of Winky D. Taking good care of the business side of things is very important. He surely drank from the best.
Conversation yakaenda kuprivate school... Kwete zvana "waiziya" "yehman" thumbs up elder Trevor and the bigman himself ... Very inspirational and educative...
im so excited gafa akuita these kind of interviews.... low-key chilled and so on his level 💯
A year after this he won two international awards.1)Best Dancehall Artist 2020 Award at the African Entertainment Awards United States of America (AEAUSA) 2).Best African/ Dancehall Entertainer International Reggae and World Music Awards (IRAWMA). The best Zimbabwean dancehall reggae artist in my world. good to see the world realizing our national treasure. surely he doesn't need international collaboration to be recognized. thanks, Trevor for this interview I always come back he and there.
Here again another year later 2 more international awards,,,,,indeed THE🐐
He is a gem
I really love the wisdom and knowledge especially when answering to the collaboration aspect. He knows where exactly he wanna be. Not to look for hype with a bankrupt bank account
Haaa dai muri vamwe masiyana nemunhu uyu , haasi wezera renyu 😁
This guy is freaking intelligent! I mean just listen to his music. Just AMAZING!
This is one of the greatest gift in our nation. he is so inspiring. i love the fluent and the way he articulate issues. Well educated gafa
It cant be a coincidence twice 🤣🤣🤣🙌🙌 haaa winky anotopedza ma sports
