Following the now viral interview of American singer Ari Lennox with South Africa’s own MacG on his platform; Podcast and Chill, Ari has promised never to visit South Africa ever again.
Videos of the interview have done the rounds in which he asks Ari some very inappropriate questions which visibly shocked her.
She had demanded that some parts of the podcast be deleted but according to her the producers of the show broke their promise. As a result, she is bitterly disappointed and has vowed to never set foot in Mzansi.
She said that she had never in her whole life been asked such a “distasteful and predatory question.”
It looks like this has caused SA Twitter vs American Twitter war.
South Africans are getting major backlash in the US following the uncomfortable exchange between the host and the singer. However, local social media users are not having it and have taken to the Twitter streets to defend one of their own.
While many social media users are definitely not in support of Mac G’s inappropriate questions, they just could not have American Twitter coming for our country like that! Check out some of the very entertaining comments below:

“***Strategy number 1*** When American Twitter attacks we talk our African language they don’t know their roots and language.”
