“The only reason why I changed my mind is cause it had to be Metro FM, it had to be a radio station that will allow me to be black in the way that I know how to be black, Highveld Stereo tried to change me, I didn’t feel like I fit in at 5FM, I was miserable,” she said.

Dineo went on to add that she is grateful for the opportunity given and that seeing her role models in different industries breaks her heart, “I still sleep painfully at night when I think of the dreams that I’m chasing and the time and the day of being caught in the studio for three hours.

It stresses me that all these people that inspire my vision for self, are not on the radio, they’re populating their time doing other things, and here I am doing radio…but can I be honest with you, God showed me that, you don’t make the rules…
