"I don’t know what level this is, but it’s above Super Saiyan. It’s Brenda Fassie-ish, Stimela-ish. The majors are doing major now."

Ifani went on to say that when he was broke and jobless, he used to hate hearing Sjava's voice. For many people, Sjava's music has always served as a source of hope and inspiration.

In this context, Ifani may have hated Sjava's songs because he either couldn't relate to the music or because he compared his career to that of the Umama rapper.

"I used to hate hearing your voice when I was dead broke. Now it gives me hope."
