Sabelo Mtshali, also known as DJ Sabby in music circles, has expressed pleasure in bagging his new slot on Metro FM.

Mtshali says he has always dreamt of presenting a show on the popular SABC radio stations and that lifelong dream has come true.

As quoted by Sunday World, the DJ will host The Bridge and wants to do well as he makes his debut and hopes to bring a male voice to the show.

Mtshali will be on air between 9am and 12 midday on Fridays starting on July 1, he fills the void left by the departure of seasoned broadcaster Dineo Ranaka who joined Kaya 959 over a week ago.

“I am thrilled. I am ecstatic. I am happy. It has always been a dream for me to present for Metro FM, and finally making it to the weekday show with millions of listeners everyday is living my childhood dream,” said DJ Sabby.

“I have been preparing for my debut as if it will be my first time on the radio, because this is something I always looked forward to. I never knew it would come in just more than a year after I joined my favourite radio station.

“When I was informed, my body collapsed. I felt like my organs were just dancing, nervous and excited at the same time. A moment I will never forget.”

Speaking about the challenge ahead of him, the radio jock who made his brand in the Metro FM Top30 show on Saturdays, admits it will not be an easy path for him but he will engage his listeners through different emotions.

“I am going to learn and figure it all out, I am going to share my experiences and take the listeners through all things emotion, because around that time, we are all going through different emotions and want to talk about it,” he added.

“No show can change who I am, people should expect the same DJ Sabby from the weekend because I am yet to play some feel-good music.”
