Jim Iyke, Kate Henshaw, and Chidi Mokeme during interview

"Late night shoot or early morning shoot?"

Chidi Mokeme: Late night shoot.

Kate Henshaw: Early morning shoot [laughs].

Jim Iyke: Late because nobody is seeing me the next day.

"Lagos or Abuja?"

Chid Mokeme: Lagos

Kate Henshaw: Lagos

Jim Iyke: Abuja. I'm the only one that lives there.

"High Life or Afrobeats?"

Chid Mokeme: Afrobeats

Kate Henshaw: Afrobeats

Jim Iyke: Afrobeats

"Intense monologue or hilarious comedy scenes?"

Chidi Mokeme: Intense monologue!

Kate Henshaw: Intense monologue!

Jim Iyke: Hilarious comedy scene. You have to laugh. It's the secret of life.

"Detty December in Lagos, or Calabar Carnival?"

Chidi Mokeme: Lagos. During Donald's time, I would have done Calabar carnival.

Jim Iyke: Lagos my dear, Calabar is played out. You can always be surprised in Lagos Detty December, but Calabar, we know it's a straight line.

Kate Henshaw: I would have said Calabar carnival during Donald's time, but I will go with Detty December in Lagos. After Donald left, it all went down. It was nice before. Now you're not missing out, before you were.

"Wizkid or Burna Boy?"

Kate Henshaw: I plead the fifth

Chidi Mokeme: Fifth!

Jim Iyke: I plead the fifth. We just show love.

"I mean, come on!"

Jim Iyke: You know what? Fuck it! I would go with Davido.

"I didn't ask Davido. Davido is not on the table. I asked Wiz or Burna?"

Jim Iyke: No wait, Burna is my boy na, what are you talking about? Burna is my pick

Chidi Mokeme: Yeah, Burna

Kate Henshaw: I will pick Burna Boy even though he's crazy. He's July like me, so I'm partial like that.

Jim Iyke: He's good crazy

Chidi Mokeme: Unhuhn! So we all like crazy?

Kate Henshaw: Yeah!

Jim Iyke: Yeah! [laughs] Crazy is what makes us. You can't be sane and do this job.

Chidi Mokeme: Yeah I tell you, you can't be sane.

Kate Henshaw: See, you gotta be crazy to be in Nigeria oh. You can't be normal oh, they go look for your problem oh! Na person wey dey tear shirt na him them dey run from [laughs].

Jim Iyke: So Burna, I didn't know Burna was an option. Burna

Chidi Mokeme: Burna!
