Gareth Cliff was outspoken as ever in this weekend’s issue of the Sunday Times. In the article, Cliff gave his thoughts on the careers of legendary South African FM radio DJs, Alex Jay and Barney Simon.
In the article, ‘Time to wake up without Gareth,’ the topic of his career direction came up:
What’s the option for me? Either I invent the future or I become like poor old Alex Jay, who’s a lovely chap and who was a legend in his time, but now has a show on some AC station, slowly withering away.
Or Barney Simon, who used to say he ‘would never play commercial music, I’ll only play rock’ and now he’s playing fucking Roxette on Jacaranda for a pay cheque. Do me a favour.
Gareth Cliff is expected to make an announcement about his next venture on May 1.
