MacG, once again, divided opinion on social media following an interview he had with US R&B singer Ari Lennox.

Watch: MacG startles Ari Lennox with ‘sexually-charged’ questions

The virtual chat between the South African podcaster and Ari was meant to be a special moment for the songstress’ fanbase. Ari has had a great relationship with South Africa, up until now.

However things quickly went south when MacG nonchalantly asked the songstress about her sex life. It was not the question itself that offended Ari and scores of others, but the manner in which it was framed.

Instead of teasing a steamy conversation by respectfully probing the singer about her love life, MacG went for the jugular and asked, “is someone f****** you good right now?”

Ari could not hide her shock.. While MacG cackled on, completely unaware of the discomfort he had caused, Ari could barely muster up a comprehensible sentence as she admitted later on in a tweet that she was absolutely caught off guard.

Another moment in the interview left a bitter taste in the mouths of Ari’s fans, one which, we believe, she was completely oblivious to. MacG lured the songstress into teaching her a Venda phrase.

Of course, Ari, an African American, was ecstatic about the idea and blindly repeated MacG’s words, which, when translated to English, meant:

“MacG, I want to f*** you.”

The songstress took to social media to vent about the disrespect she felt and, naturally, fans of the polarising podcaster descended on her mentions, amplifying the vileness.

Here are some of the reactions from South Africans who weighed in on the MacG x Ari saga:
