ZAlebs reports that the star is thrilled to be given the opportunity to publicly roast AKA without having to hide behind the veil of the Twitter streets. 

"To be the first female Roast Master in Africa and first black woman globally is a great achievement. To AKA – we’ve talked a lot of mess on Twitter and in private, but now we’re going to settle this in front of the world, with no one to protect you. This is deeper than rap beef. It will be on stage and to your face. I honestly can’t wait. Oh, and I won’t be alone as I’ve got a team of Roasters with me. So poetic. Just remember: Composure, composure!” she said. 

By looking at the trailer, it's going to be fire emojis for this episode!
