Interview: Swizl Jager
There's a certain poetry in the fact that Swizl Jager exists because of BurgerFuel. Nikora Edwards - rapper, boom operator, “uncle” - entered a BurgerFuel competition on a whim about 15 years ago, needed a name, picked Swizl Jager, and won. The rest, as they say… These days, he's part of the Hiko trio Uncles alongside Rei and Plastic Pounamu. With a new single out and two Matariki shows coming up fast, we caught up with Shyness, kids' TV, and why the world is only just catching up to what he's been doing all along.
