A retired journalist from the RTÉ newsroom has embraced a unique challenge by recording his own rap song titled 'Big News', in collaboration with comedian Oliver Callan and the Kabin Crew. Though it was new territory for him, he successfully delivered the performance live on RTÉ Radio One. The song features a playful mix of news commentary and humor, reflecting on his transition from news to music. The veteran journalist shared his experiences since retirement and his ongoing projects, including a documentary on Ireland's missionary work.
The former journalist admitted that recording his own rap was "unchartered territory" for him, with the children at the Cork-based Kabin Crew working with him on the song 'Big News.'
He quipped about his return to RTÉ, saying, "It felt just fine, it's great - because I'll get to leave again in a little while."
