His music choices are obviously paying off

In response to the backlash, the DJ spoke on Ukhozi FM, explaining that he would just let his music speak for itself. And it certainly has!! The success of Subconsciously so far is phenomenal and fans are taking back their words.There’s no doubt now that DJ Black Coffee has gained worldwide acclaim for his music, dominating the international scene with his unique choice of beats and amazing collaborations with the very best names in the industry. And now his face is lighting up the streets of the biggest cities in the world! Way to go DJ Black Coffee! We are behind you!
