“People have occasions, like, ‘On a Sunday I might play jazz’,” he continues. The last thing we were doing is a bursary, taking a kid to college for every year until they finish. Hugh Masekela worked with him on his third album. All of this Maphumulo had achieved despite a serious disability. DJ Black Coffee performs during the Idols SA season 12, top 4 performances at the State Theatre on November 13, 2016 in Pretoria. People will say, ‘It sounds different, it sounds like you’. He’s particularly impressed by the next wave of artists coming up at the moment (see above).“A month ago, I was in the studio with David Guetta and we did a song, and it looks like, it’s not confirmed yet, but we’re going to hopefully have London Grammar on it. We’ve just been plugging into people’s plans. One example is, my team was saying, ‘This year, how about we put a lot of artwork on the billboards and maybe a few Black Coffee pictures?’ To them, it’s like it’s done, we’re in. We also understand how we consume things. This year we had to prepare and see what else we can take on board. New; 1:00:01. And so did the other ones after it. I remember doing an interview while I was there, and they said, ‘Where do you see yourself in two years’ time?’ I said, ‘In five years, I’ll be one of the most important producers of this country’. It’s the most amazing thing for me to have that African vibe in the work that I do.”Black Coffee’s 2005 remix of Masekela’s song ‘Stimela’ would be an early breakout hit for the DJ/producer, drawing an explicit connection between South Africa’s musical past and future. At the time I didn’t even think I’d work with him.
I had a clear picture of what I wanted to do. For me to get to wherever I want, I need to put in the hours, work twice as hard, than someone who is ‘normal’. While they might feature tracks by Berlin house and techno specialists Henrik Schwarz or Dixon, or New York sensations Bedouin, they’re mostly composed of young South African producers: one way that Maphumulo stays a step ahead of the competition. It was far from house, too. I’m trying to convince everyone. Radio wouldn’t touch us. They could even run a petition to be signed by the public, that could help also,” he added. "His springboard to fame was in 2003 when, after studying jazz at Durban University Of Technology and continuing to DJ, Black Coffee got the chance to attend Red Bull Music Academy (RBMA) inwith legendary, late South African jazz trumpeter Hugh Masekela.A spirit of collaboration and co-operation underpins so much of what Black Coffee does. For me, it was a positive thing. Soulistic Music will remain, and everyone that’s there now, we will try to help them create a structure.”As a DJ too, Black Coffee is always searching for fresh artists to populate his sets. “I’ve been blessed with a gift in music, but I also understand how far I can go, and wherever I end, I bring someone else to take it to the next level. “But if you feel like it, you can play it any day. ‘I’m Universal, I’m BMG, EMI’. “I’ve sold so many records, I’m at a point where I don’t have to prove anything to anyone,” he says. Last year we came and plugged in, just played the music, now we’re trying to create an experience on the night with a futuristic, Afro-techy sound. “We’re creating a mood. So I was in a very fortunate position. After seeing the demand for Master KG’s song Jerusalema first-hand while abroad, DJ Black Coffee has ignited a movement on Twitter to get the Samas to add Master KG to its nominations list. “Have you seen the stadium? We try to bring as much texture and colour and beauty, vocals. But upon having back and forth conversations, we’ve realised that the building that we have is not enough. God is no fool,” Cassper said.The DJ reasoned that the Sama organisers should find a loophole or create one so that they can include the song, because it deserves a spot there.Kaybee even went as far as saying he would give up his award for Song Of The Year to Master KG – should he win it.ZNA spokesperson issues a statement on the Kuwadzana swarm of bees attack issueMaster KG celebrates 30 Million Views for JerusalemaThe DJ, who is currently overseas on a European leg of his world tour, shared a few days ago that he was getting requests to play Jerusalema at his gigs.The truth about getting abs with fitness bunny Sai Phifer: Pics On Saturdays, the vibe is different.”After his recovery, Black Coffee made a decision: to not let his disability ever hold him back. So what I said there was a prophecy.”“From the beginning I wanted to make house music the way I feel it, with all the influences around me,” he says. “I wanted to do my own stuff a bit more. We never had a song that was faster than 115bpm.
