South African DJ, Black Coffee did something a bit different for his birthday this year. Black Coffee used his birthday as an opportunity to bring together some of the most influential South Africans from different industries in what he called the 'Black Coffee Luncheon'. Some of the invitees include the 'Good For That' hitmaker, Cassper Nyovest, the duo behind 'Shoota Moghel', the Major League DJZ, Boity Thulo and more. Everyone made sure to come looking the part with the usual suspects like Riky Rick coming through looking dapper while Scoop Makhathini and Reason went with a more traditional inspired look.

The Corona virus is officially a pandemic but of course black twitter couldn't resist making light of a very serious situation. I mean, what is more South African than having a dark sense of humour with DJ Zan D and Rashid Kay doing just that. On the other hand Sizwe Dhlomo and David Tshabalala used Twitter to tell us what they think of current President, Cyril Ramaphosa.
If it wasn’t for Corona Virus, I wasn’t gonna know the word “quarantine” #covid19SA #CoronaVirusSA

Would I be wrong to suggest a masquerade party?

It's not all doom and gloom in this feature of What SA Hip Hop Said. PDotO announced that the music video for 'You Don't Know Me' is on the way and if the pictures are anything to go by then this is definitely one to look out for. Musiholiq shared a picture from the music video shoot of Big Zulu's "Amamillion Remix." The remix has features coming in from from Zakwe, YoungstaCPT, Musiholiq and Kwesta and by the look of it, everyone managed to make it for the shoot.
IN Every Video I Try to Tell A story beneath The Surface there is No Difference with This One.

Al made me realize that I sell myself way too short sometimes. If I were to die today, I'd be so happy that I've had the privilege to work with so many brilliant musical minds. I'm super grateful to have made a significant contribution in SA music!!
