Black Coffee throws shade at Zakes Bantwini’s new song
Briefly News reported that Black Coffee was roasted by Mzansi social media users recently when he threw some shade at Zakes Bantwini’s new song called Osama.
After many raved about how incredible the song was, Black Coffee also chipped in and said it was great.
He then added that he would not be jamming to it because he preferred the original version. ZAlebs reported that when he was questioned about his statement, Coffee posted a video of the original song.
His post, however did not go down well with social media users and many felt that the musician was jealous of the attention Zakes was getting:
One particularly unimpressed user named @phethani4 said:
“Black Coffee must leave us alone.. He decided to make music for Europeans, let Zakes Bantwini take over. He is not the alpha and omega of house music in the country. To paraphrase the late president Mugabe let coffee keep his Ibiza we will keep our kunye, house 22 etc. Hands off!”
Many other Mzansi peeps shared the same sentiments.
