When Papa Penny released the first video, many were puzzled about who he was referring to, seeing that both DJs had played his song before.

Grammy-winning DJ, Black Coffee, once included one of Papa Penny's classics on his set in Miami, and Bushida made a remix to Papa Penny's song and posted it on social media.

"Stop confusing the names. It is not Black Coffee, it is Bushida Coffee. Correct the mistake because you guys are spoiling Black Coffee's name. It is not him."

Speaking to Briefly News, Bushida Coffee said Papa Penny reached out to him, and they will be working together.

"Yes, he reached out and we spoke about going into studio and working on a project."

Bushida previously told Briefly News that Papa Penny's anger was misdirected as he meant no harm. He even said the remix is loved by many and that he is willing to work with Papa Penny to release it.

"However, even though I deleted the song out of respect, I do not think he should have lashed out at me like that without even listening to the song.
"The song is completely different from his song. At the end of the day, I am a great producer, and I am not desperate to release hits. I will not be releasing the song.
"The song is a hit, and should Mr Papa Penny be willing to release it, we can work on it and make people dance. I still have the song, which has the potential to be great, and I am open to sharing the rights provided all is done in a peaceful manner."

Netizens weigh in on Papa Penny's video

Fans have come to Papa Penny's rescue online, while others made light of the situation. Some even joked Papa Penny was served lawyers' letters.

@lenyasalaafrica said:

"It was never Black Coffee. The video he made was clear who he was mad at, so there’s no way lawyers could come for him after listening to it. Maybe some advice is that 'yo groutman people are confused and dragging Black Coffee into this'.”

@ashmelaa said:

"Penny Penny never claimed it was Black Coffee in the first video. He knew who he was talking about and the guy even apologised for remixing the song without permission. He actually took it down."
