Black Coffee, born Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo on 11 March 1976 in Durban, is a celebrated DJ, songwriter, and record producer. He grew up in the Eastern Cape, where his mother, Faith Dandala, raised him alone after separating from his father.

He moved to Mthatha at eight, where their home lacked basic amenities like running water and toilets.

He recently announced his plans to return to school to study interior design. The 48-year-old had previously dropped out of college at 23 to support his family.

On February 11, 1990, the day Nelson Mandela was released from prison, Black Coffee suffered a tragic accident when a speeding vehicle ran over the crowd, resulting in the loss of use of his left arm.
