School children recreate Konka with DJ Black Coffee and the man himself loves it

In other Konka-related news, Briefly News previously reported that going all-out, school children used their imaginations to recreate DJ Black Coffee’s set at Konka Soweto. The lit music event left many raving about it on social media and these school children must have caught wind of it.

Social media user @Humbu30 shared the sweet clip on the TL, showing the amazing work these kids did. From fake lashes made from paper to a whole DJ deck, they missed no finer detail. The kid who played the role of Black Coffee was something else though. 10/10.

After being tagged multiple times, Black Coffee himself watched the clip and was living for the energy the kids created. Others also took to the comment section to share their thoughts and they were not vibing with school children pretending to be at the groove.
