Black Coffee has once again come out to speak about his controversial Israel performance, stating it was not meant to be political. It was to help with his global reach.
In a recent interview with IOL, he reflected on the show.
“I think in my career‚ it was my third time playing there. The first two times were in a small club called The Block. This year was the first Black Coffee Show and it was in a park. We had 6‚500 people – it was sold out. This is why when I came back‚ for me‚ it wasn’t anything political. It was big for me as an artist to have this reach in a different country.”
At that time, Black Coffee responded to public outcry and told his haters to get off.
His friend, AKA came to his rescue.
“At the end of the day‚ I have a real life that I need to live. I have dreams and aspirations . I have a daughter and a family. R3-million could change my whole circumstance. I am sorry‚ but in life there are times when it is every man for himself‚ whatever your political stance.”
