The DJ must be pleased that people's attention is finally on something either than his separation from actress Enhle Mbali.
Four months ago, Briefly.co.za reported that Black Coffee said he was tired of people poking their noses into his divorce.
He said, “I don't feel I owe anyone anything. I am not the first person to be in this situation. No-one is dead. No-one is abused. Nothing terrible happened. We just decided this is where we want to be. But the public feels they should have a say, to a point where it is sometimes disrespectful."
