DJ Esona Maphumulo, son of Grammy-award winner, Black Coffee who recently filled New York’s Madison Square Garden’s 20 000 venue to full capacity found himself scolded by many X (Twitter) users for calling his father by his stage name.
Radio host, DJ and property investor Themba Nkosi famously known as DJ Euphonik was among those who scolded the young DJ.
Esona took to the social network to share a picture of the special jacket his father wore at The Garden which had embroidery art of his maternal and paternal grandmothers as well as his mother. He also shared a picture of a pair of expensive Louis Vuitton sneakers his father wore at the show.
He then captioned his post:
“Dj Black Coffee, Madison Square Garden.”
