Black Coffee shared in part, “15 years ago around this time, while struggling to pay for rent and to make ends meet I was working on this (unofficially) remix of this gem by Thandiswa Mazwai originally produced by the King Don Father Spikiri.”
He continued, “I didn’t really have a plan or a contact on how to submit it to the label so it could be official, but I continued to work on it with so much faith that these big artists will eventually hear it and approve it for release, fast forward to a few months later with the assistance of the Legendary Oskido who gave me my first recording deal for my album, my self titled debut album was released in 2005.”
