Grammy-winning South African DJ and producer Black Coffee is set to perform in Lagos on April 5, 2026, in what is shaping up to be a major moment for the city’s growing electronic music culture.

The event, organised by MEntertainment and DAPO, is part of a broader push to showcase Lagos as more than just the global home of Afrobeats, while spotlighting its rising influence in house and electronic music.

Born Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo, Black Coffee has built a global reputation as one of the leading figures in Afro house. The Durban-born DJ has graced some of the world’s most iconic venues, including DC10 Ibiza and Avant Gardner, cementing his place on the international stage.

According to the organisers, the Lagos show is part of a continued effort to grow the city’s electronic music community by blending global talent with local audiences. Over the past two years, similar events have been staged to build momentum in the scene.

One standout moment came in March 2025, when M:E Entertainment hosted the “Rampa Lagos” show featuring German DJ Rampa. The event also saw appearances from Afrobeats stars Burna Boy and Olamide, highlighting the growing crossover between electronic music and mainstream African sounds.

Organisers believe the upcoming Black Coffee performance will further strengthen Lagos’s position as a key destination for house music in Africa, complementing its already dominant influence in Afrobeats.

In recent years, Lagos has evolved into a major hub for music and nightlife, attracting both international performers and a vibrant local audience. Promoters say the city’s electronic music scene—once limited to niche club spaces—is now gaining wider recognition and appeal.

With a global career that spans festivals and venues across Europe, North America, and South America, Black Coffee’s Lagos appearance is expected to draw fans from across the region, marking another step in the city’s journey toward becoming a continental hotspot for electronic music.

As 2025 winds down, the Starboy camp is closing the year like a team that refuses to take its foot off the accelerator.

Wizkid has already been sweeping up year-end streaming awards across Spotify, Apple Music, and Turntable’s radio charts. But on Tuesday, his right-hand sound architect delivered one of the label’s biggest wins yet: DJ Tunez has officially been crowned Nigeria’s most-streamed DJ on Spotify in 2025.

The recognition, pulled from newly shared data, is more than a personal triumph. It’s another reminder of the Starboy machine’s grip on the continental music scene, an empire that seems to glide at a height few can match.

The numbers appeared via Africa Facts Zone on X, igniting a mini frenzy on social media. The post highlighted Spotify’s top DJs by monthly listeners, a modern metric that neatly reflects influence, reach, and cultural relevance.

As expected, South Africa’s amapiano giants filled the upper ranks, maintaining their status as Africa’s most exported sonic powerhouses.

Still, Nigeria made its presence felt in the elite tier. Both DJ Tunez and DJ Spinall earned spots on the list, further validating the country’s expanding footprint in the global DJ ecosystem.

Top African DJs on Spotify (Monthly Listeners, as of December 9, 2025)

1. DJ Maphorisa (South Africa) – 5.3M
2. Master KG (South Africa) – 3.8M
3. DJ Tunez (Nigeria) – 3.55M
4. Kabza De Small (South Africa) – 3.4M
5. DJ Yo! (Mauritania) – 3.34M
6. Jazzwrld (South Africa) – 3.29M
7. Shimza (South Africa) – 2.8M
8. Black Coffee (South Africa) – 2.75M
9. Nitefreak (Zimbabwe) – 2.24M
10. XDuppy (South Africa) – 2.238M
11. Tyler ICU (South Africa) – 2.18M
12. Kelvin Momo (South Africa) – 1.93M
13. DJ Spinall (Nigeria) – 1.89M
14. Major League DJz (South Africa) – 1.7M
15. Uncle Waffles (Eswatini) – 1.5M

Despite South Africa’s ironclad hold on the global dance scene, this was undeniably DJ Tunez’s moment. He stands as the only Nigerian DJ in the top ten and Africa’s second most-streamed DJ overall, firmly stamping his status as the country’s undisputed number one.

And Tunez responded in pure Starboy fashion. Without a single word, he quote-tweeted the ranking with the iconic Michael Jordan “I’m Back” GIF—a subtle flex that sparked another wave of memes, shout-outs, and jubilation across the timeline.

For Starboy fans, it was déjà vu: another day, another win.

Black Coffee has spoken out about his ex-wife Enhle Mbali’s unappreciative reaction to an expensive car he bought for her during their marriage, which disappointed him.

In a recent interview with Kaya 959, the Grammy-winning DJ claimed that the reaction he had upon presenting his gift to his wife was unexpected.

He recounted how he anticipated tears of gratitude and joy when he presented her with the expensive gift, but instead was met with a cold and ungrateful response.

He claimed that the experience made him feel as if his efforts were not valued or appreciated.

“The response wasn’t what I expected; she wasn’t excited. I expected her to even cry, but she was just like; ‘Oh, nice, thank you.’ And it sat with me heavily for a long time as someone who was not appreciating,” he said.

Recall that Black Coffee and Mbali’s marriage ended in 2019 when she accused the record producer of infidelity and abuse.

During their marriage, the singer had two children with different women.
