Globally recognized DJ and producer Black Coffee is preparing to showcase his distinctive style and mission at this year’s Africa Is Not a Jungle Benefit Concert.
This event aims to honor African artists while contributing support to underserved communities. It is scheduled for November 8 in Durban and November 29 in Johannesburg.
A portion of each ticket sold, specifically R20, will go to the Black Coffee Foundation to assist with various community development initiatives.
The 49-year-old Grammy-winning artist emphasized that this project transcends mere entertainment, focusing instead on fostering a long-term impact through creativity and kindness.
Lungi Maphumulo, who leads the Black Coffee Foundation, characterized the concert as a blend of enjoyment and meaningful action.
“Each ticket sold is more than access to a once-in-a-lifetime experience; it is a contribution toward building opportunity and hope for those who need it most,” she remarked.
She indicated that the concert signifies a movement where “music, culture, and social responsibility converge,” inviting audiences to see how African creativity can inspire social change.
Since establishing the foundation in 2010 at Maponya Mall in Soweto, Black Coffee has actively leveraged his platform to promote charitable causes.
During the pandemic, he successfully raised half a million rands to support relief efforts, and earlier this year, his foundation aided in the reconstruction of homes and provided assistance to victims of flooding in Mthatha, Eastern Cape.
Through Africa Is Not a Jungle, Black Coffee is continuing to bring together music enthusiasts while effecting a positive change in the lives of many.
