South African DJ, Black Coffee Comes Clean About Infidelity Saying, “A Man Will Always Be A Man.”
DJ Black Coffee who was in the news few years ago after it was reported by Sunday World that he cheated on his actress wife, Enhle Mbali with a model and aspiring businesswoman, has finally opened up on the scandal that nearly rocked his marriage.
Speaking about the incident to Metro FM‘s DJ Fresh on Friday, the 42 year-old award winning South African DJ said that when one is young, sometimes sudden fame could overwhelm and lead one to person to slip.
DJ Black who disclosed that he was grateful for the lessons he learnt and he was now more “woke” than before, added that he grew up as a kid that had nothing but he was determined to be a star‚ and when he suddenly found fame and attention, it became overwhelming.
“A man‚ being a man‚ will always be a man. But now when you add the attention from the opposite sex‚ it can be blinding. It is something you will never be immune to as a person.
You can try your best and every now and then it’s going to catch up with you. The love becomes overwhelming as a person. You become overwhelmed with everything‚ the success. Before you get used to everything‚ you slip up.”

“With the tabloid stuff‚ it is a reminder of how human one is. Not just being written about but from also the mistakes one makes as a person. It is something that people should understand when you are dealing with someone who is as real as I am.
My realness doesn’t stop anytime when the cameras are off or the microphones are off. I am real all the time. Being real means I make mistakes. Being real means I get angry. Being real means I get emotional. But everything that has happened has been a wake up call and a lesson.”

“A sister did me wrong. I heard comments such as ‘she thinks she’s perfect‚ even Beyoncé gets cheated on’. My own sisters make their way to my husband’s inbox in the industry and out of the industry. The very same sisters that I fight for‚” she said.
Enhle also took the opportunity to ask why women were selective about what forms part of “sisterhood”.
“This is the truth I wanted to speak of. How deep is our womanhood? Are we only sisters when we need something from each other?
Are we only sisters when I don’t want your man or the job you have? Or the shoes or clothes you have? Where does our womanhood start and where does it end?” she asked.
Since the incident, Black Coffee has committed to being a better partner and often showers his wife with gifts and loved up messages.
