While tweeps have been waiting to watch Black Coffee's interview on the Podcast & Chill podcast, the group revealed people will have to head to the movies to do so. 

The interview with Black Coffee will premiere nationwide on February 23 at Ster-Kinekor cinemas across the country.

The announcement drew mixed reaction on the socials, with some not sure they would want to head all the way to a cinema to watch the interview with the Grammy- winning artist.

“Going to cinema to catch up on celebrity gossip,” tweeted one user, whom Sol Phenduka put in his place: “Classic Darkie. Just let other kids enjoy the experience. PS. We could never reduce Black Coffee’s story to just 'Gossip'.”

The Grammy winner had hinted a while back about visiting the podcast and he kept his promise. 

Late last year Black Coffee opened up in a series of tweets about his mental anguish.

He said he hoped that in 2023 men would know it was OK to break down, cry and ask for support. He urged men to go to therapy and talk about their feelings.

“Going through some of the comments makes one realise why most men bottle things up and some even take their lives. I hope you listen and offer support to men in your lives when they show vulnerability,” he told his followers.

Black Coffee said he still carried “pain and shame” after his ex-wife Enhle Mbali accused him of abusing her.

“The day my ex accused me of physically harming her, nothing was the same. It has left a heavy void in my heart — a void I can’t shake off. I lost a big part of myself. No court of law could ever fix the pain and shame I still carry today.”
