Must Watch! Black Coffee Pays Tribute To The Late Victor Ntoni For His Help In Elevating His Career – Legendary jazz musician Victor Ntoni was known for his impeccable skills on bass, but more so for his composing and arranging of music.
Black Coffee is a multifaced creative, has long built a career with house music and a flitch of jazz. He’s always had a sound that’s equal part house and jazz. But nowhere was this expressed as beautifully than on “Wathula Nje,” which attributes the late Victor Ntoni.
With it’s a rubbery bass line, soft percussion and jazzy piano melodies, this single is classic and Black Coffee reminded us of its beauty. He would later go on to record a live version of the song which featured a 24-piece orchestra.
Ntoni discovered inspiration for his music and compositions from township culture; the corner street vocal groups and big bands who played at social gatherings and shebeens.
Watch the visuals below:
The Legend of Victor Ntoni and Africa Rising.
Africa Rising was one of the most special moments in my career to date. Seeing our country rally around this vision was a real blessing. Having some of the biggest legends from Africa be a part of it was more than an achievement…it was fulfillment. RIP Good Sir ??♥️
