Black Coffee Slammed For Performing For A Maskless Crowd Amid The Pandemic
Black Coffee Slammed For Performing For A Maskless Crowd Amid The Pandemic. South Africa is currently battling with the Covid-19 pandemic that has taken the lives of millions of people around the world. In saving lives, the government has put regulations in place to curb and prevent the spread of the virus. These regulations include wearing masks in public places and keeping a social distance of at least 2 metres. It has been over a year now since the first case of Covid-19 was recorded in the country, however, even today some people still fail to adhere to the rules.
Black Coffee is been slammed again for not respecting nor adhering to Covid-19 rules and regulations. The DJ is again in the spotlight, this time it’s after videos of him DJing a packed event in Cape Town, went viral on social media. The videos on Twitter reveal Black Coffee at The Silo Hotel, while the crowd nor the star himself was maskless and not keeping the social distance as the government urged.
Marketing and communications manager at The Silo Hotel, Ross Bowers said the hotel was completely booked out for a private function over the weekend. “The whole of The Silo Hotel, including all accommodation, was booked out privately on Saturday in accordance with Covid-19 regulations and restrictions on capacity. All protocols were adhered to on arrival and check in. Because it was private, the hotel was closed to the public,” he said.
A concerned social media user shared the videos with a caption: “I’m looking at ig stories and watching what looks like a Black Coffee gig happening at the Silo Hotel with not a single mask in sight and I’m wondering if Cape Town wants a third wave because that is how you get a third wave.”
While one social media user replied: “Ppl are dumb and selfish. For 2h? of fun they are willing to jeopardize their and their families health. Think they need to take a really good and deep look into themselves and ask themselves what kinda ppl are they. But I’m guessing they are incapable of that.”
